VIŠKOVIĆ: GREAT BRITAIN WANTS TO SOLVE ITS OWN PROBLEMS, NOT THOSE OF BiH

BANJA LUKA, JUNE 18 /SRNA/ - Republika Srpska Prime Minister Radovan Višković stated today that BiH Presidency members Denis Bećirović and Željko Komšić cannot secure anything beneficial for BiH from official London, as Great Britain is focused on solving its own problems, not those of BiH.

"Bećirović and Komšić might just bring problems back here, since London wants to send us migrants," Višković said. He emphasized that official London is trying to get rid of migrants in a perfidious manner. "As far as Republika Srpska is concerned, we do not wish to discuss this topic either with London or with Brussels, primarily because the composition of the migrants is problematic. Their involvement in certain conflict zones is controversial, and they represent a potential security threat for any new area, BiH included," Višković told RTRS, commenting on the recent visit of BiH Presidency members to London. We are witnessing, he says, reactions from citizens in the Federation of BiH regarding the migrant camps. "In Blažuj, people are demanding that the federal municipality of Ilidža shut down the camp, not that a new one be opened. They say they feel threatened and unsafe in their own homes. Believe it or not, even they support President Milorad Dodik's statements on the issue of migrants and the migrant crisis in BiH," Višković stated. He emphasized that politicians from Sarajevo have lost one of their levers of power. "They no longer have Michael Murphy /former US Ambassador to BiH/, they no longer have the support of the American Embassy, and now, in a way, like small children seeking protection, they have turned to London. I see that it is their favorite destination. London is nice for a tourist visit. I don’t see anything else except that they were on a tourist visit," Višković said.
