Tihic, who is president of upper house of parliament and leader of the main Muslim party in Bosnia, the Party of Democratic Action, said Bosnia’s “strategic interest is good and friendly relations with Serbia and other neighbours.”

Tihic is one of the first senior Bosnian officials to visit Serbia in recent years.
