Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel are set to arrive in Bosnia and Herzegovina next week for a two-day visit, the news agencies reported.

This will be one of two regular visits that the royal couple pay every year, according to the Embassy of Sweden in Bosnia.

Swedish delegation consisting of the princess, the prince and Environment and Climate Minister Isabella Lovin will meet Bosnia’s senior officials and attend a conference on climate and innovation taking place at the State Parliament’s building next weekend.

The guests from this Scandinavian country will also visit the city’s nearest mountain – Trebevic together with the city mayors of Sarajevo and Istocno Sarajevo (East Sarajevo) and meet Swedish-Bosnian entrepreneurs.

Sweden is Bosnia’s third-largest bilateral donor and every year it allocates 18 million Euros to support Bosnia’s efforts on the European Union path.

The goal of the visit is to enhance the two countries’ relations and to emphasise the potential to continue the cooperation in favour of everyone in Bosnia and Herzegovina
