Milorad Dodik: I won't go under pressure
Milorad Dodik turned to the media from Sarajevo after receiving information that SIPA officers tried to deliver his arrest warrant. – We had a meeting all the time, we didn't interrupt him. I feel fine. I am healthy, alive and I do not intend to leave this place under pressure. This is the Serbian Republic. [SIPA] This is not an agency behind the Serbian Republic. They broke the law. We saw that there was also the brother of Kemal Ademovic, the head of AID during the war, the one who did everything to demonize us in many places, to cause Serbian suffering: these people from Sipa are trying to do something, but they can't. They do not represent the Serbian Republic – said Dodik.
– Does anyone really think that the police, whose task is to protect the institution, will bow to the occupation forces such as Sipa, the court [Bośni i Hercegowiny]prosecutor's office and [sędzia] Schmidt? If so, it's stupid. Five thousand policemen or 1.2 million Serbs cannot be imprisoned. We know that you want to expel us, but you will drive out the entire Serbian Republic from Bosnia and Herzegovina. We won't go to war, we don't need weapons. We are convinced that we must defend what is holy for us. If you had at least a bit of respect for the Serbian Republic, there would be no situation that [sędzia] Schmidt decides, and the Muslim court runs – added Dodik, referring to the order to arrest.
Sipa also took the floor. – I can confirm that SIPA members stayed in the administrative center of the Serbian Republic of the Serbian Republic in Eastern Sarajevo in connection with the execution of the court's decision of the Bosnia and Herzegovina court regarding the crime of non -performance of the decision of the Constitutional Tribunal. We tried to meet the order, but the members of the SIPA were prevented by the Ministry of the Interior – said spokeswoman Sipa Jelena Miovć.
Darko Ćulum, who is still the official director of SIPA, said to the media that “he has nothing to do with it and knows who has.”
Interior Minister of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Ramo Isak, said that The Federal Police Administration (FUP) can help Sipa in the arrest of Dodik. He stated that FUP is ready to give SIPA immediate help if he received such an order from state judicial institutions.
