The Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina approved arrangements allowing citizens of Serbia to vote at polling places in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The approval removed a long-running block on points submitted by the foreign ministry. The decision was taken at a prior session held about an hour before the main meeting. It clears the way for voting arrangements that had been held up during the country’s political process. The issue is sensitive because electoral rules in Bosnia and Herzegovina involve both domestic institutions and neighboring states. The council’s vote is a procedural step rather than a final resolution of every question about the election.
