Željka Cvijanović, a member of the BiH Presidency, said that “sometimes those sanctions, which the Americans stamp, look more like a trick to appease the Bosniaks than to really punish those they are intended for”.
“And especially since they do not contribute to solving any problem, but are only an indication that there is no real strategy, nor the will to bring the country into constitutional order and political stability,” Cvijanović said in a statement to Srna news agency when asked to comment on the sanctions imposed by the USA to her, the Prime Minister of Republika Srpska Radovan Višković, the President of the National Assembly Nenad Stevandić and the Minister of Justice Miloš Bukejlović.
“Stupidity is this nebula that you have to accept that it is normal that some unelected foreigner makes laws for you instead of local institutions, or that you are constantly threatened with prosecution because of your political stance, or that it must become normal when foreigners make unconstitutional decisions in the Constitutional Court for you to be sanctioned by someone from the outside because you don’t like them.
“It has nothing to do with the Dayton Agreement, nor does it mean anything from the aspect of who respects it and who doesn’t,” Cvijanović assessed, and added that she found the part of the explanation that the sanctions are aimed exclusively at individuals and not at institutions or positions to be particularly interesting. in the authorities they exercise.
“I don’t know at all how they separated it, but I know for sure that my attitude towards these sanctions will be very institutional in any case,” said Cvijanović.
