SRPSKA RECOGNIZED AS A STATE-LEGAL ENTITY

BANJA LUKA, APRIL 2 /SRNA/ - Republika Srpska National Assembly Speaker Nenad Stevandić has pointed out today in Banja Luka that the meeting between the presidents of Srpska and Russia, Milorad Dodik and Vladimir Putin, is a confirmation that Republika Srpska is recognized as a legal entity.

"The President of the Republic /Milorad Dodik/, the Prime Minister of Srpska /Radovan Višković/ and I still have many meeting invitations for outside of Republika Srpska and BiH," Stevandić told the press.

He has reiterated that neither BiH authorities can make decisions on behalf of Republika Srpska without the Dayton formula, nor can internationals.

"If Srpska does not agree to something, it cannot be implemented. We taught everyone a lesson, because legalizing violence is not normal. Everyone knows that Christian Schmidt is not legal and therefore cannot make legal decisions," Stevandić stressed.

He has stated that Republika Srpska is on the right side of history and always fights against violence.

Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik met yesterday in Moscow with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
