The COVID-19 virus pandemic has brought many additional problems, despite the difficult living conditions of the Roma community in Republika Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Republika Srpska Ropma Union President Aleksandar Masic says the situation is still ongoing. - Everyone knows that the Roma are engaged in collecting secondary raw materials and textile trade. But even that was stopped, and the Roma found themselves in catastrophic conditions as they do today. We received food packages from various donors, he said, and thanks to the good cooperation with international organizations, we distributed food packages in Prijedor, Banja Luka. Modrica, Bjelina, Lopari and Gradiska. - UNICEF helped with sanitary packages, and the other is the result of good cooperation with European organizations - said Aleksandar Masic.
