On the 30th anniversary of the Dayton Agreement, I write in @thehill about why the U.S. must reengage in Bosnia by backing allies, sanctioning those who undermine U.S. interests, boosting defense ties, and supporting key ECHR rulings. Read here: https://t.co/BGb0yRpfS3

I counted eight cuts in a 1:13 video about her day. If someone needs that many edits to explain their own personal daily experiences, no one should be losing sleep over their supposedly “outsized influence.”
Danas sam u Pododboru za Europu Odbora za vanjske poslove Zastupničkog doma američkog Kongresa nazočila iznimno zanimljivom saslušanju na temu „A Path Toward Stability in the Western Balkans”. Na saslušanju su sudjelovali @MaxPrimorac , viši znanstveni suradnik, @Heritage ; Luke

A timely, personal intervention by my friend @IsmailCidic for @thehill on the continued need for a values-based US policy towards BiH, the only approach that truly reflects both America’s strategic interests, and those of BiH’s citizens.

Amidst ongoing systemic campaign of meddling in BiH’s internal affairs, I'm bringing up our article in @ForeignPolicy written with @IsmailCidic on Croatia’s “continuation of the Tudjman-Milosevic wartime project” to partition BiH; only today by political rather than military

Croatia’s increasingly aggressive posture, couched as concern for Bosnian Croats, is in reality a strategic campaign that advances ethnic partition under the cover of legitimacy, @IFCBiH and @IsmailCidic argue.

An excellent primer by @IsmailCidic & @IFCBiH on how Croatia’s systemic campaign of meddling in BiH’s internal affairs is a “continuation of the Tudjman-Milosevic wartime project” to partition the BiH; only today by political rather than military means. https://t.co/TDQP0WApnR

In our latest piece for @ForeignPolicy, @IFCBiH and I warn of Croatia's quiet war threatening Bosnia's democratic future and U.S. interests in the region. https://t.co/UOVuTsV2Cc

We will never forget the victims of the genocide. We will never forgive the Serb perpetrators. And we will never get tired of keeping the truth alive.
July is not an ordinary month. It is a wound in time, a scar that refuses to fade. For those who survived Srebrenica, for grieving mothers, for families still searching for their loved ones, each year brings the same unbearable weight, the same haunting question:

Thirty years after the Bosnian genocide, truth and justice still demand principled U.S. leadership. Our new report, “Preserving Truth, Guiding Policy,” calls for a return to clear policies that support Bosnia’s future and protect vital U.S. interests. https://t.co/b7PUuHcoXp

Over 500,000 Croatians (1 in 7) attended a concert by Thompson, a singer best known for glorifying Croatia’s WWII Nazi regime. As if that’s not enough, he also praised a terrorist who killed an NYPD officer. 500,000! One in seven!
During tonight’s huge concert in Zagreb, fascist crooner Thompson wore a shirt honoring terrorist Zvonko Bušić, the chief architect of the hijacking of TWA 355 in 1976, which resulted in the death of NYPD officer Brian Murray. And this is who @AndrejPlenkovic pals around with.

No matter how many times you repeat it, this lie will never become the truth. Croatia is not a "guarantor" of the Dayton Peace Agreement. It is a signatory as a warring party following the war of aggression against Bosnia and the numerous war crimes it supported.
I am participating in the spring session of the @NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Dayton - a city that became a symbol of peace. As a signatory and guarantor of the Dayton Agreement, Croatia is making political, economic and diplomatic efforts to support the stability and

A clear, direct, and unequivocal condemnation not only of Milorad Dodik but also of Russia and Serbia.
Today, the bipartisan leadership of the US Helsinki Commission issued a statement responding to Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik's destabilizing and secessionist actions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Read the full statement here: https://t.co/W9Tc7EqkEr

Germany and Austria have just imposed sanctions on Dodik, Stevandic, and Viskovic. Other countries should follow, and BiH institutions must finally act and arrest them. No excuses!

Every aspect of the contract between Republika Srpska (Dodik) and Blagojevich directly undermines both Bosnian and American interests. Good to see the U.S. media bringing attention to this concerning development. https://t.co/niucdp32Mm

Bosnian media report that Dodik is in Russia and is set to meet with Putin on Tuesday. Bosnian authorities must immediately act upon his return, and @INTERPOL_HQ must swiftly confirm the int. arrest warrant. This is long overdue.

Important that both Türkiye and the U.S. clearly support Bosnia and remain fully aligned on its vital role in the Balkans.

As Dodik persists with his separatist moves, @RepAuchincloss and @RepMikeTurner add their voices to Congress’s strong support for Bosnia. Bosnia’s institutions must act asap—secessionists can’t go unpunished! https://t.co/gLJQFQrJ56
