SARAJEVO, June 11 (FENA) - The President of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Nermin Nikšić, will remain in that position, and the elections in the party will be held after the end of the next local elections in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the SDP delegates decided at a congress that was held on Saturday.
The delegates did not decide by voting on the president, but by deciding to extend the intra-party elections until the specified deadline.
This development of events was announced by Nikšić himself in a statement to journalists ahead of the congress.
"It is very likely that the delegates will propose extending the elections in the SDP until after the local elections. Their assessment is that at this moment what we have undertaken as obligations is more important; to work on strengthening the state and its institutions, fulfilling our pre-election promises, rather than spending the next half year on the election campaign within the SDP, lobbying, making assumptions about who will be next president, to deal with ourselves instead of what lies ahead," said the incumbent leader of the SDP BiH Nermin Nikšić.
