News Summary

SRS press conference

The SRS held a press conference in Banja Luka on Thursday, when party General Secretary Ognjen Tadic stated that the SRS supports the organization established by Banja Luka citizens for obstructing the inhumane eviction of refugees during the winter season. “The SRS believes that citizens of the RS cannot allow the realization of any article in the New York Declaration, because the document shatters the statehood of the RS as established by the Dayton Agreement” concluded Tadic.
