EAST SARAJEVO, AUGUST 2 /SRNA/ – Deputy Minister of Defence in the Council of Ministers, Aleksandar Goganović, told SRNA that the confirmation of the judgment against the President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, is a political decision and emphasized that Republika Srpska and its leadership will come out of this stronger.
"The process conducted against the president of Republika Srpska was politically orchestrated from the very beginning, something we have warned about multiple times, so the verdict itself is political," Goganović stated.
He said that many in official Sarajevo are celebrating this judgment, but, as he put it, they are celebrating too early.
"We would like to send them a message that Republika Srpska and its leadership will emerge stronger from this. The Serbnpeople stand by the institutions of Republika Srpska and their democratically elected president, Milorad Dodik," Goganović emphasized.
He recalled that the Serb people have endured many pressures, injustices, and attempts at humiliation throughout history, but has always emerged stronger and more united - so it will be this time as well.
"With dignity and determination, calm, we will defend Republika Srpska and the people's right to elect their representatives," Goganović concluded.
