SNSD leader Milorad Dodik said that he had invited the presidents of all parliamentary parties at the BiH level to a meeting on Wednesday, May 14, to show that they are not up for talks because they do not know what they want to negotiate, unlike the SNSD, which knows what it wants.
“It is difficult to resolve something that has been complicated by history through talks,” Dodik stated.
He added that he had offered to meet on Wednesday at the meeting, even though he knew that many would not come, and to show that.
“We are the ones who want to because we know what we want to negotiate, they do not. Republika Srpska is above all in these talks. You want talks, we can, we will tell you what it can do. BiH can do it in accordance with the letter of Dayton and the Constitution of BiH,” Dodik said in a joint interview with media from Republika Srpska in Moscow.
He also noted that Bosniaks have never been negotiators, someone else has always done it for them.
“The problem now is Milorad Dodik, who has a concentrated, articulated position for negotiations,” Dodik said, adding that since they cannot do it with him, they are looking for “those slightly softer Serbs, so they will try to break something.”
Dodik stated that France, Germany, and Great Britain are deliberately complicating relations in BiH in order to give themselves importance because they are no longer significant anywhere.
He stated that Britain is nothing on a global level, and that France is a country with an increasing presence of Bosniaks and will over time be more supportive of Bosniaks in BiH than it will be supportive of objective solutions.
That is why, he believes, it would allow the agreement signed in Paris to collapse, which serious countries do not allow.
Regarding the document “Platform for Peace, Stabilization, European Future and Economic Progress of Bosnia and Herzegovina” signed by ten parties, and proposed by the opposition from Republika Srpska, Dodik said that one must be in conflict if one is for peace.
