Erdogan meets members of Bosnian Presidential Council

ANKARA

Bosnia and Herzegovina's Presidential Council members on Thursday paid an official visit to Turkey at the invitation of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Erdogan received Chairman of the Council and Serb member Milorad Dodik, and Bosniak member Sefik Dzaferovic of the Presidential Council in an official ceremony held at the presidential complex.

The Presidential Council in Bosnia and Herzegovina has three members, representing Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats. The members are elected for a period of four years and rotate every eight months.

Thursday's visit is the first since Dodik and Dzaferovic were elected last October.

The Croat member Zeljko Komsic could not travel to Turkey due to his health problems.
