Kalinic pointed out that this reminds him of a time 30 years ago when Serbs uniquely, regardless of their different party affiliation, made the historic decision to establish Republika Srpska.
"This was, among other things, our democratic and courageous response to the overriding and contesting of the equality of the Serb people in what was then Bosnia-Herzegovina, and I believe that unity will be shown in the Serbian Parliament tomorrow," Kalinic said.
Kalinic said that today's special session is the first legal and legitimate response before any other move, including a referendum, to endangering the integrity of Republika Srpska, following a controversial decision by the BiH Constitutional Court on agricultural land.
"I have no doubt that the session will show the unity of the members of the government and the opposition and will leave no room for anyone who challenges our sovereign right to freedom and equality in Bosnia-Herzegovina," Kalinic said, Sputnik reported.
He stressed that Sarajevo, and especially parts of the international community, after so many years, should honestly wonder why both Serbs and Croats are so dissatisfied in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and why this country is not comfortable enough for these two constituent peoples.
Kalinic noted that the time of "stick and carrot" principle had passed, and that the Republika Srpska's right to property should be challenged in the Strasbourg Court.
"Until everyone's sincere will for structural changes in some institutions, first and foremost in the Constitutional Court of Bosnia-Herzegovina is not recognized, and until the return to the original Dayton Agreement becomes the only path of Bosnia-Herzegovina into a certain future, there is nothing left but for Republika Srpska to use all political, legal and democratic means in defense of its integrity”, Kalinic said.
He said that the current "policy of active passivity" of Serb representatives in the common institutions of Bosnia-Herzegovina is not an obstruction or some kind of inconsistent boycott of Bosnia-Herzegovina, but the only rational response to the political blindness of the international community and the Bosniak factor, and it will continue to be so until further notice.
Seems like a very stupid arse.

Watch out! Not stupid at all: is perfect in Russian.
Better to say: both Tom and Arben are perfect in Russian!
No joking, it's 100% true. Here is the proof:
There is no hint in any other language.
Why did Tom not explain to Arben what is there?
The lady talks fast, than explodes in laugh.
Than there are some voices from the background.
For the outsiders the topic itself is not easy to understand.
What did happen afterwards was less, than glorious.
This entire Tom - Arben conversation should be an eye-opener.
(if not his "little" mistakes about Sken 1444 and being unable to tell, there is no booze in Vushtrri)

I see this as another chance for NATO to engage in target practice. Putin is so bogged down in the many other Banana Republics, he has neither the will nor the finances to respond.

Where do you get this from? your arse?

The days of the carrot and stick are well over. The problem is that Izetbegovic et al never changed their tactics and continued the same for years now.
With the arrival of Dodik the broom has swept away all quislings out of the Serbian corner to the point that even printed media close to Izetbegovic published articles which state that the Bosniaks have lost control of Bosnia.
Like Djukanovic, Izetbegovic made a similar tactical mistake in thinking that the Serbs will have to take whatever this fake Court dishes out.
Izetbegovic completely misread this new situation like he misunderstood the restructuring of the government in Bosnia. It took 12 months for it to take place because the Bosniaks wanted the old guard to stay such as Mektic.
The foreign ambassadors asked what the Serbs wanted then a deal was done. Yes, cooperation with NATO like Serbia but no membership. Then to cover the humiliation Izetbegovic and Komsic went around hinting the plan they all signed was the ANP, but Stoltenburg and Admiral Fogo said it was not.
This new Court ruling is the worst error Izetbegovic has made. If the judiciary is not changed then RS will go to a referendum and good bye Bosnia and NO ONE will be able to stop it. I will even go on a limb and say this has the green light from Moscow.
Personally, it would be better for Izetbegovic to encourage RS to leave Bosnia because once the judiciary is changed the Serbs will run the show and make his life hell.
