MINIĆ: SRPSKA MOVING FORWARD INSTITUTIONALLY

BANJA LUKA, MARCH 16 /SRNA/ – Republika Srpska Prime Minister Savo Minić stated that Republika Srpska is moving forward institutionally and that nothing can stop it.

After submitting his resignation from the position of prime minister, Minić emphasized that this was a necessary move and that those who do not wish well to Republika Srpska had been questioning the legality and legitimacy of the Government, although it had always been legal.

He said that everything would be formalized during this week and that nothing can stop Republika Srpska.

"We are demonstrating political strength, seriousness and power," Minić said at an extraordinary press conference in Banja Luka.

He pointed out that all the ambassadors he had met with in recent days had been saying that "the Government of Republika Srpska is questionable and is being challenged for various reasons".

"As if they do not see that this directly harms the citizens of BiH as well, because the Fiscal Council is not functioning and there are no meetings that should in any way enable normal life," Minić said.

He stressed that the damage from this directly affects the institutions and citizens of Republika Srpska and the Serb people in BiH.

"For that reason I decided on this move. This will be the formal part. Politics implies serious and necessary moves; this is a necessary move. With this, we have repealed all theories about any kind of institutional crisis in Republika Srpska," Minić concluded.
