Konaković in Zagreb 'diplomatically' omitted Croatian UZP, and in Mostar called Dodik's undermining of BiH Constitution 'irrelevant'

Even on Wikipedia, which Minister Elmedin Konaković uses for education, the word trivial means - irrelevant.

But it is clear that the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina has recently shifted his focus from Wikipedia to Booking, trying to determine who defrauded Serbian tourists in Sarajevo, and thus did not have time to learn a new word for his vocabulary consisting mainly of the words - "regime, Bakir, Sebija, SDA, DF, regime media, mercenaries, to steal, nepotism and momentum…".

With his own ignorance, Elmedin Konaković could often justify his senseless moves and statements. Often, but not in the case of "January 9th". Even if he doesn't know the meaning of the word trivial, and it's possible he doesn't, the leader of NiP and MFA knows what it means: "I wouldn't talk about that. We are dealing with serious issues".

Therefore, undermining the constitutional and legal order of BiH is a non-serious issue. It is non-serious when his coalition partner, who has changed from bad to worse, lines up police forces in the center of Banja Luka and shouts - "GOD HELP YOU, HEROES".

It is also a non-serious matter for Elmedin Konaković that Ratko Mladić's cap was on the Mehmed-paša Sokolović bridge in Višegrad, where the killing of Bosniaks began thirty-two years ago. It is also non-serious that decisions of the Constitutional Court of BiH are being violated. All of this, therefore, is trivial. IRRELEVANT. NON-SERIOUS!

Elmedin Konaković could have justified all previous omissions with his own ignorance, but for the words spoken in front of the HDZ BiH building, not even lack of education can be an excuse.

- I wouldn't talk about that. It's an irrelevant, trivial matter for me. We have work to do, we are dealing with serious issues, and that's why we are here - Minister Konaković will say, after a journalist asked him if he would comment on "January 9th".

What are more important issues for a statesman than undermining the constitutional and legal order of the country he "leads"? New Year's tourist scam? Disobedient media? Or visa-free regime with the Emirates with favorable - free tickets to Dubai?

What can be more important for a statesman from Bosnia and Herzegovina than the country? Perhaps a basketball game between Crvena Zvezda and Partizan, in which Konaković, objectively speaking, cheers for Belgrade and Serbia.

Elmedin Konaković did not make a gaffe in Mostar on Tuesday. He only confirmed suspicions that he cannot lead the country and make decisions on behalf of the country and the people who gave his party 67 thousand votes.

And when I say "cannot lead", I don't mean he cannot lead because he is incompetent and uneducated, but because Konaković is ready to commit treason, convinced he is doing the right thing.

Despite the ICTY rulings that the political and military leadership of the Republic of Croatia had overall control over the HVO forces and that the conflict was of an international nature, the MFA Konaković has doubts whether the Republic of Croatia committed aggression and whether Tuđman "was the one"?! pic.twitter.com/Aq0sH2Dzrn

In Zagreb, let's recall, on HRT, he said that he would "diplomatically omit" the answer to the question about Croatian aggression against BiH. In Mostar, a year later, he will "diplomatically" omit the celebration of the unconstitutional day of the Republika Srpska. Moreover, he described Dodik's act, which even global media have dedicated significant coverage to, as "irrelevant and trivial".

Well, American planes trivially flew over Tuzla and Brčko. The American Embassy trivially called the BiH Prosecutor's Office to prosecute those responsible for trivialities in RS. The OHR trivially lied that this January 9th would not happen.

The "trojka" politicians trivially laid flowers in Potočari. The ruling of the Constitutional Court of BiH regarding January 9th is also trivial. And Konaković is not dealing with trivialities. He is dealing with serious business. And we will soon find out what kind.
