The leader of Bosnia and Herzegovina's Serbs, Milorad Dodik, has threatened to split Republika Srpska from the rest of Bosnia over a dispute involving a property law.

"We are seriously considering making a decision on independence and secession of Republika Srpska [from Bosnia], if the property issue is not resolved," Dodik said.

He made the comments in Belgrade, where he was received by the Serbian president, Aleksandar Vucic.

Republika Srpska has tried several times to implement a property law that provides for the transfer of Bosnian state property to Republika Srpska – despite it being deemed unconstitutional.

The law represents a direct challenge to earlier decisions by Bosnia's top international representative, Christian Schmidt, to repeal the decree that created the law and suspend it pending a final decision by Bosnia's Constitutional Court.

Republika Srpska says the law aims to ensure that properties used by the authorities of this entity – including local governments, public enterprises, public institutions and other departments established by Republika Srpska – belong to them.

Bosnia's Constitutional Court has declared that the country's Parliament must pass a property law that would be valid in all of Bosnia, not just in one of the country's two entities.

The 1995 Dayton Accords, which ended the civil war in Bosnia, created an administrative system under which Bosnia remains divided between the Serbian entity – Republika Srpska – and the Bosnian-Croat Federation.

Dodik, who has been sanctioned by the US and Britain for attempted destabilization and corruption, has repeatedly threatened to seek independence for Republika Srpska from the rest of Bosnia.

He rejects the administrative arrangement of this country and the authority of the Office of the International High Representative, which oversees the civil and other aspects of the Dayton Agreement./REL
