  1. WTH? "Representatives of youth organizations from Serbia, Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska." ???

  2. The situation is more complicated than you may think (and not from political point, just from logical point). They asked that 2 participants can apply from each place including Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska?

    This means that 2 person from Republika Srpska will be accepted and 2 from Bosnia & Herzegovina (and those two can be from Republika Srpska too since RS is part of B&H). So at the end they can accept 4 person from Republika Srpska (and no one from FB&H)..

    Maybe you should contact them and ask again about more details. Would they accept 4 person from Bosnia & Herzegovina (2 from Republika Srpska and 2 from Federation of Bosnia & Herzegovina – two from each entity) or only 2 from the whole country?

    Best regards,
