Milorad Dodik

Joe Biden's election is generating anxiety in Moscow that Russia's global ambitions will be more directly challenged. While President Trump focused on withdrawing American forces from Europe and avoiding embroilment in any new conflicts, the Kremlin fears that President Biden will reengage in disputed regions in pursuit of Western integration.

"Milorad Dodik is in Banja Luka. Yesterday, we sent a team of our doctors, headed by the CEO of the Infectious Diseases clinic in Belgrade Dr Goran Stevanovic. We are monitoring at all times," said Vui.

As it was stated, a council of doctors met at the UCC RS and reviewed Dodik's health condition.
It has been noticed that he has difficulty breathing and pain in the area of the abdomen.
Pneumonia of both lungs was diagnosed, and the third test for coronavirus was positive, RTRS reports.

A three-centuries-old gilded icon, presented to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov by Milorad Dodik, Chairman of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, will be returned amid a row over its origins, the Russian Foreign Ministry told the Russian media.

Ukraine's embassy in Sarajevo has asked Bosnia's Foreign Ministry for detailded information about an icon that it says is part of Ukrainian heritage, which the Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik on Monday presented to Russia's Foreign Minister.

According to Klix.ba, first the Croatian member of the Presidency, Zeljko Komsic, refused to meet with the Russian chief of diplomacy, and then the same was announced by the Bosnian member of the Presidency, Sefik Dzaferovic.

He said that Serbia will not close the border for the people from Republika Srpska in any way, regardless of the epidemiological situation in Serbia and RS, as he firmly believes that relations with Bosnia-Herzegovina must improve, so Serbia will continue to help the Serbian people in RS and demands an end to threats of abolition and disappearance of Republika Srpska.

Sonja Karadzic-Jovicevic told media in Banja Luka on Thursday that she hopes that the removal of a plaque honouring her father Radovan Karadzic from a student dormitory in the town of Pale "will put an end to the misuse of his name".

Karadzic-Jovicevic said it was "unbelievable that the attention the plaque is getting now is bigger than it was when it was first installed".

Ljubljana – President Borut Pahor has informed leaders of the Brdo-Brijuni Process that the summit marking the 10th anniversary of this initiative for the Western Balkans, which was to be held next Monday in Slovenia, has been cancelled due to the current epidemiological situation.
