First snag for HDZ BiH and SNSD: Dodik questions support for Borjana Krišto

(Patria) - BiH has an epilogue that it will part ways peacefully. This will happen peacefully and it will certainly happen. RS does not plan any violent secession. RS will not accept being an accomplice to that, said the President of RS and SNSD, Milorad Dodik, at today's press conference. He said that RS is celebrating "international recognition" today.

He particularly criticized the Chairperson of the Council of Ministers of BiH, Borjana Krišto, for "eliminating Serbs" from the meeting with Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

"This avoidance of including Serb representatives will no longer be tolerated. At the meeting with Stoltenberg, there was a Muslim - the Minister of Defense, a Muslim - the Minister of Foreign Affairs, a Croat deputy, Krišto... This will not be tolerated. We will see what support Mrs. Krišto will now have from the Serb side, after she eliminated Serbs from meetings four times. This was an unnecessary mistake by the lady," said Dodik.

He said that besides the Minister of Defense, deputies from the Serb and Croat nations should have also been at the meeting.

He rejected the initiative to dismiss Staša Košarac, his minister in the Council of Ministers, due to domestic violence.

"He does not have a criminal complaint and he is our minister, whom we stand behind. If it is established that he has crossed the 'red line', we will act ourselves, we don't need anyone. The opposition has the right to initiate initiatives, but we decide and we will not accept it. He will not be dismissed," he stated.
