The Bosnian Serb leader, the separatist and populist Milorad Dodik, on Thursday classified the High International Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Germany’s Christian Schmidt, as “fascist scum”.
“He is a fascist scum who came here to impose his views on us,” Dodik told the Bosnian Serb news agency Srna.
According to the President of the Serbian Republic of Bosnia, one of the two autonomous entities in the Balkan country, the biography of the former German minister himself confirms his assessment of him.
AND he added that the grandfathers of many other high-ranking German officials also wore “fascist officer uniforms”.
That is why he also accused Germany’s special envoy to the Western Balkans, Manuel Sarrazín, of making “imperialist” demands, with the desire to belittle, humiliate and dominate.
“They came here to kill our people! Shameless! They already killed us in the last century and they still haven’t managed to give it up,” Dodik said.
The Bosnian Serb leader believed that the “good intentions” of countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany “are visible in the two world wars, in the bombing of Serbia by NATO in 1999 and in the conquest of Kosovo ‘.
Regarding the criticism directed at him by the West, Dodik recalled that the former President of Serbia, Slobodan Milosevic, “suffered a lot for defending the Serbian people and Serbia.”
Authoritarian nationalist Milosevic died in the prison of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in The Hague while on trial for alleged war crimes.
In another interview, given on Wednesday evening, Dodik, on the other hand, praised Russia’s President Vladimir Putin: “The best person I have met in politics.”
The Bosnian Serb leader has been promoting separatist policies and measures for years with the aim of separating the Serbian Republic from the central Bosnian state.
The Bosnian Serb entity was created in 1995 as part of the Dayton peace accords that ended three years of war in the Balkan country that left about 100,000 dead and hundreds of thousands displaced.
