Bosnia and Herzegovina must amend its state property legislation to advance the South Gas Interconnection project, crucial for energy independence from Russia. Currently, 100% of Bosnia's gas is sourced from Russia, and US company AAFS Infrastructure and Energy is interested in the project.

A proposal from the Federation's Prime Minister Nermin Nikšić seeks to exempt state property needed for public infrastructure from existing disposal restrictions. Legislative blockages, especially from the Republika Srpska, hinder progress.

The project could allow Bosnia to receive gas from LNG terminals, diversifying its sources. Construction could start by 2026, contingent on resolving state property definitions and legal frameworks.
