President of the National Assembly of Republika Srpska Nenad Stevandić said that in the United States the statements of Serb representatives are now heard much more loudly than those coming from political Sarajevo, whose representatives, he claims, would prefer a return to a time when the Serb voice was silenced.
Commenting on the letter sent by the director of the Srebrenica Memorial Center Emir Suljagić to the president of Judson University, in which he requested the cancellation of an award to SNSD leader Milorad Dodik, Stevandić said that Bosniak representatives had grown accustomed to earlier practices under the Constitutional Court of BiH and high representatives, where, according to him, Serbs “had no voice and nothing they said was heard.”
“Now what Serb representatives say in America is heard much more loudly than what political Sarajevo says, so they would like to return to that period of stereotypes when our voice was banned,” Stevandić stated.
He added that “the truth is painful,” which, in his view, is reflected in the reactions of those who, as he claims, persistently advocate choosing Serb representatives and determining which Serbs are allowed to speak.
“They no longer choose them, but complain when Serbs elected by the Serb people speak more loudly than them and are heard better. We are glad they are complaining, and they will complain even more when they see what we will do,” Stevandić told reporters in Banja Luka.
