Strong pro-Bosnian front for a strong Bosnia and Herzegovina

The central pre-election rally of the Homeland Coalition for the municipality of Doboj was held on October 2 in the settlement of Glavice. In a magnificent open-air atmosphere, the candidates of this coalition for the National Assembly of the RS, the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of BiH, and Mr. Ramiz Salkić, candidate for President/Vice-President of the RS entity, presented themselves to those present. Inspiring addresses, in which members and sympathizers of the seven member parties of the Homeland Coalition called for multi-ethnic unity and the strengthening of pro-Bosnian policy, were interrupted by thunderous applause and ovations. A great victory over the parties that are against the Homeland was announced:

-We cannot and will not give our vote to those who are against the Homeland. We called on all Bosniaks and Croats to be part of a unified coalition, which should fight for a strong and stable Bosnia and Herzegovina, to finally return lost human rights to returnees, but they refused. Their personal interests and the interests of the parties they belong to were more important to them than the interests of the people and the state. If I receive your trust and am elected Vice-President of the RS entity, I will certainly not go to the patron saint day of the Republika Srpska entity, as the current Vice-President from the Bosniak ranks did. I will not accept and support such personal humiliation and humiliation of the entire people. On the contrary, I will fight to eliminate this type of discrimination as soon as possible, said Mr. Ramiz Salkić.

He called on the citizens of Doboj and the entire region to send a message through their unity and strength that crimes and genocide have not destroyed the Bosniaks of this region:

-As your representatives in Banja Luka and Sarajevo, we from the Homeland Coalition know and want to support your return. In recent years, we have worked a lot on infrastructure reconstruction and starting small businesses. Now we will direct all our efforts in two directions – towards the economic strengthening of returnee families through employment and starting family businesses, and towards eliminating the discrimination that currently prevails in the smaller BiH entity. We also want, as a constituent people, to have the right to fair and honest employment, to receive support for development from the RS budget. We also pay taxes and fill this budget. We have a right to it. We only ask for equality without discrimination, concluded Mr. Salkić.

Adil Osmanović, candidate of the Homeland Coalition for the National Assembly of the RS, emphasized that the pro-Bosnian patriotic bloc of seven political parties has gathered political forces that want a strong and integral Bosnia and Herzegovina:

-The Homeland Coalition is based on a multi-ethnic principle because we see Bosnia and Herzegovina as a multi-ethnic community of equal and free people. If we use this historic opportunity and win a sufficient number of seats in the National Assembly of the RS, if we succeed in obtaining the position of Vice-President of the RS and have our people in the state parliament, we will once again be a relevant political factor in Banja Luka and Sarajevo. With that strength, we can fight for a free and strong Bosnia and Herzegovina, in which there will be no discrimination, said Osmanović.

Citizens were called to go to the polls on October 12 and support the Homeland Coalition, which in the RS entity consists of seven political parties: SDA, Party for BiH, Democratic Front, Alliance for a Better Future-Fahrudin Radončić, Posavina Party, Croatian Party of Rights, and Party of the Diaspora of BiH.
