Former High Rep Lajčák meets with Dodik – N1

Former High Representative Miroslav Lajčák, who is now EU Special Representative for the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue, met Friday with BiH Presidency Chairman Milorad Dodik at the Delphi Economic Forum in Athens and said he told him that BiH has an EU perspective as a “single, united and sovereign” country.

Dodik said at the forum that “Republika Srpska is trying to defend its status and autonomy” and denied that the semi-autonomous entity is working towards seceding from the country. RS only wants the initial Dayton Agreement to be implemented, he said.
