its hope the vote would bridge deep ethnic divides in this, balkan country but when it still varying the scars of civil war in the 1990s is change possible. what role can outside power play this is inside story. ah hello and welcome to the program and hasn't seen a preliminary results from elections in bosnia herzegovina on sunday. sho, reformists and moderates winning the cro at and bosnian presidential seats. but overall the outcome is unlikely to bring much change nor movement beyond entrenched divisions in the country. the boat was held to elect 3 members of the shared presidency, plus national and regional parliament. the serb seat remains unclear with both candidates claiming victory. the campaign was dominated by nationalists and

separatist rhetoric and is seen as the most important vote since the end of the war in 1095. i said, beg, has more for us from san diego bosnia and herzegovina has spoken. 2 of the 3 seats. the presidential election have gone to reformist muddrick candidates. separate. it said joke as a van which has won the presidential seat for republic. us epsco. both bosnia can craft when it's cold for unity and the need to move forward. you won't be nasty. the lives of our people in this country other most important. and that's why i call on all people to unite. so that the citizens of bosnia and herzegovina will be better off regina, my boss, they have several negligent congratulations to citizens of bosnia. i mean, for this victory of my party and myself. now we can really talk about big changes in bosnia coming. but the evening was overshadowed by hi representative for bosnia christian schmidt as pulled closed. he announced who would be making changes to the

constitution electoral law and to the size of the lower parliament. with today's decisions. no political party or anybody elected will be hell able to hold the federation hostage and him on the field was if a craft separate, his candidate was elected to the quite seat, then it would increase tensions. it would have given 2 thirds of the presidency control over specific state institutions. separately, the miller at dick declared victory for the presidency of the republic. a said sca entity is a woodridge us. i am proud that i was the candidate and now confirmed president of republic obscure. and i will do everything so that republic of soap scar continues to be stable to conduct its and policy to cooperate with are important partners like serbia, russia, and hungry voter turnout was that 50 percent? the lowest country has seen since after the war that ended in 1995, also some obo,

so those will fall my voted. that's my duty. but there is no change for the people . it is just a rotation. yasser, not on that every change is good if good people are leading. who are you? no matter if they are red, yellow, white, or blue, if it is good for the country and change would take a great deal of effort from all political parties. politicians in the federation of bosnia and herzegovina, fate, the same challenges as before, the election. they still have to contend with 2 separatists presidents. and although it may be a consolation to some that the set which is correct, wasn't elected constitutional. and electoral law changes also being imposed on them by the hi representative. someone didn't vote. i said vague inside story. very able about the elections are among the most complicated in the world, set up to maintain peace following the breakup of yugoslavia in 1992 and the civil war followed at state level. it has a 3 way presidency with each member elected to represent one of 3 ethnic groups. it

split between eastern orthodox serbs, catholic, crow at and muslim boston, the ex representatives can block legislation passed by the law house if they feel it is against the interests of the group. that's a part of the system often blamed for a lack of progress in the country. one body also overseas. the political factions, the office of the high representative, is an international initiative put in place in 995 to ease ethnic divides. the critic say it takes power away from the people while supporters credited with keeping the country together. the. let's bring in, i guess now to talk more about this in the bosnian capital, sadie able hickman cottage and academic and also in berlin. we have bota labor senior associate at democratization policy council. and joining us from mostar in

bosnia, i'm not popovich a political activists and member of the women waging piece network good to have you with us. so, hickman cartridge, let me start by asking you, what do the results of these elections represent to you? well firstly to say that, but it is a, it is really good that the moderate and reformist a forces have one in the presidency. that isn't the case in the, in the, in the parliament were at nationalists parties, one or a majority of the world. but in the presidency, what was very important is that these forces one, especially in the, in the, in the bosh, nacken, in their cracked members of the presidency. however, what is troubling is that the serb member of the presidency, danielle cassiano, which belongs to a pro russian serb, separate his party. so what is troubling for me personally, is that the bosnian

e u and need to pack could be endangered. or when, when having a person such as this, in the presidency, in other areas of the, of the federation and entity level and, and in the canton on level we have seen a lot of changes in the sense that some smaller parties have, have been some majority of the, of the woods. i saw a lot of got a lot of things made me slaten changed i in, in the sense of internal boss in baltics. but when talking about the state representation and so on, it is good that, that pro bossing forces are still a majority in the presidency. motor labor, what, what do you take the knees results? how well i would go a tro, attention to be a little bit away from the resorts just to know which i think on context important that the political and electro system in boston the as the sign in date land remain

more or less unchanged since the end of the war is not the competitive western democracy. it's a system based on the lines of 3 ethnic oligarchy used. and it has such breaks that partial ships happening from election collection, moving some percentage over to multi ethnic parties, not and cannot lead to a change. so i think in that sense, we have not seen the major changes in the election. the one thing that mister conscience mentioned isn't part and the current geopolitical ukraine war context is that the nationalist pro russian forces starting where the of the, the sort of member of the main sort party from the republican service and across allies will not have a majority in the 3 member, a president to that sense, the foreign policy. but apart from that really,

i would not always trust or assault the main event to my from my point of view. and these election has happened one hour after closing the ballot boxes closing the voting and in bosnia on sunday. and that was the imposition by the high representative of their german christians. made a very dangerous press event in possession of changes to the electro system. one hour after one just bows a by the time incomplete and democratic and by the ration now and the content of this amendments to the electoral and constitutional system of the country is really dangerously going into the wrong direction. yeah, you're talking here about the, the invoice, christian schmidt and they did the changes they, he impose what he said were measures for improving the functionality of, of government in bosnia. and we can talk more about that in a moment, but i want to get, i'm gonna put watches the take on the results and what you, what you draw from this is this is a victory for the states,

a status quo. was there more to as michael is before said, it's mall inside of what is more days of school. nothing will change. same far as from ninety's even from $9061.00 the elections, they still continue to to be an election. and then they are the biggest scholarship, the 1st support each other and they will continue to work inside of the country. the thing the mind, see some of the improvements in the foreign policy tanks to the store of civilian nationalistic members of the presidency. yes, the be able to still have this one ration and nationalistic member of the, of the presidency. but i think that she will not be able to do such a mall or such

a lot of car as her. so i expect that much more moments from enough from east over there. so from russia and 30 heads of the people should be turned or, or country should be turned now to brussels and e. oh, and this is what i expect to see in the next 4 years. the speeds that, that are social democrats and then the to that which had as announcement of his victory was very good. it was very healing for everybody wholly of here in savannah and loved in this country. and there are still gods and was this country in the one still have to continue their life here. so there is a glimpse of hope, not no such a vague but still more glimpse of hope for, for the people in this country. seeing this members of the presidency everyday life

will not be such a different. but we can see the, the see our side, what's a good time improvement? this is what the expect to see here. well, let's talk more then about this decision by the hi represented christian schmidt to make changes to, to the the way that the country is governed. and in a way that 11 side cannot act as a, as a veto block on the other. and the point was made by a corresponding there in the report to be changes a be made by someone who has not elected by bosnians. is that, is that a problem for you met cartridge? well, it is in one way. but what is more shocking is that in this way, no voltage, especially from the crucial side, will be deeply cemented in the future. so that means that in for your time we will

. busy know directly which party will wound the the election so that, that is the credit separate as hard as a party. so that is a problem here. instead of going forward the higher present that has decided to even more deep and said meant the already existing political, ethnic divide and to have some sort of f, the sized politics instead of making much more democrats much more utopian. so instead of having europe values brought into the elections, we're having a much more higher bureaucracy right now. so the, the, the house of peoples, for example, will be able to, to, we will be double the size of this now. so we'll have more politicians in power and which means more, more public funds being wasted on that. and secondly, we will be able to, to do the blockades from certain and political decisions or, you know, in, in to be very frank, it will just harden the life of, of boston's, in the future, a boat of

a. but just to pick up on what you said earlier about the role of the high representative christian schmidt in all of this. and it's on democratic nature. if you will know of those who, who will, will not disagree with you on that point in that this is supposed to be a democracy. and this is, this is a floor in that system. but is it a necessary floor in the sense that it ensures the did the deep divisions in the country don't, don't spill over that. there is that kind of level level playing field, that remains what, what do you say to that see, i think the problem here is that, and this is part of the problem where there is a wrong way of intervening by the high representative is that this gives i mean, the issue tractors in the west end in the southern where the russia, when says that the institution of the high representative should be gone. this is

not, this is not the course and not the solution. the problem here is the following. the west intervened into their bows. invoice stopped by a dirty agreement with the domestic warring factions by installing a date in constitutional and electro system that is based on ethnic power sharing. this is not democratic, but this was meant to be a provisional, you know, government and constitutional arrangement, to ent, of, or to be later replaced by a, by a, by a democratic functional political system. the problem was that thing to the west for over 3 quarters of a decade after the war has partly reformed and changed that system until december, 2005. but then in the content of the war, they were trying to run away from their responsibility and they were trying to leave the country unsustainable. and it's controversial order that is to the local leads and that has not functioning to thrown back the country into the original

modes of mutual lifting of ethnic tension as a basic for patronage system of mutually reinforcing the ethnic oligarchy system. and instead of correcting its course, the waste for the last 17 years have been trying to, you know, not see is a responsibility happens the size of public policy. but keep a face, the assemblage of a fake stability in bosnia by permanently appeasing nationalist leads and their agendas. this policy has escalated over the last 2 years with you and low level and us officials wiping out previous red lines when it comes to the defense of democratic principles and in bosnia. and they have started to go shade on the terms of the because cross nationalist party, the h, the said on the so called the reform of the electoral system. now that the negotiations didn't lead to a result because the other side is particularly the boss next. so what it is giving

internationalist agenda that would lead to formalizing the deepening of the ethnic and ethel churchill divisions and both that would ultimately lead to a break of the country. but as a result of these phase negotiations by having propped up and encouraged the crow nationalists side, we have entered in the election where the crow nationalist party threatened with a political crisis off the elections. preventing implementation of election results in their political agenda is not partly meant by the west and mr. schmidt. unfortunately bullied by the us administration, which is a really continuing more a trump paula administration policy than the bible restoration policy when it comes to democratic while it was, has pushed mr. schmidt to partly given to make some decisions that take away the tools for the aged is that to do. blockage of implementation of election is all that means to prevent a crisis in return for promptly giving into their nationalist amounts. and it has

done so. yes. tried to do it in the midst of the election campaign, which would have meant by changing the rules of the game within the campaign, which is deeply under mckorick, he is now done. the worst of both worlds here, standing, even after the citizens of bosnia an hour after they have finished putting their boats. which means this is both under my credit and it's not leading to more than that. i think it's leading to more ethnic oligarchy system that we're really at the country more efficient. let's get, let's get em. popovich popovich is the take on this and the role of christian schmidt here is, is it fun to mentally on democratic a way of just kind of paper over the cracks and appeasing to many people, particularly the nationalist groups. as a boat, a vapor says, ah, it is, but unfortunately his of ours are recent in some pieces agreements. so there is nothing we can do it at the moment the people was

tied to the majority of them like to have some office like today, not now it's mr. smith before he was the other person. so i actually like to have off the office of the height of the sensitive, simply because nationalistic part is, would destroy this country much faster without it. nationalistic parties are those parties, while it all in parties for last 30 years, are the same ones who participated and one 1st, multi, multi parsi elections, all during the all like when, when it was approved, please independence. so they have on again in 96 from 96, they are winning elections. so you cannot expect from the same people who are very politically active, active before the war. well,

they are active during the war who are active during the signing of the so the demons of some of them. they're involved in internet ocean. and now they are all in this country. so how we can expect them to make any change. they don't want to do any change, they want to keep school as long as possible. so then the reason why they need office of the hard to present that to bring in some changes, some changes the like some changes the don't. there are a lot of law, there was no, we know perfectly written, but not i'm not implemented. so for the, for the mr. smith decision about changing the election law and partially changing the constitution of the ration of what's going on. let's see. always work in the ally. let's give it the chest and see how it is that will now block or to gain more in the,

in the new system. now then when he pulled out some, some wheels wheels from, from their cars. so let's see how it will work. i personally don't like to see haven't turnage over the was there sabina, that means that we are not democratic and to be on not democratic country the just things like that we have election, but we are not sure that the numbers that are published after the elections are the numbers that the people voted the, you know, now there is a question and then there really male or the one the election or his election machine one the election or so there is, there is a big discussion. know who really want elections is a full and a for me is still the question why he didn't didn't

so on for the 2nd. a 2nd mandate as a member of the presidency because his colleague giana, she was perfectly all. so the question, there is a big question of why he's decided to run just for the member of the president of the report of the country. let's, let's broaden this out a little bit more and talk more about what this means for foreign policy. hickman, i know we kind of touched on this a little bit earlier. but what, what do you think these elections mean for bosnia is foreign policy and the various factions within the country. you mentioned about pro russian sessions and pro pro western factions. well, i mean that the most troubling part for me is that a 2 country supported radix and sir nationalists separate this movement,

and that there is a victor or button from hungary an in vladimir, put in for marcia. so distill, so a lot, i mean, if these are 2 people with whom dick met our 30 days before the election. so several weeks before the elections, that is very, very troubling news. because you know, we have one country which is anti, it was a member of the e, which is entirely in the far right. sphere. i did hungary in victor or bounce a political movement on the other, sorry of a country which is currently involved. busy in an act of aggression war crimes and it is russia. so we are right now entering a new phase in which probably murder that will start doing what he has been promising, or his is voters for long time. and that is who were done with the support of serbia to, to try and to are now proclaim independence for the boss in serve and to deep for apopka, subscribe and to and to succeed in the near future. and also what is what is important to notice is that the election law which was imposed by kristen smith was something

which was heavily lobbied by crecia proper. so for the last couple of years, crecia ins and zagreb has been lobbying different countries, mostly in the united states and in the west to support an election law which would cements of their power sharing a atmosphere in bosnia. and unfortunately, this has happened like a 2 nights, 2 nights earlier, which means that our boss here will, in the future be controlled not only by its neighbors, by a crucial man, when bad belgrade, but also deeply influenced by russia, hungary, and in other countries as well all right, so we're gonna have to leave it there. thanks very much to all 3 of you. hick met, coach boat of a bar and am not popovich. thanks very much being on inside story and thank you as well for watching. remember, you can see this program again any time just go to our website,
