TRIŠIĆ-BABIĆ: LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE GIVES BEST ANSWER TO OPPOSITION LIES ABOUT SRPSKA'S FINANCIAL TROUBLES AND ISOLATION

BANJA LUKA, MARCH 27 /SRNA/ - Former Acting President of Republika Srpska Ana Trišić-Babić stated that the success achieved by Republika Srpska through the sale of bonds on the London Stock Exchange is enormous.

"Just as everyone knows that banks grant loans only to those they are certain can repay them, our people also know that investors invest only where it is safe, stable, and responsibly managed," Trišić-Babić told SRNA, commenting on yesterday's successful sale of Eurobonds on the international capital market.

She pointed out that there is no greater recognition for Republika Srpska than the trust shown yesterday at one of the world’s most important financial markets.

"The fact that the opposition, in its bias, fails to see this only shows how narrow-minded and blinded by political hatred they are. Let them explain one simple thing to the people – who offers one billion Euros to someone who is, as they claim, failing or bankrupt?" said the former Acting President of Srpska.

She said that people in Republika Srpska are satisfied with the success of their economy.

"The only ones unhappy are the opposition – because they see every success of Srpska as their own defeat. For years, together with the political Sarajevo, they have been spreading the narrative that Republika Srpska is facing financial problems and isolation. Yesterday, the London Stock Exchange gave the best answer to that lie," Trišić-Babić said.

She emphasized that Republika Srpska is today stronger than ever on the international stage and more stable than ever at home, which, she added, is as certain as the opposition's defeat in this year's elections.
