US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that through the actions of Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik, one of the two entities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, he has followed the path of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Blinken made a statement regarding Dodik, who came to the fore with his separatist rhetoric in Bosnia and Herzegovina and made ugly remarks towards LGBT people with the US ambassador to Sarajevo, Michael Murphy, in his post on his social media account.
US Secretary of State Blinken said, “Dodik’s attacks on human rights and fundamental freedoms in Republika Srpska show that Putin is on an authoritarian path.” Use the phrase.
Noting that Ambassador Murphy represents the US State Department, Blinken said that “Murphy will continue to fight for a democratic future and prosperity that the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina deserve.” He rated it.
Reply from Dodik
Dodek also rated Blinken’s post and said, “I’m glad Blinken heard me and commented on me personally. I’m glad he saw me as big as Putin, the leader of one of the greatest countries in the world, and compared me to him again.” He said.
Dodik, who had repeatedly stated that Republika Srpska would leave Bosnia and Herzegovina, announced that the United States and Britain had cut off cooperation with their embassies in Sarajevo.
While Dodik stated that he had prepared a series of laws in Republika Srpska that violate human rights and basic freedoms, he also made insulting remarks against Murphy.
