Dignitaries, who convened in Sarajevo on Wednesday, called on local politicians and international representatives not to ignore the fact that Croats are a constituent people in Bosnia and Herzegovina and correspondingly the new government should not be formed without representatives for whom the majority of the Croats voted.
According to a statement which the Bosnian KTA Catholic news agency issued on Thursday, the dignitaries said Croats were confused and felt fear while a political crisis was being instigated and representatives, who were elected by a majority of Bosnian Croats, were being excluded from the structures of the legislative and executive branches of power.
The dignitaries support all political officials who in the Croat people "defend the equality of the Croats unselfishly and resolutely by legal political means, and thus defend the vital interest of Bosnia and Herzegovina."
