The Croatia Libertas NGO says that the decision to paint pavements in Sarajevo in green is pure provocation. The non-governmental organization stated that the painted pavements were a clear message from Muslims to all the city’s other residents that Sarajevo was not the capital city of Bosnia-Herzegovina, but an ethnically Bosniak capital. Green pavements deemed “provocation” “This is a message of intolerance and a perfidious scene of ethnic cleansing that was preconceived as a way to drive away people of other ethnicities and religions living in Sarajevo,” said NGO President Leo Plockinic. He said that nowhere in the world were streets and pavements painted green—the color traditionally linked with Islam—not even in Tehran. “It is clear that Sarajevo wants to be a greater Tehran than the capital city of the Islamic Republic of Iran itself,” Plockinic surmised. Sarajevo Mayor Semiha Borovac said that painting the pavements and streets green would be good for the city, because the city lacked greenery.
