MP in the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of BiH, Senad Sepic, who took part in the International program leaders and the Conventions of the Republican and Democratic parties in July in the US, told Fena that is already able to clearly see and feel completely different energy and views on many important issues on these two together.

According to him, the list of priorities, and in one and another candidate's foreign policy and relationship with Europe in general were quite low, because the dominant themes of security, the economy and job creation within the United States for their citizens.Sepic says that what is particularly important for Bosnia and Herzegovina are those of the two candidates on major foreign policy goals of our country, the EU and NATO.

- Donald Trump believes that it is necessary to redefine the actual role and position of NATO, and that focus and finance should primarily linked to the state within the United States, and not to finance other, and do not see the need for expansion and new member states, while Hillary Clinton believes that NATO is one of the best investments that the United States has ever made, it should be further strengthened and open to new members, such as BiH and is considered to do so if he wins - said Sepic.

He adds that for Trump, who truly support Brexit, the EU in its current form does not need to survive and encourage a further weakening of the Union.- While Clinton, that much better understanding of the situation in Europe and has experience in international politics in general, says that the European Union is the best framework for the overall prosperity of the people and development of the whole of Europe, and the US, the EU and each state union within the EU should a setup of economic relations, and that it is a priority market opening in this area and strengthening economic and political ties - said Sepic.

It concludes that, in this respect, "may suggest the return of significant engagement and dominance of US interests in northeastern Europe with Clinton, while the Trump was noticeable stronger influence of Russia in this area."MP in the House of Representatives of the state parliament Mirsad Isakovic thinks that if he wins, Hillary Clinton, "that is to put Bosnia and Herzegovina back to the fore, that BiH would be safe on its agenda".Isakovic said that if he wins Donald Trump, "BiH will not get something special not lose." MP in the House of Representatives of the State Parliament Damir Becirovic believes that if he wins, Hillary Clinton will not come to any major change in policy by the US leads in BiH.

- If he wins another presidential candidate, then it will probably lead to a change in policy towards BiH. I suppose he has some other interests and that it is not so much interest or Bosnia or region, but it will take several other issues that are relevant to the internal politics of the United States - said Becirovic.

Presidential elections in the United States are held today, and the Americans choose between two candidates - Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump.
