IGK calls on Canada and the Peace Implementation Council Steering Board: Dismiss Milorad Dodik!

(Patria) - On the occasion of the brutal threat by the president of the Bosnian-Herzegovinian entity of RS, Milorad Dodik, that "police stations in this entity will have the task of expelling Schmidt as soon as they find out he is in RS", and that a "decree on the arrest and deportation of Christian Schmidt" is being prepared, IGK calls on Canada and the Peace Implementation Council Steering Board: Dismiss Milorad Dodik.

Milorad Dodik's brutal threats directed at the High Representative of the international community in Bosnia and Herzegovina are reminiscent of the threats made by the convicted war criminal Ratko Mladić and his political, military, and police establishment to representatives of the international community.

This is a continuation of an extremely dangerous anti-state policy that seriously threatens peace and security not only in Bosnia and Herzegovina but also in Europe. Milorad Dodik clearly shows that he is on the path of the political, military, and police establishment of the RS entity from the war year of 1992, an establishment convicted for genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina. IGK does not exclude the possibility that certain centers of power in the international community, in collaboration with internal anti-Bosnian factors, are increasingly counting on the division of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

These moves must be responded to, action must be taken, and silence is not an option. Therefore, we demand the engagement of Canada and the Steering Board of the Peace Implementation Council for the political removal and criminal prosecution of Milorad Dodik, who must be urgently stopped and politically and criminally sanctioned in the name of peace and security in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Europe, and the world.

If you do not stop the main generator of the destruction of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the main generator of instability in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and thus in Europe and the world, we will face serious consequences. It is inconceivable to calmly observe Dodik's continuous anti-state behavior, which is extremely scandalous, and which dangerously undermines the sovereignty, independence, political subjectivity, and territorial integrity of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Respond to the serious threats to peace and stability, ban Dodik from any political activity! Declare Milorad Dodik undesirable in your countries.

You must act urgently in the name of peace and stability, in the name of preserving the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Milorad Dodik's apartheid must and will be stopped", stated the Institute for Research of Genocide Canada (IGK).
