STEVANDIĆ: STABLE INSTITUTIONS ESSENTIAL FOR SRPSKA

BANJA LUKA, JUNE 30 /SRNA/ – United Srpska President Nenad Stevandić has stated that Republika Srpska needs stable institutions and responsible leadership, warning that difficult times lie ahead as the political situation in Europe and the region is far from ideal.

"We must be capable of withstanding the challenges, as we have demonstrated over the past year, when we proved we are winners despite the fact that no one gave us any chance," Stevandić told reporters in Banja Luka following the meeting of the ruling coalition.

He said United Srpska has always been a state-oriented party with personnel and institutional presence throughout Republika Srpska.

"That will continue in the future, because Srpska is our joint interest," Stevandić said.
