The President of the Republic of Srpska, Milorad Dodik, said that this entity, one of the two who make up Bosnia and Herzegovina, will request to participate in the military cooperation agreement that Serbia and Hungary have concluded this week, reports EFE, quoted by Agerpres.

“The Republic of Srpska should never enter NATO. Tomorrow (Saturday), our government will ask to be included in the military agreement with Serbia and Hungary. We have the right to it,” said Milorad Dodik on Friday, according to Serbian Public Television.

The Serbian nationalist leader, who for many years demands the separation from Bosnia and Herzegovina of the Republic of Srpska and its union with Serbia, also said that the Serbian entity could participate in this military agreement with its police units.

Dodik has radicalized his positions from the end of February, after being sentenced by a Bosnian justice to one year in prison and six years of banning a public position. He also pushed laws that prohibit the actions of the judicial and Bosnian police bodies on the territory of the Serbian entity.

As a result of these activities considered unconstitutional, he is presented as a fugitive by the Bosnian justice, who issued an arrest warrant on his behalf.

Hungary, a member country of NATO and the EU, and Serbia, signed a strategic cooperation agreement on Tuesday in Belgrade. Serbian president Aleksandar Vucic said he sees in this agreement a step towards creating a military alliance between the two neighboring countries.

Vucic on Friday accused the West of supporting Muslims of Bosnia and Herzegovina in their “obsession to eliminate the Serbs” from this country and to destroy the Republic of Srpska.

Bosnia and Herzegovina is divided from the conclusion of the Civil War, in 1995, in two autonomous entities, the Republic of Srpska and the Croato-Muslim Federation, the Bosnian state also having central power institutions.

With the proximity of the 30th anniversary of the Dayton agreements, which have ended the war, Bosnia is facing a serious political crisis that threatens more than ever.
