Its ambassador meets young entrepreneurs, politicians and separatists in Kashmir

Food, tourism and education are three areas underlined by Bosnia and Herzegovina Ambassador Sabit Subasic in Srinagar to forge ties with conflict-ridden Jammu and Kashmir.

In the first-ever visit to Kashmir by any Bosnian authority since its independence, Ambassador Subasic met young entrepreneurs, students, businessmen, politicians and separatists.

“It’s a dream come true. It was my childhood wish to see Kashmir,” he said at a function organised by the Kashmir Youth Entrepreneurs Federation here on Thursday. “J&K and Bosnia and Herzegovina share similar scenic beauty... We can share our expertise with each other.”
