DODIK: IT WAS DIFFICULT TO BUILD RELATIONS, BUT TODAY THEY KNOW WHAT SRPSKA IS FIGHTING FOR

MOSCOW, SEPTEMBER 28 /SRNA/ - President Milorad Dodik said today in Moscow that it had also been difficult to build relations in Russia and explain that some people knew where Republika Srpska was, but that today everyone involved in politics knows very well what it is fighting for.

"Everyone involved in politics today knows perfectly well both where it is and what it is fighting for," Dodik told reporters after lecturing students at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations.

Dodik said there was great interest among young people in Russia in learning as much as possible about Republika Srpska.

He stressed that any policy, particularly diplomacy, is successful if it is persistent and principled.

"Russian diplomacy is leading the way today," Dodik stressed.

Dodik expressed satisfaction that students from Republika Srpska are also studying at this university.
