Bosnian Serbs Prepare Biggest 'Statehood Day' Celebration

Ignoring objections from Bosniak political leaders and international officials, Bosnia's Serbs prepared the biggest-ever celebration of their disputed January 9 'statehood' holiday, underlining the continuing divisions in the country.

Decorations have been in place for weeks, overshadowing those installed for New Year's Eve, with thousands of flags flying throughout Banja Luka.
