BELGRADE, JANUARY 25 /SRNA/ – BiH is a broken state, divided in every respect, and there is not a single historical reason for it to exist, SNSD leader Milorad Dodik said.

Dodik stated that BiH has never truly been a state, and that even if it were, there are currently no real conditions for it to function as one.

He pointed out that BiH exists only as an imposed obligation, maintained by a force called the European Union and some of those who follow it.

"BiH remains a deception based on liberal concepts of how a society should be organized, into which irreconcilable peoples from the former Yugoslavia were forcibly `crammed`," Dodik said.

He explained that those same actors believed Yugoslavia needed to be dismantled, while BiH should be preserved on the same principles—forcing peoples who could not live together in Yugoslavia to accept a shared life in BiH. "That is where everything stems from," Dodik told "Politika."
