BiH Presidency member Milorad Dodik criticised Bosnia’s Constitutional Court after it ruled that the law banning genocide denial must be applied in BiH’s Republika Srpska (RS) entity, saying the decision “means nothing” to the RS.
In July last year, the former High Representative of the international community tasked with overseeing the civilian implementation of the Dayton Peace Agreement, Valentin Inzko, used his special powers to impose a law banning genocide and war crimes denial, as well as glorification of convicted war criminals in the country.
Several days later, the RS National Assembly adopted a law declaring that Inzko’s law will not be applied on the territory of the entity.
On Friday, the Constitutional Court declared that this law was not in line with the BiH Constitution.
“The Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina makes political decisions, and in those decisions, it refers to practice, not to the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It thereby contradicts itself. The Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina established this practice by violating the Constitution, and now it is referring to it. Such decisions mean nothing for Republika Srpska,” Dodik wrote on Twitter.
