When asked about the UN General Assembly session which was earlier announced by Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and the Resolution on Srebrenica which is still being drafted, Schmidt said:

“I understand that it’s not about looking back, but that it’s something for the future so that something similar does not happen again. What I want to remove from the table is anyone's fear that the Republika Srpska (RS) entity will disappear. No, not at all. I am the guarantor of the survival of Federation (FBiH) entity, RS, Brcko District and BiH. Anyone who wants to abolish the RS must face me. I have to defend the Dayton Agreement and what is stated in it. No fear, I am one of those who will be the first to defend the structures. As for the UN Resolution, I think there is enough time to discuss it.”

When asked if he would address the session of the UN General Assembly in New York, he said:

“I will address the session of the UN General Assembly. I will report on developments in terms of EU integration and I will also report on the obstacles I see. I will also talk about the failures we have made in terms of the return of refugees. The youth are leaving, we can lose a whole generation”.
