US Senator Chuck Grassley warns Serb and Croat separatists in Bosnia

In a post on social media platform X, Grassley warned against separatist ambitions, drawing parallels to the conflicts of the 1990s.
“Milorad Dodik is the Serb leader in Bosnia supporting separatism. Now Bosnian Croat separatists are getting into the act. This is a worrying echo of the ‘90s for many Iowans who fled separatist violence after war and genocide in the ‘90s. It didn’t end well for separatists then & won’t now,” the US senator wrote.

Grassley’s remarks highlight growing concerns in Washington over political instability in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the potential consequences of renewed nationalist rhetoric.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Saturday that Milorad Dodik's proceedings undermine the institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina and endanger its safety and stability.
