The President of the Municipal Committee of the Bosniak Party in Petnjica, Adnan Muhović, said that the agreement regarding the coalition in this municipality has not yet been reached or signed, but that does not mean that it could not happen today or tomorrow.

He said that the Bosniak Party is still negotiating with all possible partners, but that the cards are most open in the direction of talks with the Democratic Party of Socialists.

"Until this moment, an agreement has not been reached with any party. I guess I would know that as the president of the party and the person who should sign the agreement on the future coalition", said Muhović for "Vijesti nedjeljom".

He reminded that this party first started talks with the Democratic Party of Socialists.

"It is true that we first started talks with the Democratic Party of Socialists. It is also true that we are the closest to that possible coalition. However, the negotiations are not yet finished at this moment, which does not mean that we may not end them and initial them tomorrow or the day after tomorrow," he added. Muhovic.

The President of the Municipal Board, BS Petnjica, said on election night, immediately after the publication of the preliminary results, that he was satisfied that his party would be the winner and "send one of the two big parties, DPS or SDP, to the opposition".

The Democratic Party of Socialists won the local elections in Petnjica, but it did not win an absolute majority and cannot form a government on its own. Out of 31 council seats, this party won 15.

Behind it in terms of strength is the Social Democratic Party with 11 councilor seats won. The Bosniak Party will have four councilors in the future parliament, while the Socialist People's Party fought for one seat in the future local parliament.

The Bosniak party could form the government in a coalition with SDP and SNP, but this is unlikely. And the president of this party, Rafet Husović, said on Friday that the Democratic Party of Socialists is closest to his party at the state level, that is, that "BS and DPS are natural coalition partners".

The presidents of the DPS and BS municipal committees, Samir Agović and Adnan Muhović, were seen on election night, right after the announcement of the results, shaking hands and congratulating each other on the street.
