CLAIM: The High Representative discriminates against Others because his decisions do not refer to the election of BiH Presidency and BiH House of Peoples members

FACT: The right to change provisions of the BiH Constitution, which is part of the Dayton Peace Agreement, belongs solely to the BiH Parliament. Therefore, the October 2 decisions are not part of the greater electoral reform which remains necessary to address BiH’s international obligations and alleviate discrimination in the electoral process. The High Representative has repeatedly called upon the BiH Parliament to address this issue as a matter of urgency, and proposes to the newly-elected Parliament to go for a fast decision on Sejdić-Finci and other rulings.
