BANJA LUKA, June 1 (FENA) - A special session of the National Assembly of the entity of Republika Srpska (RSNA), planned in order take up a position on the BiH Parliament’s Resolution on respect for the victims of the fascist regime and movements, is being held today in Banja Luka.
The resolution was adopted at the 8th session of the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and members of the ruling majority in the RS are asking the entity parliament to reject the document as unacceptable.
In the explanation of the request for convening a special session, they state that "the very name of the Resolution is unacceptable because it qualifies fascist regimes and movements as aggressors, and not the Independent State of Croatia, which officially carried out systematic expulsion, religious conversions and killing of Serbs."
“In this way, the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of BiH, with the votes of the PDP and the SDS, took on a shameful rewriting of history and the marginalization of the suffering of Serbs in the Second World War. We ask that the National Assembly of the RS, at a special session, take a position on this very important issue for the RS and the Serb people as a whole,” it is stated in the request, which was signed by MPs from SNSD, DNS, DEMOS, SPS, Ujedinjena Srpska, NDP, the Socialist Party and two independent deputies.
The SDS pointed out that the session of the RS parliament is unnecessary and that it only serves the ruling party to divert attention from other important and current topics.
