All 27 member countries of EU see BiH in this community, Head of Delegation of EU and EU Special Representative to BiH Peter Sorenssen stated at the regular session of Association ''Circle 99'' today, commenting on doubts that EU is tired of expanding, especially when Western Balkans is concerned.

Speaking on ''How to make year of 2012 EU year for BiH?'', Sorenssen emphasized that he fully agrees with statement of Chairman of Council of Ministers of BiH Vjekoslav Bevanda that it is possible to make the year of 2012 a year of European integration for BiH.

"We in EU believe that BiH is a European country. Do you believe that? There is a lot of work ahead for BiH politicians which can be done. BiH is not the only country with complicated constitutional system. What is important is internal agreement and I believe that BiH is on its way to reach it'', Sorenssen said.

During his address to intellectuals gathered at the Association, Sorenssen said he was convinced that citizens of BiH are committed to membership in EU. He presented results of some polls pointing that over 70% of citizens find joining EU is good for the state and themselves.

"This should be motivating for politicians of this country'', he added.
