SHOYGU: MEASURES TAKEN BY SRPSKA, SUPPORTED BY RUSSIA, WILL BRING RESULTS

MOSCOW, September 10 /SRNA/ - Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Sergey Shoigu emphasized at the start of his meeting with Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik in Moscow that the situation in BiH is very tense and expressed hope that the measures being undertaken by Republika Srpska, with Russia's support, will yield results.

President Dodik stated that the situation is under control, SRNA's correspondent from Moscow reports.

"Much of this is new and requires discussion in detail. The Western powers, primarily Germany and the United Kingdom, are attempting to control the Balkans and impose sanctions on anyone who does not suit them," Dodik stressed.

Also attending the meeting between Dodik and Shoigu were Republika Srpska Minister of Internal Affairs Željko Budimir, head of the Srpska Representative Office in Moscow Duško Perović and legal expert Slavko Mitrović.

During his visit to Moscow, President Dodik also held separate meetings with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Russian Presidential aide Yury Ushakov.
