Minić said that the new Republika Srpska Government will not include five ministers from the current composition: "No one is being punished..."

The Prime Minister-designate for the new Government of Republika Srpska, Savo Minić, stated today in Banja Luka that his new cabinet will not include five ministers from the current composition of the entity government.

Minić, a member of the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats (SNSD), stated that the new Minister of Labor and Veterans' and Disability Protection will be Radan Ostojić, president of the Veterans' Organization of RS, who will replace Danijel Ergić in that position.

Draga Mastilović, former dean of the Faculty of Philosophy in East Sarajevo, will replace Siniša Karan as Minister of Scientific and Technological Development and Higher Education.

The current Minister of Economy and Entrepreneurship, Vojin Mitrović, will be replaced by Radenko Bubić, a businessman from Kotor Varoš.

The Ministry of Family, Youth and Sports will be taken over by Irena Ignjatović, a teacher from Doboj, instead of Selma Čabrić, while entrepreneur Ned Puhovac will replace Denis Šulić at the head of the Ministry of Trade and Tourism.

"The government's reconstruction does not punish anyone, but rather brings in new energy. On the other hand, almost half of the government is being changed, so we would certainly end up in a situation where we have to elect a new government," said Minić at a press conference.

The National Assembly of Republika Srpska (NARS) will hold two special sessions tomorrow - the first to vote on the resignation of current Prime Minister Savo Minic and the second to vote on the election of a new entity government, which will once again be headed by Savo Minic.

The decision to hold two special sessions tomorrow was made yesterday by the Collegium of the RS National Assembly, with the votes of members of the ruling coalition in the RS.
