NATO in the political violence against Bosnia and Herzegovina

By Sead Omeragić

This is what is happening in BiH today, with the abandonment of state power, it has never stopped, except that it has taken different forms. Zagreb and Belgrade, through their puppet theaters in HDZ and RS, do not stop destroying Bosnia and Herzegovina. At one time, evil took the form of international armed aggression, at another, it was attacks on returnees in RS and international officials. They regularly used blackmail, demanding all possible privileges for their nations compared to the political conglomerate in Sarajevo.

I remember one of Momčilo Krajišnik's tricks. Immediately after Dayton, he refused to come to the Presidency building for work, but he proposed meetings in the old building of the BiH Museum. It was an attempt by the later convicted war criminal to mock his own country as much as possible. Bosnia and Herzegovina and its Presidency in a building among museum exhibits, as a trick with a cynical message. Krajišnik ended up as an exhibit behind bars in Scheveningen.

What is currently happening in Montenegro is "already seen" in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The attempted state coup in Podgorica, then these religious protests, threats of war in the Parliament of Montenegro, all of this is part of the folklore of "Greater Serbia" in the name of Russia's interests in the Balkans.

Yesterday's burning of the NATO flag in Podgorica is enough to show that it is a fight against the Western military alliance by those who represent Russia's interests in Montenegro. Macedonians and their statesman Zoran Zaev, who, along with several MPs, was brutally beaten in the middle of parliament, also have bitter experience with Russian goals in the Balkans. Europe was then shocked by the photos of Zoran Zaev's bloody face.

Why is the official policy of Belgrade to have NATO exercises continuously held in the middle of Serbia, to develop good relations with this alliance, while Serbs from Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina are pushed into conflict with NATO? What is Vučić's calculation there?

There has been no equal to the President of Croatia in terrorist slander against BiH and Bosniaks. It is still a short time until her departure from Pantovčak on February 18 and the inauguration of Zoran Milanović. And when she leaves the scene, we hope peacefully, her terrorist slanders against BiH will last for a long time in the public of many European countries. This is probably why the attacks on HDZ are being rapidly prepared, because Andrej Plenković does not pursue the policy of the so-called "Greater Croatia". Promoters of this great-state idea, such as Milijan Brkić and Miro Kovač, former chief of staff to Franjo Tuđman, are being raised against him.

A recent fierce blow to BiH came from the agreements between Vučić and Grabar Kitarović by introducing migrants into Bosnia and Herzegovina and accumulating them in this country, with the bullying behavior of the Croatian police across and at the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina.

These days I am watching the arguments in the European Parliament between liberal and "green" European MPs and Croatian parliamentarians. European parliamentarians offer photos, videos, evidence of all kinds, even their own testimonies about the brutal behavior of the Croatian police towards migrants coming from BiH.

Croatian parliamentarians quarrelsomely refuse to admit even a gram of truth. They qualify all this evidence as lies. And they will repeat this and refuse until the European parliamentarians get tired and give up their evidence and testimonies. After that, some miserable resolution will be passed in which Croatia will be weakly condemned and everything will continue as before.

All this scattering of lies in the European Parliament is reminiscent of the verdict of the international court against the so-called "Six", which also included Croatia's aggression against the state of BiH. This verdict has never reached and will never reach the eyes and ears of European parliamentarians.

At the same time, Bosnia and Herzegovina will remain the only country in Europe whose state parliament has not accepted and condemned the fact of the genocide in Srebrenica. The genocide on its territory and against its citizens has never been recognized by the politics convicted of this genocide. For a quarter of a century, we have been watching tricks, boycotts, blackmail, and another repertoire of actors who rule Bosnia and Herzegovina with the worst political violence. Here, it is regularly possible to act against one's own state because Čović and Dodik have endless possibilities for blackmail and deception.

In BiH, any decision that is not to the liking of SNSD or HDZ leads to rebellion and attacks on the state. After the Constitutional Court's decision on land in state ownership, Dodik ordered his cadres to leave state institutions. And this is "already seen".

Unfortunately, today it is far more dangerous because Dodik is supported by Čović, who has just arrived conveniently briefed from a visit to Russia. Behind Čović and Dodik is Vučić's policy and Zagreb's duplicitous policy, and above all of them are the interests of the Russian Federation in the Balkans. The very meetings that Čović schedules with parties are actually his desire to convey Russian wishes and guidelines.

Will we in Sarajevo defend NATO's interests, while, for example, Croatia, a member of the Western military alliance, will work against these interests in BiH? Has the leader of HDZ, Čović, who speaks and acts against NATO and for Russian interests, fallen from the pear or from the brotherly HDZ of Croatia? We have been watching this in BiH for years, and NATO could finally remember these facts.
