The fact that the so-called diplomat Michael Murphy continues his obsessive attacks on Republika Srpska and on me personally even after leaving Bosnia and Herzegovina is further proof that his mandate was not diplomatic, but ideological and hostile toward everything Serb, said SNSD leader Milorad Dodik.
“Murphy was not an ambassador, but a political commissar and a Muslim leader with a single task—to break Republika Srpska, overturn the electoral will and political choice of the Serb people, that is, my removal from the political scene.
For all of this, he had his executors, who operated within an anti-Serb chain—Christian Schmidt, judicial bodies, Muslim politicians, and the opposition from Republika Srpska, all of whom willingly accepted to tie the horse where Aga Murphy told them to,” Dodik told Srna, commenting on Murphy’s posts on the social network X, in which he again dealt with Republika Srpska and the SNSD leader.
The SNSD leader said that Murphy’s statements today carry no diplomatic weight, but rather reflect the bitter frustration of defeat, because he achieved none of what he had planned—he left without results, without an “extinguished” Republika Srpska, without the annulment of the will of the Serb people, and without broken institutions of Republika Srpska, which he had tried for months to discipline through threats, blackmail, and pressure.
That is why Murphy is now, from political retirement, trying to remain relevant by attacking what he never managed to subdue or destroy, Dodik said.
“Murphy openly worked against the Dayton Agreement, supported impositions by unelected foreigners falsely presenting themselves as the High Representative, remained silent about violations of the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and applauded every move by political Sarajevo aimed against Republika Srpska,” Dodik stressed.
He pointed out that Murphy’s problem was the very existence of Republika Srpska as a political subject that does not accept a colonial relationship, as well as the responsible policy of Milorad Dodik, which represented the majority expression of the will of the Serb people in Republika Srpska and was entirely focused on preserving the original Dayton Agreement—its letter, not its so-called spirit—the status and interests of Republika Srpska and the Serb people.
“Republika Srpska does not take lessons from former ambassadors who leave behind a divided country and permanently damaged trust. Republika Srpska remains, the policy I advocated remains, I remain. They did not break me, and Murphy’s statements end where they belong—in the archive of failed pressures and misguided policies,” said the SNSD leader.
He emphasized that Murphy has left, but frustrations remain, now in his retirement days.
“He failed to break Republika Srpska, so now from afar he attacks what defeated him, because the man who played the cowboy is hurt most by defeat—by a strong Republika Srpska that has, despite all trials, survived and continues the policies its people have chosen for more than 20 years, a choice that continues today as well, confirmed at the most recent imposed elections. Support for SNSD policies in October 2026 will be even stronger, to the regret of the retired diplomat and his henchmen in the form of Schmidt and the ‘troikas’ from Sarajevo and Banja Luka,” concluded SNSD leader Milorad Dodik.
