Republika Srpska

After the International Monitoring Operation, which oversaw Bosnia's 2013 census, issued its final seal of approval on Wednesday, the Institute for Statistics in Bosnia's Serbian entity, Republika Srpska, has continued to insist it will not accept the results.

Bosnia's House of Representatives adopted an official statement about the recent attack on a police station in the eastern town of Zvornik after almost a day of ethnically-charged debates.

On Thursday evening, MPs adopted a conclusion condemning the attack on Zvornik police station as a terrorist act.

The President of Bosnia's Serb-dominated entity, Milorad Dodik, said his entity may withdraw from Bosnia's state-level security apparatus following an attack on a police station in the east of the country.
 
"Republika Srpska was shot at and we have right to defend ourselves, and we will defend ourselves," Dodik said.

Leaders of the Bosnian Serb ruling and opposition parties exchanged harsh words over the weekend as the political struggle moved from negotiations about the formation of new governments to the next highly-disputed issue - a new mechanism for the coordination of EU projects.
