The President of Bosnia’s Republika Srpska (RS) entity, Milorad Dodik, reacted to calls by European Parliament members to impose sanctions against him, saying that there is no reason for a conflict between him and the EU because he is only trying to protect the RS.
“My policy is to get closer to the EU, but on the condition that the Republika Srpska is visible in the capacity it has in the Constitution and in the coordination mechanism, and there is no problem there. If they want to somehow question it, let them do so,” said Dodik.

Dodik's statement comes after the chairman of the delegation of the European Parliament for relations with Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romeo Franz, and the standing Rapporteur, Paulo Rangel, called for sanctions to be imposed on him over the unconstitutional January 9 celebration of the “Day of Republika Srpska”.
“Members of the European Parliament want to introduce sanctions against me because I am persistent in protecting the interests of Republika Srpska, and the same was the case last year,” commented Dodik.
