European Commission President José Manuel Barroso i met with the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo on 8 April. Following his meeting, he noted that he "received a clear message: Bosnia and Herzegovina wants to become a member of the European Union. I also replied with a clear message: Bosnia and Herzegovina is a part of the European family and has a European future. A common vision and common desire is crucial to address the reforms that are key for progress towards the EU. The EU is ready to help you through its reinforced presence and policies, and substantial aid. But Bosnia and Herzegovina has to do its own part."
