If a special session of the National Assembly of Republika Srpska is scheduled, the SDS will not follow the SNSD in their initiatives and will build its special position on every issue that is of great importance for the Republika Srpska, SDS President Mirko Sarovic said today in East Sarajevo.
After the session of the Main Board, he said that the SDS believes that the policy of the SNSD and Milorad Dodik is the greatest danger to peace and stability and a danger to the Republika Srpska and its Dayton position.
Sarovic pointed out that the SDS stands for the original Dayton Agreement in its program and that all competencies, which were in any way transferred to the level of BiH, should be returned under the auspices of Srpska in an appropriate procedure.
“But on the other hand, we think that this should happen in the way in which those competencies were transferred, and we know that most of those competencies were transferred by voting in the RS National Assembly and the BiH Parliament, primarily by SNSD and the ruling party,” he reminded.
“We are for the original Dayton and all initiatives should be implemented in a peaceful way,” said Sarovic.
Commenting on the announcements of some prosecutors to form a case in the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH against the Serbian member of the Presidency of BiH Milorad Dodik, Sarovic said that the initiatives to return competencies are completely legitimate and that it is legitimate for someone from Republika Srpska to initiate the return.
“I don’t see why anyone could be held criminally responsible for that,” Sarovic added, emphasizing that the coalition partners should agree on the return of competencies and that the SDS will vote for their return because that position is constitutional and legal.
Sarovic also said that the position of the SDS is that the opposition has a common candidate in the early elections for the mayor of Prijedor, and that he will initiate a meeting with the leaders of the opposition parties in the coming days in order to start activities for those elections.
