Constitutional law professor Radomir Lukić believes that the decisions of the Constitutional Court regarding property in Jahorina and Vareš are a very poor move without constitutional basis, which only prolongs the existing agony in BiH and gives hope to Bosniaks that the entities will disappear and that all central power will be in their hands.
“Yesterday’s decisions are just a continuation of a phantom decision by the Constitutional Court, which, out of nowhere, without any constitutional basis and without a single word in the Constitution about the concept of so-called state property, allocated to BiH all that is natural wealth in the broadest sense of the word, even though the constitutional concept of BiH is completely different,” said Lukić.
He emphasized that such a Constitutional Court does not contribute to the survival of BiH because its duty is to protect the competencies of BiH on the one hand, and on the other hand, also to protect the constitutionally established competencies of the federal units, or as the Constitution calls them, the entities.
“The Constitutional Court always unconditionally sides with the strengthening of BiH’s competencies, beyond the constitutionally established distribution, thus practically destroying BiH,” Lukić stressed.
According to him, BiH can only exist as a balance based on constitutional grounds.
“This policy, because this is already the policy of the Constitutional Court and not the dispensing of justice and protection of the Constitution, leads to the destruction of BiH’s fabric, and it is truly inconceivable that no one can tell these remaining judges in that court or that none of them have enough knowledge or courage to do so,” Lukić emphasized.
The incomplete Constitutional Court of BiH determined yesterday that the decision of the Federation of BiH Government to change the purpose of forest land and its temporary use for other purposes is not in accordance with the Constitution of BiH, and the same conclusion applies to the sale of real estate in Jahorina in Republika Srpska, stating that it is “state property.”
