Council of Peoples to discuss closure of the Office of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Council of Peoples of Republika Srpska is expected to consider today the decision on the adoption of the Declaration on the Closure of the Office of the High Representative (OHR) in Bosnia and Herzegovina, following the decision to initiate a procedure for the protection of the vital national interest of the Bosniak people.

The National Assembly of Republika Srpska adopted the declaration on 26 May, calling for the termination of the mandate of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the closure of the OHR.

The adopted document states that the National Assembly requests the United Nations Security Council to urgently adopt a resolution ending the mandate of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina and closing the Office of the High Representative.

The matter is now before the Council of Peoples, which will review the declaration in the context of the Bosniak caucus’s invocation of the vital national interest mechanism.
