The Republika Srpska (Serb Republic; RS; Serbian mini-state in the Bosnian Federation) has refused to follow its obligations to continue to cede certain authorities to the central government of the Bosnia and Herzegovina as part of the continued integration of the country, and this week things have come to a head.
The High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina (the Dayton Peace Accord -chartered arbiter for issues within the country as a whole) has by need intervened and annulled a set of RS parliamentary decisions that they refused to revoke themselves. The deadline for them to act was June 11th.
Maybe this time he got their attention, which would be good as without progress on unification, we may find ourselves right back where we were before December 14, 1995.
