Forto: Traffic enabled on new bridge three years ago, but customs still not operational

SARAJEVO, August 19 (FENA) – Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Minister of Communications and Transport Edin Forto voted against the decision to temporarily close the Gradiška–Stara Gradiška border crossing during today’s telephone session of the Council of Ministers of BiH. He argued that closing the crossing is not a solution and that it is unacceptable for citizens, transporters, and the economy to bear the cost of delays and inaction by responsible institutions.
