Dodik is wrong when he claims that "others" have not apologized.

In October 2010, Bakir Izetbegović, the newly elected Bosniak member of Bosnia-Herzegovina's tripartite presidency, went on TV and publicly apologized for "every innocent man killed by the Bosnian Army."

A week later, Croatian president Ivo Josipović went to the Bosnian village of Paulin Dvor, where 18 Serb civilians had been killed by Croat forces in 1991, laid a wreath and stated that "the crime deserves condemnation, victims our piety, and those who are left behind the victims deserve an apology".

When Dodik talks about an apology by the RS government, he is alluding to a previous RS government's conclusions about Srebrenica, adopted in 2004 -

It is shameful that now Milorad Dodik tries to take credit for the apology, while at the same time he is busy disputing the previous RS government's conclusions concerning the facts and responsibilities of what happened in Srebrenica in July 1995. The RS government's 2004 apology was based on facts. Dodik's current attempts to deny those facts are based on nothing but cynical opportunism.
