Aleksandar Vucic (BETAPHOTO/MILOS MISKOV)
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic on June 10 said he would respond to the remarks made by the US Embassy in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, describing the conclusions adopted at the All-Serb Assembly held in Belgrade on June 8, as an attack on the Dayton Peace Accords and the state institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
“The US Embassy in Sarajevo has presented its opinion. They will get an answer tomorrow. For the first time in capacity of Serbian president I will ask them some questions, and trust me, they will have no answers to them, although the questions will relate to the very Dayton Peace Agreement,” Vucic has written on his Instagram.
He also said “the problem is that they are not used to seeing independent and sovereign countries or leaders who do not wish to cater to them, but rather defend the interests of their own peoples.”
On June 10, the US Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina said that the conclusions adopted at the All-Serb Assembly held in Belgrade on June 8 “do not constitute a defense of the Dayton Peace Agreement, as the authors claim, but are a deliberate attack on that agreement and the state institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina”.
The statement also said that “the public statements made by Republika Srpska (RS) officials about the conclusions and plans for RS “disassociation” – secession by another name – represent both an attack on the Dayton Peace Agreement and on the territorial integrity, sovereignty, and multiethnic character of Bosnia and Herzegovina.”
At the All-Serb Assembly on June 8, the governments of Serbia and RS adopted a Declaration on the protection of national and political rights and the common future of the Serb people, which, among other things, states that the Serb people is “a unified whole.” The Declaration contains 49 conclusions.
