Vaccines: Varhelyi, we care about the Western Balkans

(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAY 4 - "We care about the Western Balkans, we care about Bosnia-Herzegovina, standing by the country since beginning of pandemic. This is next leg of our common journey, hopefully out of pandemic," said in Sarajevo today Oliver Varhelyi, Commissioner for Neighbourhood and Enlargement, on a tour in the Balkans delivering vaccines to the region. "We are here to deliver all together 651.000 doses to the entire region of the Western Balkans. Bosnia and Herzegovina will receive over 200.000 vaccines only through this scheme. Together with the COVAX initiative, where the European Union is the biggest donor still, we are delivering almost one million doses of vaccines for the entire region," Varhelyi noted. (ANSA).
