Speaking of the elections in Austria in the context of strengthening of the radical right in Europe, Huskić said that it is important that the first appearance of the extreme right in the framework of mainstream policy occurred precisely in Austria, when some 15 years ago the left-right coalition split and then the party of the candidate who now has great chances to become the President of Austria appeared on the political scene.
Huskić considers that such result of Hofer is a consequence of inability of the classical political parties, especially those determined to cope with issues that countries in Europe face with.
“That is not necessarily related to economy, but for immigration and even EU integration,” Huskić says.
Huskić assessed that the voters became fed up with the standard policy which is not changing, which is repeated over and over again, and voters opt for radical moves more often.
Huskić thinks that such political tendencies in Europe are not good for BiH and that such development of situation cannot be considered positive for BiH and for the rest of the region as well.
Huskić commented on the current issue of the publishing of population census results in BiH.
Current authority in the RS has been blackmailing the entire population in BiH that census results will not be published unless the methodology that the Institute for Statistics of the RS advocates for is accepted and that approach leads to nowhere, Huskić believes.
Huskić adds that there is no choice at this moment but to launch the process of publishing the census results.
Moreover, Huskić does not exclude the possible obstructions aimed at destabilization, especially considering the electrified political atmosphere in Republika Srpska.
The census itself, Huskić believes, will become a victim of political bargaining, and many fronts have already been opened. There is simply a situation which leads to local elections and the stakes are high, especially in the RS.
Speaking of the candidate status of BiH for membership in the EU, Huskić believes that if the principles of the Reform Agenda are satisfied in the coming period, then it is possible that BiH obtains the candidate status during 2017. Huskić added that average length of the candidate status is seven years.
Only when we solve all political issues, the issue of our capacities in terms of accession to the Eu will open, said Huskić.
