SDA: Čović is not a proponent, rather a gravedigger of European values

FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, February 7 (FENA) - The Party of Democratic Action (SDA) strongly condemns the statements of the HDZ BiH President Dragan Čović, equaling the civic state with an Islamic state.

“Such statements are very dangerous and stem from the Greater Serbian and Greater Croatian ideologies. Their goal is to put on all the Bosniak people and all BiH patriots a stigma of Islamic radicalism and thus present them in a negative light in the Western world,” said the SDA.

Bosnia and Herzegovina as a country and all its patriots have experienced on their own skin the true meaning of this politics through the aggression, mass crimes and genocide carried out by the proponents of the aforementioned ideologies, as evidenced by numerous judgments of international courts.

“Bosniaks, as a European nation, will never give up its civilization achievements that are inherently part of their heritage, their traditions and their faith. It is precisely these values ​​that made the Bosniak people tolerant as they are. Even when they were barbarically killed, even when they suffered genocide, the Bosniaks did not reach for revenge or extremism, but persisted on their civilizational values, on truth and in justice.

Instead of ungrounded accusations against Bosniaks, it would be better for Čović to look in his own backyard where numerous anti-civilization ideologies are flourishing and to ask himself what he can do to fight these retrograde phenomena,” it is said in the statement of the SDA.

The SDA also stressed that BiH can only be built as a state of its citizens. All civilized countries are built on these foundations. Certainly, along with this principle, its multiethnic character should be respected, and this is already regulated by the BiH Constitution.

- To advocate BiH as an exclusively ethnic state means advocating for its division and undermining its European future. To advocate for such BiH seen and imagined by Dragan Čović and HDZ BiH does not mean the struggle for the equality of the people, but the struggle for the domination of one political party over all others. We urge Dragan Čović to understand this as soon as possible, because otherwise he will remain remembered not as a proponent, but as a gravedigger of European values ​​- said the SDA.
