Milan Vukadinović, Mayor of Foča, pointed out that he had launched an initiative for a project that would solve the road infrastructure of the international road Plužine – Šćepan Polje – Foča, which would be of great importance for improving tourist infrastructure, which would precede the arrival of more tourists in this cross-border area.
