The moves of Milorad Dodik, the president of the Republika Srpska entity, undermine the stability of Bosnia and Herzegovina, given that these are anti-constitutional and anti-Dayton actions.
Today, Dodik signed the decree on the promulgation of the Law on Amendments to the Law on the Publication of Laws and Other Regulations of the RS, after the decision was previously adopted by the National Assembly of the RS.
Many international officials have condemned this action of the authorities of the RS entity.
