Dear Mr. Barbarez,

On behalf of the Federal Ministry of Culture and Sports and on my own behalf, I extend my sincere congratulations on your outstanding success so far at the World Cup. Your results so far represent the greatest success of the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team in this competition and are a source of pride for all the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

With dedicated work, unity, sportsmanship and fighting spirit, you have shown that hard work, discipline and faith in your own abilities always pay off. You represent BiH in a dignified manner and are an inspiration to the younger generations of athletes. The fact that the team is carried by young, very young football players speaks of the heart and strength they have, as well as the maturity, responsibility and character that transcend their years, because youth is not an obstacle to greatness, but its bravest weapon.

I wish you a lot of luck, strength and success in the continuation of the competition. May sports luck continue to accompany you, but above all discipline, dedicated work, heart and togetherness that you show on the field every day. Team bonding, mutual trust and willingness to fight for each other are the values ​​that make you special and have led you to this historic success. May those virtues continue to guide you through the next challenges and bring many more reasons to be proud of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

We believe in you and proudly follow your next performances, convinced that you will continue to represent Bosnia and Herzegovina with dignity on the world sports stage. And let’s not forget: “The strength of the team is in each individual. The strength of each individual is in the team.” Good luck!
