High Representative Christian Schmidt said at the Bled Forum today that “citizens must not suffer” due to the blockade of state institutions.
It has been exactly one month since Christian Schmidt took over as High Representative. Already at the beginning of the mandate, the institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which the High Representative should protect, are in a serious crisis after the decision of the Serbian parties to block the work of state institutions.
“I am very optimistic that we will all sit down together to talk and find a way to solve these problems, but also other things, such as economic issues and European integration,” Schmidt said.
He added that the institutions are there to work in response to the invitation of the member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sefik Dzaferovic, to remove Dodik.
“Mr. Dodik will either have to change his policy and become constructive or he will have to leave the political scene. He must know that by endangering the state, he is also endangering the Dayton Agreement, and that what was created by Dayton is endangered, and that is the entities.” , said Dzaferovic after yesterday’s session of the Presidency of BiH, Klix.ba writes.
