Plenković, you are persona non grata to the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina, don't come!

By: Rasim Belko @rasimbelko

Dragan Čović and the Croatian Democratic Union would not be an equal rival to Milorad Dodik in dismantling Bosnia and Herzegovina if a awakening of Tuđman's dream of Banovina Croatia had not occurred in Zagreb. And this awakening did not happen in the ten years from Ivica Račan to Zoran Milanović as Prime Minister of Croatia.

The dream of Banovina Croatia was awakened by the arrival at the helm of HDZ of the Brussels-educated Andrej Plenković, of Ustasha origin, who was taught to successfully manipulate and interfere in the internal affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Since Plenković's arrival, the HDZ of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as a sister party of HDZ RH, has completely directed its discourse towards the destruction of Bosnia and Herzegovina, because Plenković realized that navigating in the “turbid waters” of Bosnia and Herzegovina could bring him multiple benefits.

On the one hand, he draws considerable political strength from the electorate of the Croatian diaspora in BiH. And this often brings him important votes. On the other hand, by riding on the back of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Plenković has imposed himself on the administration in Washington as a kind of mediator for the interests of our country. Of course, Plenković is not interested in the interests of BiH, but he successfully sold that story to the State Department, from which Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently sent a letter to the head of Croatian diplomacy stating that it is necessary to resolve the southern gas interconnection. The blame fell on Čović, and the real culprit is none other than Plenković, who blocked that connection through Čović. And ultimately, Plenković counts on the fact that when his time in Croatia expires, he can return to Brussels with the story of “solving Bosnia”, not as a bureaucratic official, but as a key figure in one of the three or four crucial positions.

And mind you, such an Andrej Plenković will come to Sarajevo next week, where he is supposed to help us on our European path. If Jadranka Kosor were at the head of Croatia, she would not come to Sarajevo before showing Brussels that Bosnia should be in the EU, and she would not be pushing the separatist Čović. But Plenković is a sophisticated version of Tuđman with Brussels manners, and only naive political idiots leading Bosnia and Herzegovina believe that he is coming as a European to lead us to Brussels.

Citizens for whom Bosnia and Herzegovina is their homeland, patriots and intellectuals are clear and unanimous in their message: PLENKOVIĆ, DON'T COME!

You, Plenković, are in no way invited to interfere in the internal affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and you have interfered far too many times, sowing tensions under the franchise of “helping the Croatian people in BiH”.

To be clear, and I am sure many agree with me, YOU PLENKOVIĆ ARE UNDESIRABLE!

Because Sarajevo and Bosnia and Herzegovina are open and good hosts to every guest with good intentions. You are not one of them; you are coming to Sarajevo to talk about the Election Law, which you are trying to impose on us through the High Representative Christian Schmidt. In your version of the election legislation, the majority of the citizens of this country would be oppressed, because you want the vote of one HDZ voter to be treated as 3, 4, 5 votes of citizens from Sarajevo, Tuzla, Bihać…

And therefore, you are not welcome, you are an undesirable guest because the gang in Sarajevo, no matter how much power stands behind it, has never been welcome and has never fared well. And so that you are not offended by the fact that you are not welcome, the same applies to Ursula von der Leyen, as well as Mark Rutte, the Prime Minister of the Netherlands.

Von der Leyen has already lied to the citizens of this country and will lie to them again next week. And the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina are tired of lies and European fairy tales because for decades we have been hearing that we are here, on the doorstep of Europe, but just a little longer. While Ukraine and Moldova are becoming members expressively. Rutte's country, on the other hand, has clearly stated that it is against our entry into the EU, so it doesn't matter to us whether he or Viktor Orbán comes; in any case, he is not welcome.

Gentlemen Europeans, you have nothing to come for; we do not believe your lies and deceptions about the European path, and we don't even believe Plenković when he says it's morning, because when we see him, it gets dark for us.

And it gets dark for us because we remember the camps, the Joint Criminal Enterprise (UZP), the destruction of the Old Bridge in Mostar, all of which were a stab in the back while Zagreb told us we were friends and partners. It gets even darker when, based on events of the last decade or more, we realize that Plenković, from the very beginning of his actions, has actually done everything to politically revive the UZP creation of “Herceg-Bosna”.

And therefore, so that we don't waste eggs on building facades in Sarajevo, so that tensions don't rise, Plenković, bypass us, not just Sarajevo, but Bosnia and Herzegovina. You are persona non grata to the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and whatever your condescending representatives of authority say, it will not pass.

Remember that, don't waste your time!
