BANJA LUKA, April 4 (Hina) - The president of the Bosnian Serb
entity, Dragan Cavic, and Republika Srpska Prime Minister and Parliament
Speaker, Igor Radojicic and Milorad Dodik respectively, said on Tuesday they
would demand the Bosnia-Herzegovina Constitutional Court to examine its
decision declaring Republika Srpska's symbols unconstitutional.
Bosnia's Constitutional Court last week adopted a decision declaring the
symbols of both Bosnian entities, namely coats of arms, flags and anthems,
unconstitutional because it established that members of the majority people in
the entities are in a privileged position. The Court also decided that the
parliaments of the Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina and Republika Srpska must
adjust their laws on symbols to the Constitution.
Republika Srpska top officials agreed at their meeting today that vital
interests of the Bosnian Serb entity must be protected and decided to ask the
Constitutional Court to re-examine its decision.
