Why this matters

The potential collapse of BHRT, Bosnia and Herzegovina's public broadcaster, is significant as it threatens media pluralism, public access to information, and potentially the country's communication infrastructure. As a public service, BHRT's demise could undermine democratic processes and national cohesion, especially if it indeed owns critical communication repeaters.
