This day is considered as one of the most important days in the country’s modern history. On this date in 1992, 64% of BiH citizens answered “yes” on the referendum question “Do you want Bosnia to be an independent state of all its citizens and equal nations?’
Unfortunately, even after twenty years, Independence Day is celebrated only in the Federation of BiH, while in Republika Srpska, March 1st is just a regular day.
To all readers of Sarajevo Times who perceive Bosnia and Herzegovina as their homeland,
we wish a happy March 1st, the Independence Day of BiH.
