SDA party president Bakir Izetbegović reacted to the statement of SNSD leader Milorad Dodik that the goal of the parties from the RS was to oust the SDA from power.
Izetbegovic states that the strong SDA stopped Dodik and prevented him from achieving what he envisioned.
“Among other things, we forced him to accept the Reform Program and the continuation of the NATO path, stopped him from trying to take control of important state institutions, and because of that, it was Dodik’s goal that the SDA does not participate in government at the state level,” Izetbegović said.
On June 18th, SNSD President Milorad Dodik said that when forming the government at the BiH level, their goal was that the SDA would not participate in it and that they succeeded in that.
“I believe that there is no party in the Republika Srpska that would accept the SDA, which has a policy of separating the Republika Srpska from Serbia as much as possible,” wrote Dodik on Instagram in reference to his activities in the past week.
He added that during the last week in several interviews, he repeated that he has a little more tolerance towards the new partners from the Federation, but that he does not accept their policies.
According to him, “the work of the BiH Council of Ministers has essentially remained the same, without a coordinated foreign policy and with attempts to impose many things on the Republika Srpska, and only one of them is the story of property”.
“We told the parties with whom we formed the Council of Ministers that as far as European policies are concerned, we can discuss all 14 priorities in the package, and not let someone else choose what suits them. When we say put the Constitutional Court or OHR on the agenda, then they say we will do that later. When later? In 20 years. Such an approach is unacceptable for the RS,” emphasized Dodik, Klix.ba reports.
