This bridge is the symbol of the city of Mostar and the opening ceremony coincides with the 10th anniversary of the start of the European Union reconstruction of Mostar. The Commissioner will, together with the High Representative Lord Ashdown, hold an open discussion with students from both Mostar universities. He will meet returnees to the former frontline which used to divide the town, largely rebuilt by the EU and visit the Youth Centre “Centar za kulturu” reconstructed by the European Union.
Il rencontrera des rapatriés revenus s'établir sur ce qui fut naguère la ligne de front divisant la ville en deux et en grande partie reconstruite par l'Union européenne, puis se rendra au centre de la jeunesse «Centar za kulturu», également rebâti par l'Union.
