JATRAS: VERDICT AGAINST DODIK - SYMPTOM OF EU'S DYING POWER

WASHINGTON, AUGUST 3 /SRNA/ - Prominent American analyst James Jatras said that the second-instance verdict against President of Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik is a symptom of a an European increasingly desperate dying power, and that people of Srpska should stand in support of the elected president and defy this unjust and illegal diktat.

Jatras told SRNA that the verdict against President Dodik is further proof that the European Union no longer can be considered an economic organization but is first and foremost an aggressive geopolitical crime syndicate.

According to him, with the approaching Russian victory in Ukraine, the dynamics of power in Europe are dramatically changing in RS's favor.

"This attack on Mr. Dodik and the Serbian people is a symptom of a an increasingly desperate dying power," Jatras concluded.

The Appellate Division of the Court of BiH confirmed on Friday, August 1, the first-instance verdict against Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik, which sentenced him to one year in prison and a six-year ban on political activity for "disrespecting Christian Schmitt's decisions".
