Milorad Dodik proposed that the Bosnia-Herzegovina military be abolished. The Republic of Srpska (RS) prime minister said that the entire country should be demilitarized. Dodik wants Bosnian army abolished “There will be armed forces but they will only be used for sending soldiers abroad, because military funds burden the Bosnia-Herzegovina budget by over EUR 300mn a year, which we could use for social and developmental causes,” Dodik said. He said that the NATO can ensure long-term stability in Bosnia-Herzegovina. “The current Bosnia-Herzegovina military is a caricature,” he said, adding that the military costs a lot more than international advisors estimated that it would cost when the armed forces were being set up. Dodik said that Bosnia-Herzegovina is a stable country, without ethnic violence and that it is preparing to sign the Stabilization and Association Agreement (SAA) with the EU. He added that there will no longer need to be an International High Representative monitoring the country once the SAA is signed. “We cannot accept anyone making decisions in our name. We are not political infants,” Dodik said. He criticized High Representative Miroslav Lajcak, stating that his interventions were responsible for creating chaos in Bosnia-Herzegovina last year. “I do not wish to be a decoration. I do not want to be Lajcak’s subject. I am well aware of my political power and institutional strength,” Dodik said. “The Republic of Srpska is an unavoidable and permanent part of Bosnia-Herzegovina. We do not want to be verified as anything else but a part of Bosnia-Herzegovina. Republic of Srpska has a stable budget and billions of dollars in development, so it does not need any kind of destabilization,” Dodik said.
