KOŠARAC: REPUBLIKA SRPSKA IS SOVEREIGN, NOT PROTECTORATE

SARAJEVO, FEBRUARY 5 /SRNA/ - Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers, Staša Košarac, said that the repetition of the imposed early elections for the President of Republika Srpska is a Brussels decree, but that Republika Srpska's sovereignty is the policy of Milorad Dodik and the SNSD.

Košarac added that Brussels and certain Western European embassies are exerting malign influence in BiH

“I will reiterate – we do not accept a colonial approach, a protectorate,” Košarac wrote on Instagram.

He emphasized that Republika Srpska is sovereign and is not and will not be a colony. “This is the clear policy of Milorad Dodik and the SNSD,” Košarac stated.
