"Now, I will work with even greater zeal only for what is in the interest of the Republic of Srpska," PM Milorad Dodik says. "The story that I am allegedly at the helm of a criminal organization was concocted to make the RS disappear," he told Belgrade daily Politika in an interview published this Sunday. Dodik vows "even more zeal" Dodik yesterday walked out of a tripartite meeting in Mostar called to discuss Bosnia's constitutional reforms. Earlier in the week, fraud charges were brought against him. "The filing of a report to the Bosnian Prosecution, where a group of employees of the Agency for Investigations and Protection marked me as the chief of a criminal organization group, is nothing but yet another attempt to destabilize and then abolish the RS." The foreign factor and a majority of the Bosniak (Muslim) political elite first, according to Dodik, counted on the Hague Tribunal rulings to be "the end of the Republic of Srpska", to then turn to revisions of the Dayton Accords, through which they transferred RS powers over to the common Bosnian organs. "Now, a third scenario is put on stage – an attempt to prove that former and current RS ruling structures are criminalized, that it is ruled by mafiosi and that it therefore should not exist," he told the daily. The leader of the SDA, the largest Muslim party, Sulejman Tihic, also commented on the situation today by saying that "everything related to the report against RS Premier Milorad Dodik happened at an awkward moment". "Whoever is guilty should be held responsible, but this is not a matter for a media campaign. Everything is happening at an awkward moment and I'm afraid that it is reflecting on what we managed to achieve so far," said he. Croat Democratic Alliance (HDZ BiH) leader Dragan Covic said that the report has "rocked the atmosphere in Bosnia", and that he personally is "one of those who can understand Dodik and the situation he is in".

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
