Serbian President Aleksandar Vucuc, said Saturday that Bosnia’s Republika Srpska (RS) entity was "created by the will and desire of the Serb people on the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina," who originally wanted to remain living in Yugoslavia, and then to form their own entity in which they could feel freely, who inherited their right and adhere to the Dayton Peace Agreement.

“Serbia supports the Dayton Peace Agreement. Everything that was agreed in Dayton, everything that is the agreement between the three peoples in BiH and that is in accordance with the Dayton Agreement, we will support”, Vucic said.

He pointed out that he does not agree with the assessment of activist Aida Corovic that the upcoming “joint commemoration of 28 years since the ethnic cleansing of Serbs from Croatia is proof that Republika Srpska is a genocidal creation.”

“Republika Srpska is not a genocidal creation. We differ from many others because we are ready to talk about the crimes committed by members of our people against Bosniaks and against members of other peoples, but I am afraid that none of them is ready to speak and listen to anything when it comes to crimes against members of the Serb people,” the Serbian President added.

He said that he does not think that Serbs should be ashamed of the upcoming commemoration.

“Yes, we are going to commemorate the grave and terrible crime that was the ethnic cleansing of the Serb people from Croatia or a good part of the former ‘Republic of Serb Krajina,’ and I don't think we should be ashamed of that,” Vucic said.

The commemoration of the Day of Remembrance of all Serbs killed and exiled in the armed operation “Storm” will be held in Prijedor on August 4, the Presidents of Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik, Serbia Aleksandar Vucic and Serbian Patriarch Porfirije agreed at a meeting in Belgrade on July 20.
