SARAJEVO, July 18 (Xinhua) -- Around 69.9 percent of citizens in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) would vote in favor of European Union (EU) membership if a referendum were held, according to a public opinion survey released on Friday. However, the rate has declined by 1.3 percentage points compared to last year.

The survey, conducted in June 2025 by the Directorate for European Integration, sampled 1,200 respondents across the country. Support for accession is strongest in the Federation of BiH (82.9 percent), followed by the Brcko District (71.3 percent), and lowest in Republika Srpska (46.1 percent).
