Partition

Aleksandar Vui addressed the media from Brussels.

Bosnia and Herzegovina is facing its most serious crisis since the end of the armed conflict in 1995. Bosnian Croat parties are threatening to boycott the country's institutions due to the Bosniak parties' refusal to implement a 2016 Constitutional Court ruling.

"The Western Balkans is a central part of the vision of a whole, free and prosperous Europe. That is the vital interest of the United States and at the core of its foreign policy", Gabriel Escobar said at the subcommittee session of the American Senate for Foreign Affairs for Europe and regional security cooperation.

According to Novosti, the law could be submitted in the BiH Parliament in early February.

Milorad Dodik also said that the best solution is to separate Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats in a civilized way.

According to the federal media, the Serbian member of the Presidency of Bosnia-Herzegovina, after greeting, before today's meeting, just passed and sat down in his place.

"We won't solve this problem without the Serbs in Bosnia and Herzegovina," Milanovic said.

The Republika Srpska parliament, a Bosnian Serb-dominated part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, is preparing to discuss a declaration that has exacerbated tensions in the country and heightened fears of disintegration and has brought back memories of ethnic violence a quarter of a century ago.

As he said, there are mechanisms to prevent such elections.
"We do not know how the opposition in Srpska will act, but we know that if a foreign factor interferes in the work of the CEC, we will not participate in the election process," Dodik said in an interview with RTRS.

He pointed out that there are many sources of misunderstanding in Bosnia-Herzegovina and that relations must be considered in more detail.
"When it comes to Mr Dodik, his unusual expression, someone may like it or not, but he is supported by the largest number of representatives of the Serb people in Bosnia-Herzegovina," Covic told HRT, as reported by Srna.
