Republic of Srpska (in Bosnia and Herzegovina) and Serbia will continue to act together and give a single response to all challenges, Chairman of Bosnian Presidency and Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik said on Thursday following a meeting with the President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic, BETA news agency reported.

According to SRNA news agency, the two leaders met to discuss the strategic issues related to the survival of the Serb people. The meeting was held without prior notice.

“Any attempts to humiliate Serbia, its state and national interests are unacceptable today. Republic of Srpska and the Serbs, in general, care a lot about Serbia being respected and affirmed in terms of its interests,” Dodik told reporters after meeting the President Vucic in Belgrade. He also commented on the issue of Kosovo and Metohija.

“We are all Serbs and although many foreigners don’t understand that, we are equally interested in the issues such as Kosovo, just like all people living here,” Dodik said, adding that attempts to accelerate reaching of a solution to the Kosovo issue come from those “who would like to create solutions that are not in line with the stances and interests of Serbia.”
