The politically orchestrated process against the President of Republika Srpska and the director of the Službeni glasnik, which is in reality a trial against the Constitution of Republika Srpska and its institutions, is nearing its end. From the very beginning, this process has had nothing to do with the law but has been exclusively political, and as such, it will be treated by the institutions of Republika Srpska, stated the Serb member and Chairwoman of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Željka Cvijanović.
“If Bosnia and Herzegovina were a state governed by the rule of law, this shameful political persecution, conducted through judicial institutions, would never have even begun. Nor would Christian Schmidt have ever been able to come to Bosnia and Herzegovina outside of Annex 10 of the Dayton Agreement, nor would he, in the capacity of a false high representative, have been able to impose any decisions on the basis of which the legal and legitimate President of Republika Srpska is being prosecuted today,” Cvijanović pointed out.
She emphasized that this clearly demonstrates that Bosnia and Herzegovina is light-years away from being a state based on the rule of law, and this distance is measured by the close connection between its judiciary, political Sarajevo, and foreign influences in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
“Many Bosniak politicians have openly spoken about this—formerly Bakir Izetbegović, and recently Elmedin Konaković, boasting about their role in the politically fabricated case against President Dodik,” Cvijanović recalled.
Today, before the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo, closing arguments will be presented in the case against the President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, and the acting director of Službeni glasnik, Miloš Lukić, for the so-called “non-compliance with the decision” of Christian Schmidt.
