History[edit]

Following the 2022 general election, a coalition led by the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats (SNSD), the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ BiH) and the liberal alliance Troika reached an agreement on the formation of a new government, designating Krišto as the new Chairwoman of the Council of Ministers.[3] The Presidency officially nominated her as chairwoman-designate on 22 December.[4]

The national House of Representatives confirmed Krišto's appointment on 28 December.[5] On 25 January 2023, the House of Representatives confirmed the appointment of Krišto's cabinet.[6]

Krišto's Cabinet is supported by the coalition of the SNSD, the HDZ BiH, Troika, the Democratic People's Alliance and the Bosnian-Herzegovinian Greens.[7] The major opposition is the coalition of the Party of Democratic Action and the Democratic Front. The coalition of the Serb Democratic Party and the Party of Democratic Progress is the major opposition in Republika Srpska.

Cabinet reshuffle[edit]

On 18 May 2023, Zoran Tegeltija, the Minister of Finance and Treasury and the Vice Chairman of the Council of Ministers, was appointed director of the Indirect Taxation Authority of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[8] On 15 June 2023, he was officially confirmed as the new director, therefore resigning from the Krišto Cabinet.[9] On 22 August 2023, Srđan Amidžić was appointed as the new Minister of Finance and Treasury,[10] while Staša Košarac, the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations, was appointed as the new Vice Chairman of the Council of Ministers.[10]
