The Vice President of the Republika Srpska (RS) from the Croat people, Davor Pranjić (HDZ BiH), signed a decree promulgating the Law on Amendments to the Law on Police and Internal Affairs, thus making it official that Milorad Dodik transferred powers to him.
The Central Election Commission of Bosnia and Herzegovina (CIK BiH) stripped Dodik of his mandate as President of the Republika Srpska based on a final verdict of the Court of BiH.
The decree on the proclamation with the full text of the law was published in today's Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia.
Although Dodik and the ruling coalition rejected the CEC's decision to strip him of his presidential mandate and to call early elections for the president of the RS on November 23, the fact that Vice President Pranjić signed the decree promulgating the law means that Milorad Dodik has acknowledged both the verdict of the Court of BiH and the CEC's decision that he is no longer the president of the RS.
The ruling majority in the National Assembly of the Republic of Srpska has reached conclusions that do not recognize the verdict of the Court of BiH, which sentenced Dodik to one year in prison and a six-year ban on holding public office for failing to implement the decisions of the High Representative in BiH.
