Bosnia and Hercegovina 

The current ‘polycrisis’ is a chance to overhaul the EU, said Guy Verhofstadt, but Euroscepticism widens in the Balkans due to the perceived absence of the European order in the region.

Understanding Bosnia and Herzegovina requires truly open mind to fully apprehended the level of 'ethnicization'. One of the ways to break a deadlock is to limit international donations responsible for 40 per cent of the state budget.

CSE inhabitants are earning approx. 2.5 times less than the core of the EU, but if extreme cases are omitted, it turns out that most CSE countries do not compete for investors by lowering wages.

The Balkans were once rightly called the "soft underbelly of Europe" now are being explored by capital from China. 

So far British company Mineco has invested around USD55m in mining projects in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Thanks to economic growth, the banking sector in Central and Southeastern Europe is seeing profits. This is helped by the fact that in some countries banks have already dealt with restructuring bad loans.

What disconcerts people living in the region today is not the fact that they have to cohabitate in multinational countries, but unsatisfactory living conditions: low wages, high unemployment, poverty. In Kosovo 34% of residents live for up to $2 a day.

While the rest of the CEE was either rapidly moving towards a democratic capitalist model, or languishing in post-communist malaise, but a least with new political and economic freedom, much of the Western Balkans plunged into war in which 140,000 people died and economies were devastated.

Bosnia and Hercegovina will not repeat the economic success of Kosovo. The omnipresent corruption, fostered by the bureaucracy and the legal environment of companies, effectively discourage foreign investors from investing in this unstable country.
