Where are they, what are Schmidt, Murphy and their "Trojka" doing: The lie about separating Čović from Dodik has collapsed

By: Avdo Avdić/Istraga.ba

They lied. The "Trojka" media, their columnists, the Marfists, the Schmidtoists, and all the Titoists lied to us when they said that by suspending the Bosniak vote and adapting the Constitution to the needs of the HDZ, they would separate Čović from Dodik.

Konaković, Nikšić, and Ćudić-Ukaj, and their entire parties lied to us when they said they would not enter into government with Dodik, just as they are now lying to us that they have removed Dodik and SNSD from power.

When you, like Elmedin Konaković, are not bound by facts and your own stance, then Milorad Dodik is your partner in the morning, and you attack him with a bulldozer in the afternoon. When you are driven by posing and positioning, then you, like Sabina Ćudić, will vote to form a coalition with Dodik, even though you previously promised to send him to the dustbin of history.

This is how the truth looks from the perspective of the "Trojka". 26 deputies voted for the dismissal of Nebojša Radmanović. The "Trojka" with its partners has nineteen votes. If SDA and DF had been with SNSD and HDZ, Nebojša Radmanović would not have been dismissed. But he was dismissed. With the votes of SDA and DF deputies. The credit for this dismissal was taken, pay attention now, by Sabina Ćudić. In her mind, according to her logic, her one vote is more important than the eight votes from SDA and one from DF (Milan Dunović was present at the session, representing three deputies).

If you listen to the leaders of the "Trojka", you will hear the claim that SDA and DF are saving Dodik. At the same time, for them, the HDZ is on the European path, despite the fact that their deputies voted against the dismissal of Radmanović and Nešić.

On Istinomjer, which selectively counts lies, you will not find a single article about Konaković's and Magazinović's claims that Dodik has been removed from power. Because when you are not bound by facts, it is implied that you are speaking a lie. And when you are financed by those who invented that lie, then you have no need to count those lies.

When they entered into government with SNSD, the "Trojka" members, along with their associated analysts, claimed in unison that SDA and DF had done the same. And since Istinomjer is already confused, let's look at the real situation.

From 2010 to the present, general elections have been held four times. After the first ones in 2010, the government at the BiH level was formed by SDP and SNSD. After the 2014 elections, the government at the BiH level was formed by SDA, DF, and the opposition from Republika Srpska. After the 2018 elections, SNSD was allowed into power because it agreed to the submission of the first ANP. And after the last general elections held in 2022, the government was formed by the "Trojka" and SNSD. Therefore, SNSD has been in power in three out of the last four election cycles. In two out of three cycles, it was in power with SDP, and once with SDA and DF. When it was in opposition, SNSD was removed by the votes of SDA and DF.

Therefore, both analysts and politicians lied when they claimed that SNSD was unavoidable after the 2022 elections. Because the Council of Ministers could have been formed without SNSD. And if the Council of Ministers had been formed without SNSD, Milorad Dodik would not have two state ministers today, he would not have the director of the Indirect Taxation Authority, the Institute of Metrology, the director of SIPA, the deputy director of OSA, the director of the Service for Foreigners' Affairs... He would only have the mechanism of blockade in the House of Peoples, which he still has.

Milorad Dodik and Dragan Čović are eternal partners. And only Michael Murphy and Christian Schmidt still believed in breaking this coalition, by suspending the Constitution of the Federation of BiH, giving an opportunity to the "Bosniak invalid structure to come to power". But, as we said, facts do not bind either Konaković or his mentors.

DF President Željko Komšić said that his party will not enter into government with Dodik. SDA President Bakir Izetbegović repeated the same. Yet, Konaković and his orchestra repeat the lie a hundred times – SDA is entering the government.

No. SDA and DF are not entering the government. They are only helping Konaković not to be part of the government. Because he should never have been anything in the first place. And the sole culprit for his existence is the first lady of SDA – Sebija Izetbegović.
