Tadić "not interfering in Bosnian affairs"

President Boris Tadic has denied that his visit to Pale this week constituted interference in the internal affairs of Bosnia-Herzegovina. "I would like to visit Sarajevo before the end of the year. They can invite me, I will come immediately. No invitation has arrived yet. Perhaps it’s because Ratko Mladic is not in The Hague, or some internal Bosnian issue. I repeat, they can invite me, I will come immediately," Tadic said in a statement for Belgrade daily Politika published on Thursday. Tadic "not interfering in Bosnian affairs" “My invitation to Bosniak representatives is always open,” the president added. "One should not go looking for problems where there aren't any. As a signatory of the Dayton Accords, Serbia respects the territorial integrity of Bosnia-Herzegovina and will do nothing to jeopardize it," he said. Tadic underscored that his visit to Pale on Tuesday was in no way interference in Bosnian internal affairs, stressing that Serbia would always respect the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and everything agreed on by the three constitutive people—Bosniaks, Croats and Serbs. The president said that the building of the school in Pale had been agreed long ago as part of the special and parallel ties between Serbia and the Republic of Srpska. “I proposed building a school, for example, in Raska or Sandzak, which would be called 'Bosna’. I’d happily attend its opening," he explained. Boris Tadic in Pale yesterday (FoNet)
