Energoinvest demands return of €100m in assets from Croatia

Bosnia and Herzegovina is anticipating the opening of a new 20-kilometer highway section connecting Zenica to Žepče, a significant infrastructure development. This comes as political entities continue preparations for government formation following recent election results.

Meanwhile, the Eternal Flame memorial in Sarajevo, a key anti-fascist symbol, has been vandalized by unknown individuals. In legal news, Mevlid Jašarević, a convicted terrorist recently released from prison after 15 years for attacking the US embassy, was acquitted of new charges for threatening prison staff but is now subject to an extradition request from the United States.

Separately, the Bosnian company Energoinvest is seeking the return of over 100 million euros in assets located in Croatia, including 15 petrol stations.
