MAZALICA: FOREIGN OCCUPIER CAN NO LONGER EXIST IN BiH

BANJA LUKA, SEPTEMBER 18 /SRNA/ - The co-chairman of the Republika Srpska - Serbia Parliamentary Forum Srđan Mazalica told SRNA that today's Forum session in Banja Luka sent a message of freedom, namely that a foreign occupier can no longer exist in BiH.

Mazalica reminded that this refers to the unelected High Representative Christian Schmidt, and that his colonial-style dictatorship, in which democratically elected representatives are illegally dismissed, is unacceptable in Republika Srpska. "I believe that representatives of Bosniaks and Croats in BiH are increasingly realizing this as well. Recently, we also spoke with some Members of the European Parliament who are open to the idea of Schmidt leaving this country," Mazalica said after the Forum, which brought together Serbs from Republika Srpska, Serbia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. He noted that the Forum highlighted issues related to the economy, demographics, and social matters. "I believe we should be leaders of such ideas, as well as those concerning regional economic cooperation and the principles of the Open Balkans," Mazalica said, adding that Serbs will continue to uphold the ideas of resistance against foreign conquerors and occupiers. The Parliamentary Forum of Serbia and Republika Srpska includes delegations from the National Assembly of Serbia and the National Assembly of Republika Srpska, with each delegation consisting of 11 members. The first session of the Parliamentary Forum of Serbia and Republika Srpska took place on July 2nd of last year in Banja Luka.
