Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik has called on voters in the Serb-dominated entity of Republika Srpska to reject what he describes as "Sarajevo crooks" in the upcoming election, framing the vote as a pivotal moment for the region’s political future. His remarks come amid heightened tensions over Bosnia’s constitutional structure and the influence of central government institutions, with Dodik accusing federal authorities of overreach and corruption. The election follows years of political deadlock, with ethnic divisions remaining a defining feature of Bosnia’s post-war governance. Critics warn the rhetoric risks deepening divisions ahead of a vote that could reshape the country’s fragile balance of power.
