Architecture of Mostar

Six streets in the southwest Bosnian city of Mostar named after people linked to the fascist Independent State of Croatia, NDH, in World War II, are to get new names.

While the political battle for Sarajevo still rages, attention is turning to Mostar and the prospect of a first local election since 2008.

Two of the main opposition Bosnian parties, the Social Democratic Party of Bosnia and Herzegovina (SDPBiH) and the Democratic Front (DF), are presenting a joint proposal for the reform of Mostar's electoral statute in order to end the city's political deadlock.
