The President of the RS, Milorad Dodik, in an interview with the Croatian newspaper "Nacional", once again threatened to secede the Republika Srpska from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
"As soon as the RS declares independence, 15 countries will recognize us, and Croatia will wait and then recognize us," said Dodik, explaining that "they will not seek the opinion of Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković or President Zoran Milanović for secession, but that Croatia will accept new reality and that it would be best for Croatia to form Herceg-Bosnia."
