Pejanovic said that the lists of candidates of democratic
citizens' parties consisted of a large number of Serb citizens "who
were established as fighters for a multiethnic, democratic and
secular state of Bosnia-Herzegovina during the war and all of them
have won the support of the SGV".
The SGV fought for the organization of Bosnia as a modern
federation with a high decentralization of authority in cantons and
for "ensuring the equality of peoples in decision making in the
parliament and the future Bosnian presidency," Pejanovic said.
