DODIK: I WILL ATTEND GENERAL MLADIĆ'S FUNERAL

BANJA LUKA, AUGUST 31 /SRNA/ - SNSD leader Milorad Dodik stated today in Banja Luka that he will attend the funeral of General Ratko Mladić.

"They forbid people from expressing their views on Mladić. Is this possible, let them now record who will be at his funeral," Dodik said at a press conference following the SNSD Presidency session.

He reminded that the Muslim wartime commander Rasim Delić was given full honors in Sarajevo, even though he was convicted of war crimes.

"In Sarajevo, they have the Court and the Prosecutor's Office of BiH, which they instrumentalize for their own policies. We accept the Dayton BiH, not the one they want in Sarajevo," Dodik reiterated.

He added that all the competencies prescribed by the Dayton Agreement must be put back on the agenda.

"It is high time we talked. I wonder how those from Sarajevo have poor relations with the Croats as well, and not just with us. Does this say it all," Dodik said.
