RUSSIA RAISES ISSUE OF CONSTITUTIONAL COURT OF BIH IN UN SECURITY COUNCIL

NEW YORK, JULY 8 (ONASA) – Russia has raised the issue of the “dangerous situation surrounding the Constitutional Court of BiH” in the United Nations Security Council, said the spokesman of Russia’s permanent mission to the UN, Fyodor Strzhizhovski.
Stržižovski stated that making decisions in the Constitutional Court of BiH “without the participation of Serbs or any other state-forming people of BiH is a path that leads to the destruction of the Dayton structure and, what is especially dangerous, to a potential conflict.”
Today, Russia raised the issue of the dangerous situation surrounding the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the UN Security Council. As a result of provocative changes to the rules of his work, Republika Srpska is excluded from the decision-making process – said Stržižovski.
He pointed out that the continuation of the work of three foreign judges in the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina is an anachronism, Sputnik reports.
All these steps fit into the policy of Western countries to maintain the protectorate status in Bosnia and Herzegovina, among other things, through the illegitimate Christian Schmidt, who did not receive the approval of the Supreme Council of Justice. However, we are convinced that the peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina have the right to decide on their own, without external control, the future vector of their country’s development based on mutual respect and seeking compromises – said the Russian diplomat.
