Konjic is one of the cities that embarked on this project with USAID, and I congratulate the Mayor on that, because this is a good way to improve things on that front. We as the Federal Government will give our support, working to create an environment for our people to return to Bosnia and Herzegovina &#8211; stressed the Prime Minister of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Nermin Nik\u0161i\u0107, in his address.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, we&#8217;re here together, firstly to build trust, and strengthen connections with joint efforts, to reach a level that allows us to plan and create projects that will benefit the local community and its citizens, regardless of which meridian they live on. Due to our awareness of the fact that numerous people from Konjic, as well as hard-working and enterprising people, have achieved success in various businesses around the world, our intention is to gather this potential and value in terms of human resources, so that all this results in some new ideas and projects, which will significantly influence the development of the economy, socio-economic, cultural and other relations. Our most valuable potential is the people we have in Konjic, but also throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina and the world. This is just the beginning but I hope that by actively acting and fully engaging all the actors in this story, we will make Konjic a desirable place to live, a desirable place to invest in, and a desirable place for vacation, because Konjic can do more and better &#8211; said Mayor Osman \u0106ati\u0107.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;18800&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; I believe in Konjic, because I see that year after year it is getting better and better, and that&#8217;s why I want to do my best as a businessman to support the investments and development strategy of the City of Konjic.
