DODIK: FOREIGN OCCUPATION OF BiH MUST BE REJECTED THROUGH REFERENDUM

BANJA LUKA, SEPTEMBER 3 /SRNA/ - Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik said that a referendum is a priority for Republika Srpska, as it must reject foreign occupation in BiH.

Dodik stated that foreigners in BiH hold both political and military power, that the moment Christian Schmidt began restricting property rights, Republika Srpska responded that this was unacceptable and that they then realized they had to eliminate the political leadership of Srpska to push that issue through.

“We are in an occupied zone. For 30 years, we have been occupied by foreigners, who hold political and military power here, with political backing from certain key capitals. The time has come for this to end. But not just like that. If they want us to remain in BiH, they will have to revoke everything that Christian Schmidt imposed, because he restricted our control over property, which is the key issue,” Dodik told RT Balkan.

Dodik emphasized that for those who want to understand, that’s what it all comes down to; it’s useless to talk to those who refuse to understand.
