BANJA LUKA, September 18 (FENA) - The Main Board of the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats (SNSD) today proposed holding of a session of the National Assembly of RS, “to determine a proposal to hold talks with the Federation of BiH to discuss the state-level laws on defense, the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of BiH, and indirect taxes, as well as the provisions of the Constitution of BiH on Civil Rights and Freedoms, that speak about peoples have the right to self-determination.”
The SNSD leader Milorad Dodik said that “there are only specific decisions of the National Assembly with regards to these laws, and that all the other institutions, such as the Intelligence and SecurityAgency, the BiH Investigation and Protection Agency, were formed outside the Constitution and without the consent of RS.”
“All this should therefore be considered temporary and cannot be accepted as a permanent solution and we think that the RS Parliament should form a delegation to discuss with the FBiH Parliament and see how these issues can be resolved. If the activities in this regard are rejected, the SNSD Main Board will demand that all the laws and decisions passed under pressure from the High Representative and even those passed in the parliament are no longer considered valid,” added Dodik.
“The SNSD Main Board confirmed that the introduction of the Bonn Powers was outside the Constitution and did not comply with the international agreement and that everything produced on the basis of the Bonn Powers cannot be definitive but is considered temporary. We want to have a debate, having in mind the fact that RS is a party to the contract and that together with the Federation of BiH it can discuss all these issues,” Dodik said at a press conference in Banja Luka.
The SNSD has rejected “all the imposed decisions by the High Representative and now demands dialogue within BiH on all the issues that had previously been the subject of intervention by the international community, primarily in relation to the laws that changed the jurisdiction system in BiH, and led to the fact that RS was stripped off 69 of its competencies.”
He says that the SNSD rejects “the SDA's proposals for the establishment of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, to carry out its territorial transformation, and to define Sarajevo as the capital of BiH within its pre-war city limits.”
“These are unacceptable things for us, it is a collapse of the Dayton Peace Agreement, anti-constitutional activity and it threatens peace in BiH.
Therefore, the SNSD is of the opinion that unless the situation in BiH is conducted in terms of respect for the original Dayton PA, the provisions of the BiH Constitution on Civil Rights and Freedoms, where it is provided that peoples have the right to self-determination, should then be applied. It is definitely clear that there is a provision on self-determination in the BiH Constitution and that it should be properly read and affirmed in this regard,” reiterated Dodik.
"The SNSD does not plan to cooperate with the SDA in any way," said Dodik, confirming that the SNSD “would propose its own candidate for the NSRS deputy speaker from the Bosniak people.”
The SNSD's Main Board has elected Željka Cvijanović, Radovan Višković, Nikola Špirić, Nebojša Radmanović and Igor Radojičić as the party vice presidents, while Luka Petrović was re-elected the party’s secretary general.
