Tuzla, 23 September 2025 - Ambassador Rick Holtzapple, Head of the OSCE Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina, attended the official opening ceremony of the Centre for Verification of Deactivated Firearms at the Ministry of Interior of Tuzla Canton.
The opening of this state-of-the-art facility, developed under the OSCE’s project “Addressing Security and Safety Risks of Illegal Possession, Misuse and Trafficking of SALW and their Ammunition in BiH,” marks a milestone in strengthening public safety and security for BiH citizens. Equipped with advanced equipment provided through the Project, the Centre will enable BiH law enforcement agencies to more effectively verify and certify deactivated firearms, preventing their criminal misuse.
“The Centre is not only a contribution to Bosnia and Herzegovina’s security but also a vital step in enhancing safety and security across Europe. For communities and businesses across the country, this means greater trust and stronger security in homes and neighborhoods”, Ambassador Holtzapple emphasized. He highlighted the value of the progress achieved thanks to the Mission’s longstanding partnership with the Ministry of Interior and the Police Administration of Tuzla Canton.
Mr. Dževad Korman, Director of the Police Administration of Tuzla Canton thanked for the support of the OSCE Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina and donor countries, through which the necessary financial resources were secured for the construction and equipping of the Center with the most modern equipment for verifying deactivated firearms. “This will enable the Police Administration to consistently implement the Law on Weapons and Ammunition in the Tuzla Canton,” he added.
Representatives of Germany, France, Czech Republic and U.S. also attended the ceremony, providing indispensable financial support for the creation of the Centre.
Lieutenant Colonel (GS) Marc Abendroth, German Defense Attaché in Bosnia and Herzegovina, on behalf of the donors underlined: "We are proud to back this OSCE initiative, which strengthens the capacities of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s institutions, making the country safer and more secure." He added that Bosnia and Herzegovina and partner countries can implement the German-French Western Balkan roadmaps framework and together strengthen European safety and security.
The Centre contributes to Bosnia and Herzegovina’s implementation of the OSCE’s long-standing principles in arms control and co-operative security, while reaffirming the OSCE’s commitment to helping the country reduce small arms risks and strengthen stability at home, in the region, and across the wider OSCE area.
Ongoing Mission support to BiH also includes study visits, joint training, and practical exchanges to expand verification capabilities nationwide. Moreover, the Mission continues to work with authorities to harmonize firearms laws across all jurisdictions in Bosnia and Herzegovina and fully integrate them with international standards.
Lancé en 2017 par la France et l’Allemagne, puis rejoint par l’Espagne, le projet de Système de combat aérien du futur [SCAF] est organisé selon sept piliers, dont deux concernent le développement d’un avion de combat de nouvelle génération [NGF – New Generation Fighter]. Ainsi, Dassault Aviation a été désigné pour exercer la maîtrise d’œuvre...

Après vingt-cinq ans d’efforts pour réduire sa dépendance aux combustibles fossiles, l’Allemagne se retrouve à un moment charnière de sa transition énergétique. Berlin doit décider s’il faut continuer à accorder de généreuses subventions aux énergies renouvelables ou bien revoir un système que certains jugent responsable de la perte de compétitivité industrielle du pays.

Le tronçon routier reliant le rond-point Stade au rond-point Belvédère, à Matadi ( Kongo-Central), est dans un état de délabrement avancé, au grand désarroi des conducteurs et des riverains.
Cette route, d’ordinaire très fréquentée, est aujourd’hui semée de nids de poule et envahie par des eaux stagnantes, issues du ruissellement non canalisé, a constaté, lundi 22 septembre, le reporter de Radio Okapi.
Sarajevo, 23 September 2025 – As cyber threats continue to grow in complexity and cross national and sectoral boundaries, addressing them requires co-ordinated action and collaboration. To meet this challenge, the OSCE Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina organized a conference and panel discussion “Supporting Awareness Raising on Cybersecurity Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Best Practice,” in Sarajevo. The event brought together decision-makers from BiH institutions, the private sector, academia, and civil society organizations to engage in dialogue and explore practical solutions for enhancing cybersecurity co-operation.
Recognizing the need for joint approaches in cyberspace, the OSCE participating States adopted Cyber/ICT Confidence-Building Measure (CBM) No. 14, which encourages the promotion of public-private partnerships and the sharing of best practices to address common security challenges.
Zahid Movlazada, Deputy Head of the OSCE Mission to BiH, noted that Bosnia and Herzegovina has made important strides, but significant work still lies ahead. “Bosnia and Herzegovina remains the only country in South-East Europe without a state-level cybersecurity strategy and a Computer Emergency Response Team. Adopting such a strategy and establishing a CERT would provide the country with the tools and mechanisms needed to withstand a future increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, cyber espionage, critical infrastructure disruptions, ransomware, and information warfare."” He invited participants to join forces across sectors, institutions, and borders to find solutions together and strengthen the country’s resilience.
The conference aimed to promote public-private partnerships in cybersecurity by presenting their value and practical mechanisms for development. It also sought to advance the implementation of OSCE CBM 14 by showcasing global, regional, and local case studies of effective partnerships and highlighting lessons learned from successful collaborative initiatives. Through these discussions, participants identified common goals and concrete steps toward strengthening BiH’s digital resilience.
Emina Merdan, former Ambassador of Bosnia and Herzegovina to the European Union and Head of the EU Department at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stressed that a range of technical skills and knowledge is required to detect, defend against, respond to, and recover from ICT incidents. “In this context, public-private sector partnerships and co-operation, including regular dialogue and the exchange of good practices, can contribute to building trust. While governments play the primary role in implementing confidence-building measures—both domestically and at the state level, as well as by promoting and engaging internationally, and are responsible for planning and allocating resources and adopting appropriate policies—the private sector, including technology companies and cybersecurity firms, is crucial for implementing these measures due to its technical expertise and resources, and can collaborate with governments to enhance the security of ICT products and services, as well as participate in the exchange of information and best practices.”
This conference was organized as part of the Mission’s project “Building Sustainable Cybersecurity Capacities in BiH” and forms part of wider efforts to strengthen the country’s cybersecurity resilience.
