Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is likely to use his visit to Sarajevo this week to try to influence September’s elections for the leadership of the SDA party, which is close to Turkey.
[Erdogan] would try to use his popularity and influence among Bosniaks to shape the outcome of the internal SDA vote, experts said.
On Monday, Erdogan will meet members of Bosnia’s tripartite state presidency and the current leader of the SDA, Bakir Izetbegovic, who has close ties to the Turkish leader.
