SARAJEVO - For years, real estate companies in Bosnia and Herzegovina owned by Arab citizens have been selling what they call a “dream house in Bosnia” to buyers from Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries.

SARAJEVO - Around half of Bosnia-Herzegovina is covered by forests and wood is one of the Balkan country’s most valuable natural resources. But instead of developing the nation, some politicians and private companies enrich themselves with the profits of the ‘green gold’. Forests are cut down for private interests and governments and companies in Western-Europe close their eyes to gain cheap wood.
