Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Republika Srpska Entity President to Run Again
The president of Bosnia and Herzegovina‘s Republika Srpska entity, Milorad Dodik, has announced that he will be running for the top position in the entity again. This is despite a court ruling that barred him from serving as president for six years.
Dodik said that his decision to run has already been made and confirmed. He also stated that his party, the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats (SNSD), supports his candidacy.
The BiH court had previously sentenced Dodik to one year in prison and banned him from being RS president for six years. However, Dodik is planning to go ahead with his election plans despite this ruling.
Dodik believes that the Central Election Commission of Bosnia and Herzegovina has overstepped its authority by interfering with elections in Republika Srpska. He thinks that they have taken on too many responsibilities and are not capable of handling them.
When asked about what other countries might think, Dodik said it doesn’t matter. He believes that the people have the right to choose their leader, and he is confident that he will be elected again.
