The Czech Republic has long been interested in the Western Balkans. One of the Czech activities is supporting the demining process in Bosnia and Herzegovina. On 16 June 2023, J. Chmiel, Ambassador of the Czech Republic to Slovenia, and Tomaž Lovrenčič, Director of the International Foundation ITF Enhancing Human Security, signed an agreement on the Czech financial contribution to the demining of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Demining includes, among other things, teaching about the dangers of mines, helping mine victims and destroying mine stockpiles.
