Zlatan Klokić, the Minister of European Integration and International Cooperation of the Republic of Srpska, said that he had been living for years in an environment populated by various nations and that they did not see the threats observed by those hundreds of kilometers away making assessments from their own countries as to whether security in BiH was threatened.
Responding to the analysis of BiH security situation published by the German journalist Adelheid Wölfl for Standard, Klokić stated that we regularly received scenarios worthy of science fiction films and pointing out non-existent threats, and if we asked for help, we would not receive it.
Klokić said that he lived in an environment called Little Europe, where Ukrainians, Italians, Czechs, Poles, Roma, Montenegrins, Russians, Rusyns, Slovenians, Romanians, Macedonians, Hungarians, Germans, Bosniaks, Serbs, Croats and a French person had been living for years.
‘My friends are priest Milan Bezer, with whom I play basketball regularly, Ukrainian Church parish priest, Orel Zakaljuk, with whom I play belote, chief imam of the Majlis of the Prnjavor Islamic Community, Fikret Čelenka, with whom I drink coffee and talk about everything good and bad in the society’, Klokić wrote.
Wölfl analyzed the security situation for the German edition of Standard in an article entitled Dodik continues to raise tensions in Bosnia, and offered some information unknown to the public in BiH.
A particularly interesting section is the one about the visit by NATO’s Assistant Secretary General, Thomas Goffus, who, allegedly, was shocked by the security situation in BiH, and said that he had not thought the situation so serious and called for an immediate increase in the number of EUFOR soldiers by at least a thousand.
