Today, together with @MinisterBZ Veldkamp, I paid respect to the thousands of people brutally murdered during the #SrebrenicaGenocide of July 1995. Because of who they were. People with dreams and ambitions. People like you and me. Today and always we remember. @DutchMFA

Today, 2 days before the 30th anniversary of #SrebrenicaGenocide, I laid a flower at Samir Mehić – Bowie’s grave. A young man whose life and dreams were scattered in 1995. Tomorrow, at reopening of Lives Behind the Fields of Death @SrebrenicaMC, his story lives on. @DutchMFA

Reforming the justice sector by rectifying systemic deficiencies is a must for BiH's EU path. A #MATRA project, implemented by @VasaPravaBih, once again stresses #RuleofLaw as the most important basis for a functional state and society. #VSTV.@eubih.@BunozaDavor .@DutchMFA

"Samir Mehić Bowie, letters from Srebrenica", a movie produced by @detektor_ba and @SrebrenicaMC, was shown last night to a new audience. Even after seeing it 4-5 times, it impresses and touches me. Very proud of this result of projects funded by #MATRA program of the @DutchMFA.

“Oost west, thuis best”, we say to appreciate where one is from. At the 10th @BookStanFest last night we were right in the centre of the worlds’ literature: NO EAST. NO WEST. #NLinBiH supports those strengthening the foundations for an open society. @DutchMFA. 🇳🇱🇧🇦

Humbled to have joined Out of Area in #Goražde this week. The real ambassadors of #theNetherlands? The 190 incredible #volunteers bringing joy to children in #BosniaandHerzegovina these days. Their dedication speaks louder than any speech ever could. 🇳🇱🇧🇦. @DutchMFA. #NLinBiH

The most powerful weapon in any democracy is the citizen who knows their rights – and who keeps asking questions. Students at #CSS did that. Thoughtful & challenging questions brought depth to our discussion on NL’s security sector, making the lecture very meaningful. @DutchMFA

The 🇳🇱 and 🇧🇷 embassies in Sarajevo hoisted the #PROGRESS flag. On #IDAHOBIT, across the globe attention is drawn to those still suffering discrimination and violence because of identity. Equal rights for LGBTIQ+ persons remain one of our key priorities. @DutchMFA
