The B&amp;H Council of Ministers today adopted today a decision on the establishment of the Commission for Cooperation with NATO, as well as the Reform Program to be forwarded to Brussels.

The B&amp;H Foreign Minister Bisera Turković at a news conference after the CoM session said that the commission's name has been changed from the original "the Commission for the integration into NATO" to the present name of the Commission.
She explained that the commission will consist of seven representatives from each of the constituent peoples, who will make decisions according to the same principle as it is done in the Council of Ministers, in two rounds of voting.
Turković added that the vaccination against Covid was also a topic of today's session and that "we are still in the phase of waiting for that process to begin."
-We have a confirmation that B&amp;H has a "cold chain" capacity for the storage of Pfizer vaccines, and we have an announcement that the vaccines could arrive in the next few days- said Turković.
She underlined that B&amp;H has paid the requested amount of money for the vaccines on time and fulfilled other preconditions for their procurement and that if there is guilt for the delay of the vaccine, then it is on the side of the supplier.
Turković pointed out that after the affair with the procurement of ventilators, few would have the courage to embark on the process of the procurement of vaccines through a private contractor.

A 7-year-old boy lost his life when a fire broke out in a migrant camp northwest of Athens, Greek media reported.

The fire broke out Tuesday at the migrant camp in Thebes, some 90 kilometers (55 miles) from the capital before firefighters were finally able to extinguish the blaze, according to the Greek AMNA news agency.
Several media outlets reported that the 7-year-old boy was the child of an Iranian family.
Last September, a migrant camp on the Greek island of Lesbos caught fire, leaving more than 13,000 people without shelter.

The introductory remarks of the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the "Respirators" case, in which the Federal Prime Minister Fadil Novalić, his deputy Jelka Milićević, the suspended director of the Federal Civil Protection Administration Fahrudin Solak, and the owner of the company "Srebrena malina" Fikret Hodžić are accused, were completed.
Prosecutor Mirza Hukeljić said that the company that would procure 100 respirators was known in advance. As he explained, the procedure of selecting "Srebrna malina" was based on one text message that was sent to the accused Novalić and that he did this under the instructions of a person named Asim.
The accused Fikret Hodžić sent this message to the Prime Minister of FB&amp;H Fadil Novalić.
In the introductory remarks, the Prosecution said that the complete procurement plan was devised by Novalić, and that the Solak and Hodžić were following the instructions. It is interesting, however, while in the introductory words, Prosecutor Hukeljić said that an expert witness from Great Britain would testify, who would explain what kind of respirators are in question, Prime Minister Novalić laughed, which was also pointed out by the Prosecutor.

The police of the Una-Sana Canton (USC) this morning relocated migrants and refugees from abandoned buildings in the city of Bihać to the Lipa migrant camp.

-With the arrival of warmer weather, there are more and more migrants and refugees on the streets of Bihać, which means a significant increase in the volume of work for police officers. This morning, we carried out an action of relocating more than 200 people from the building of the former company Krajinametal and the unfinished building of the Retirement Home, to the camp at the location of Lipa near Bihać. This was done to ensure more adequate living conditions for these people, and everything went without any problems- said Spokesman of the USC Police, Ale Šiljdedić.
The action was carried out in coordination with the Service for Foreigners’ Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and with the help of members of the humanitarian organization "SOS" Bihać.

A German court sentenced a former member of President Bashar al-Assad’s security services to 4-1/2 years in prison on Wednesday for facilitating the torture of civilians, the first such verdict for crimes against humanity in the 10-year-old Syrian civil war.

The higher regional court in the western city of Koblenz said Eyad A. had arrested at least 30 anti-government protesters at the start of the conflict in 2011 and sent them to an intelligence facility where he knew detainees were tortured.
The verdict gives hope to the 800,000 Syrians in Germany who say they were tortured in government facilities after attempts to establish an international tribunal for Syria failed.
-This is an important step forward in the process of securing accountability for the Syrian government’s systematic use of torture against civilians- said Steve Kostas, a lawyer with the Open Society Foundation’s Justice Initiative, which is representing Syrian plaintiffs.
The Assad government denies it tortures prisoners.

Eyad A.’s lawyers had asked for an acquittal, saying he had carried out the arrests in and around Damascus under duress by his superiors. He had asked the court to consider him a witness in broader legal efforts against the Syrian government.

The same court will continue hearings in the case of a second suspect identified as Anwar R., a former intelligence officer charged with 58 murders in a Damascus prison where prosecutors say at least 4,000 opposition activists were tortured in 2011 and 2012.
Syrian human rights lawyer Anwar al-Bunni said the unprecedented verdict would speed up efforts to bring charges against former members of the Syrian government suspected of war crimes who have fled to Europe.
-History has been made- said al-Bunni. -The first verdict against a member of the Syrian regime’s torture and murder machine is a verdict against the whole regime, not just against one individual. It gives hope that justice is possible.-

Ghana is to receive Wednesday the first shipment of Covid-19 vaccines from Covax, a global scheme to procure and distribute inoculations for free to poor countries, UNICEF and the World Health Organization said.

-We are pleased that Ghana has become the first country to receive the Covid-19 vaccines from the Covax facility- UNICEF, which organised the shipment from Mumbai, said in a joint statement with the WHO.
It said the 600,000 doses are part of an initial tranche of deliveries of the AstraZeneca/Oxford vaccine licensed to the Serum Institute of India, "which represent part of the first wave of Covid vaccines headed to several low and middle-income countries."
The West African nation has recorded 80,759 Covid-19 cases and 582 deaths since the start of the pandemic. These figures are believed to fall short of the real toll as the number of tests is low.
Frontline workers in Ghana are meant to be the first to receive the vaccine.
-In the days ahead, frontline workers will begin to receive vaccines- UNICEF Executive Director Henrietta Fore said. 
-The next phase in the fight against this disease can begin – the ramping up of the largest immunization campaign in history.-Covax, led by Gavi the Vaccine Alliance, the WHO and the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), said it would deliver two billion doses of Covid-19 vaccines to its members by the end of the year, including 2,412,000 doses to Ghana.
Schools in the country reopened in January after a 10-month closure, but large social gatherings are banned and land and sea borders have remained closed since March 2020.
Ghana's economic growth is expected to plummet this year to its lowest in three decades, to 0.9 percent according to the International Monetary Fund, from 6.5 percent in 2019.

The trial of the accused in the "Respirators" affair, Fadil Novalić, FB&amp;H Prime Minister Fahrudin Solak, the suspended director of the Federal Civil Protection Administration (FCPA), Fikret Hodzić, owner of "Srebrna Malina", and FB&amp;H Deputy Prime Minister Jelka Miličević is scheduled to begin tomorrow in the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

<h2>Who is the President of the Council</h2>

This information was published on the trials schedule. The chairman of the court council is Džemila Begović, and the members are, as "Avaz" finds out, judges Branko Perić and Braco Stupar.
20 days ago, the accused denied guilt in the corruption affair worth 10.5 million KM, which refers to the procurement of 100 respirators from China for B&amp;H.
We remind you that on December 30th last year, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina fully confirmed the indictment against these four. Novalić, Solak and Hodžić are also accused of procuring protective equipment worth 2.9 million KM.

After several months of investigation, the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H filed the indictment on December 4th last year, and then sent it to the Court for confirmation. The indictment was confirmed only after finalization.
The accused Novalić, Solak and Hodžić are charged with having committed several criminal offenses, including abuse of position or authority, receiving a reward or other form of benefit.
Milićević is charged with committing the criminal offense of negligent work in the service.
According to the indictment, Novalić is charged with using the circumstances of declaring a pandemic, as well as the capacities of the Prime Minister's authority in the Government of the Federation of B&amp;H, to devise a plan for illegal payment of budget funds for the purchase of means and equipment to fight coronavirus.
The indictment alleges that Novalić, using the powers of the Prime Minister, together with the Deputy Prime Minister, signed previously prepared payment orders on April 3rd, 2020., which was the basis for the transfer of money from the budget to the account of "Srebrna malina" in the amount of 10.5 million KM. 4,950,000 KM was transferred from the current reserve account, and 5,580,000 KM from the special account of protection and rescue funds.

In addition, the Prosecution charges the accused with corruptive activities and clearly underlines:
Purchased and delivered medical equipment (respirators, ACM812A) does not have even the minimum necessary essential characteristics for adequate treatment of patients with moderate and severe clinical picture due to COVID-19 disease, which is why its use in intensive care units is not recommended.
That is, they are not intended for use in invasive treatment, especially for patients with COVID-19 who are in critical condition and who may require prolonged invasive and high / low ventilation.
What makes this case even more scandalous, as stated in the indictment, Hodžić and Solak knew that the Serbian company "Sinofarm", with the mediation of the company from Podgorica, bought 200 respirators type ACM812A for five million euros, which is stated in the indictment as " twice lower price ''. It was emphasized that Hodžić even received counterfeit proforma invoices for ACM812A respirators from the company from Podgorica, one with an increased price of respirators of 3.9 million euros, and the other, unsigned, of this increased amount of 30 million Chinese yuan.
