At the beginning of his address, Ademović emphasized that this session, or rather the stance of SNSD, is a true reflection of Bosnia and Herzegovina's European path.
"Here, one can see Bosnia and Herzegovina's European path and the responsibility toward that European path and its citizens. There is a discrepancy between what is said and what is done. The reason for the absence from this session is the agenda, which included items on two European laws and one law awaited by Moneyval. The working group meeting in Brussels is on May 5. If we fail to submit this adopted law, it is almost certain that Bosnia and Herzegovina will be placed on Moneyval's gray list," Ademović said.
He added that this is part of the pre-election campaign and that he will conduct an analysis of what representatives of the parties blocking the House of Peoples have previously said about the accusations they are leveling against him.
"It is obvious that they are blocking it, and this primarily refers to SNSD, because today we had a quorum in both the Croatian and Bosniak clubs, as we always do. However, only one delegate from the Serbian club is missing, even though the rules of procedure state that delegates have the right and obligation to attend sessions, and if they fail to do so without justification, they must leave their explanation with the chairperson. These are negative tendencies that are persistent," he said.
He also commented on the gathering in Zagreb, where the "third entity" was discussed.
"First, there was preparation by Max Primorac and Željana Zovko, who, in their own way and through their focus groups, promoted certain ideas—the impossibility of coexistence, stigmatizing Bosniaks, claiming that Bosniaks want a unitary state, so that it would then seem logical for these right-wingers to offer such a solution," Ademović said.
He particularly highlighted the fact that the gathering was attended by an advisor to Croatian Minister of Foreign Affairs Gordan Grlić-Radman, as well as Cardinal Vinko Puljić. He described what was said at the gathering as "another blow to the constitutional order of Bosnia and Herzegovina."
"You all know that the previous attempt, through activities from 1992 to 1995, was prosecuted before the International Court in The Hague and was ruled as a joint criminal enterprise. In 2000, we had a similar attempt that the institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina put in its place and prosecuted. Now we have such tendencies again—when will they stop, I truly do not know," Ademović said.
Finally, he added that it was a completely unnecessary performance.
"What is absolutely certain is that the leaders guiding the processes in Bosnia and Herzegovina and leading the country's accession to the European path need to sit down, talk, and not engage in such performances, nor participate in any way in these performances outside Bosnia and Herzegovina, especially not in neighboring countries Serbia and Croatia, which can openly be said to have supported these secessionist intentions in the past, and some continue to do so today," said Kemal Ademović.
