The downfall of imposed and incompetent: Chaos in Sarajevo, debts in the Federation, blockade at the BiH level

(Patria) - Bosnia and Herzegovina, led by the 'Trojka' coalition, is in complete chaos today, assesses Federal MP Jasmina Bišćević Tokić (SDA).

- Those in power criticize the opposition instead of solving accumulated problems. Such unfounded statements often come from the spearhead of Our Party, which clearly aspires to a leadership position - Bišćević Tokić stated in an interview with the Patria News Agency (NAP).

She was referring to state MP Sabina Ćudić, who in her latest media appearance praised the results of the 'Trojka', as if it were enough to just say - "look at Sarajevo Canton".

- It seems to me that she travels a lot and spends little time in Sarajevo itself. Sarajevo Canton, the heart of the country, has been brought to financial collapse. The debt has tripled, the budget deficit reaches hundreds of millions, and citizens are left without basic services.

While we lack money for medicines, kindergartens, and social programs, the 'Trojka' government is hiring armies of advisors and distributing millions in contracts to the favored. Bankruptcy awaits us, which will burden future generations - warns Bišćević Tokić.

She also points out that Ćudić forgot to mention that the 'Trojka' manages all levels of government, from Sarajevo Canton, through the Federation, to the state level, and that it shows the same incompetence everywhere.

- Instead of responsible policy, we are witnessing subservience to the HDZ, financial collapse, and a complete blockade of the European path.

The Federation of BiH, under Prime Minister Nermin Nikšić, is borrowing on the London Stock Exchange, with the most expensive loans that the people will repay, not those who took them out.

Instead of reforms, they resorted to the most expensive borrowing in the history of the Federation, without any plan. At the same time, the FBiH Parliament, chaired by 'Trojka' cadres, is buying luxury cars, while electricity prices are increasing for citizens - states Bišćević Tokić.

At the state level, our interlocutor adds, the situation is even worse.

- The budget has not been adopted, institutions are functioning in a temporary regime, and tens of thousands of employees are deprived of their rights. The ruling coalition is in disarray, and the BiH Parliament is witnessing farces and blockades.

Billions are being invested in Herzegovina, while other cantons are neglected. Sarajevo and Tuzla are still connected by narrow and unsafe roads, while highways, bypasses, and expressways are being built in Herzegovina, often duplicated and unnecessary.

The largest investment of almost a billion marks is directed towards HDZ regions, while only alms remain for Bosnia and Krajina in the form of the renovation of a part of the railway in Jablanica, done thanks to foreign donations - notes Bišćević Tokić.

According to her, the industry that survived even the war years is collapsing today.

- Igman Konjic, the pride of the defense industry, has suspended production and sent workers home because the government has not provided alternative suppliers. The same scenario threatens Pretis. Companies that should be the backbone of the economy are now symbols of incompetence and negligence.

The 'Trojka' government has also shown incredible incompetence in crisis situations. The Federation of BiH does not have a single helicopter or firefighting plane. While forests burn, citizens are saved by improvisation and the mercy of neighbors.

Nikšić openly claims that renting is better than buying, as if protecting lives and nature is a luxury. This is a shameful proof of how little citizens matter in the eyes of this government.

Chaos in Sarajevo, debts in the Federation, blockade at the state level. Infrastructure for the HDZ, factory closures, and incompetence in crises, that is the balance sheet of the 'Trojka' and Prime Minister Nikšić.

This imposed and subservient government, which betrays and humiliates its people, has no right to legitimacy. It is time for them to leave the political scene because Bosnia and Herzegovina deserves responsible, not incompetent and obedient politicians.

I tell the MP of Our Party - criticize the opposition less, especially the SDA, and do more of the job you are paid for - concluded Bišćević Tokić in an interview with NAP.
