KONAKOVIĆ HAS ONCE AGAIN MISSED NOT ONLY THE BALL, BUT THE ENTIRE STADIUM

BANJA LUKA, JULY 16 /SRNA/ - Serb member of the BiH Presidency Željka Cvijanović said that Foreign Minister in the Council of Ministers Elmedin Konaković had once again missed not only the ball, but the entire stadium, and that no one takes him seriously anymore.

Commenting on reports in Federation media that Konaković, while in Washington, had "called for a stronger response to politically motivated terrorism and also mentioned Dodik," Cvijanović said that his appearance at the conference in Washington followed the same pattern and that, once again, he had concealed the real terrorist threats in BiH while inventing non-existent ones. "Whatever the topic may be, he talks about Milorad Dodik. Obsession, nightmare, whatever it is, he neither knows nor can go beyond that," Cvijanović said. She also noted that he had fabricated claims of secessionism to conceal the anti-Dayton and unitarist Bosniak policies. "When speaking about terrorism and the undermining of democratic institutions, he could have said that BiH is living under conditions of political and legal terrorism, in which unelected foreigners enact laws instead of democratically elected institutions," Cvijanović wrote on X. However, as she noted, as a minister, he is not interested in what two of the country's three constituent peoples think, nor does he care about what is written in the Constitution and laws, which he continuously violates. "Konaković is a renegade minister who speaks exclusively in his own name, not on behalf of the other peoples, whom he does not regard as equal partners but rather as obstacles to the anti-Dayton centralisation of BiH," Cvijanović pointed out. She stressed that Konaković has damaged BiH's reputation wherever he has gone and that this is the only thing in which he has been consistent. She added that he does not believe in BiH and its peoples, but rather in unelected foreigners. "He does not believe in domestic dialogue, but rather in foreign interventionism and the so-called Bonn powers. He will be remembered as the minister who fought to keep in BiH a man who blatantly trampled on its sovereignty, but who, despite Konaković's lobbying efforts, ultimately had to pack his bags," Cvijanović concluded.
