DODIK VISITING THE UNITED STATES AGAIN SOON

BANJA LUKA, OCTOBER 2 /SRNA/ – SNSD Leader Milorad Dodik announced that he would soon travel to the United States again.


Dodik said that the European path had proved to be anti-Serb, describing it as a path toward abolishing Republika Srpska and the Serb people in this region.

“That is why we have to come together, examine the facts and reach certain conclusions,” Dodik said.

He said that the Republika Srpska leadership would continue working to strengthen the Republic institutions.

“I believe we will have connections with America and our partners in Europe, not with Brussels, with Russia and some other distant countries, as well as with China,” Dodik said.

He said that the collective West was doing everything to turn BiH into a Muslim country and that it continued to treat Serbs unfairly and asymmetrically, including their aspirations to live as one people in a single state.

Dodik said that the Serb people must consider the growing influence of Muslims in decision-making in Europe.

“In accordance with these processes, they will naturally support Muslim Sarajevo. Therefore, our position in BiH and beyond could become increasingly difficult in the period ahead. We must think about that,” Dodik told ATV.

He pointed out that the collective West was doing everything to turn BiH into a Muslim country, stressing that the European path had proved to be anti-Serb, describing it as a path toward abolishing Republika Srpska and the Serb people in this region.

Speaking about his upcoming 30th meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Dodik said it would certainly not be held in Banja Luka but would be organised soon somewhere in Russia.

“Putin promised me that he would attend the consecration of the Russian-Serbian church in Banja Luka, but we can see what the circumstances in the world are like. If geopolitical relations in the world normalize and such an opportunity arises, I am sure Putin would have no objection to coming to Banja Luka,” Dodik said.

Dodik expressed satisfaction that he has an excellent and experienced team of associates around him, with each person handling their tasks.

“Željka Cvijanović is unquestionably the leader of our international team in that regard. I head the team dealing with internal affairs and coordinate the aforementioned international relations, especially where my authority allows me to reach major statesmen, such as Vladimir Putin, Benjamin Netanyahu, or the White House,” Dodik said.
