Dr. David Pettigrew: High Rep must protect the right to memorialization and oppose regional destabilization

Dr. David Pettigrew, CSU Professor of Philosophy and Holocaust and Genocide Studies at the Southern Connecticut State University, criticized High Representative Christian Schmidt, stating that he "seemed poised to appease Bosnian Serbs by ceding state property to the entity of Republika Srpska, and to appease Bosnian Croats by imposing electoral reform designed to reinforce ethnonationalist voting for so-called “legitimate” representation." He stressed that, instead of this, the High Representative should "take decisive action" to support the human right to commemoration and memorialization in the country and "counter efforts in Serbia and Republika Srpska to destabilize the region".
