I am ready to use the Bonn powers and I would do so in cooperation with the international community. However, conclusions by the National Assembly of RS (NSRS) on holding the referendum on the work of B&H judicial institutions are not effective yet, and we have not seen yet the decision of the Constitutional COurt of B&H on declaring the January 9 as an unconstitutional Day of RS; stated the High Representative in B&H Valentin Inzko.
Inzko said he has a feeling that the referendum on the work of the Court and Prosecutor’s Office of B&H will not be held in the Republika Srpska.
“I see the signals coming from Banja Luka. Conclusions by the NSRS are not effective yet, nor they are published in the ‘Official Gazette’. The second signal is that the Bosniak caucus, which appealed to the Constitutional ourt of RS that it has not been included in the commission for the implementation of the referendum, was given a right and that case will not be considered within this judicial institution. It is certain that there will be no referendum this year, maybe next year neither. Only then we could consider the ways of acting,” Inzko highlighted.
When it comes to the decision by the Constitutional Court B&H on January 9, reaction cannot be expected right now in that case as well, given that the mentioned decision has not been presented to the public yet.
“We cannot react now, but later, in the referendum is held or if this decision is badly implemented. Now it is too early,” Inzko said.
Inzko also commented on the achieved progress of B&H on the path towards the EU, stating that the progressis evident, but that it is necessary to fulfill all prerequisites in order for B&H to submit a membership application.
