Bosnia and Herzegovina during the mandate of this government cannot and will not recognize Kosovo's independence, said today the Minister of Foreign Affairs Igor Crnadak, but expressed willingness to talk with Pristina about simplification of visa procedures and mutual recognition of documents.

"Our decision is that we cannot and will not recognize Kosovo within the mandate of this government on the BiH level, but life must go on in a normal way as much as possible," said Crnadak for Anadolu news agency.
