Milorad Dodik’s arrival in Moscow was reported by media close to the RS authorities, and while there he stated that Nazism was defeated by the Russians and the Serbs.
He said that the Russian people and the Soviet Union, together with Serbia and the Serbs, made an undeniable contribution to the victory over fascism and have remained united in defending that truth, regardless of the revisions that are being pushed.
He also announced numerous meetings during his stay in Moscow, including one with the Moscow Patriarch Kirill.
Dodik traveled to Russia via Belgrade, where he stayed yesterday and met with newly appointed Serbian Prime Minister Đuro Macut. Nenad Stevandić, President of the National Assembly of RS—who, like Dodik, is the subject of an arrest warrant and detention order issued by the Court of BiH back in March—had already arrived in Moscow earlier.
The same decision was made for the entity’s Prime Minister, Radovan Višković, after all three refused to respond to a summons from the BiH Prosecutor’s Office for questioning as part of an investigation into suspected attacks on the constitutional order of BiH.
Unlike Višković, Dodik and Stevandić have continued to travel abroad, and it has never been clarified how they managed to cross the border without being identified or detained by border police.
The only attempt to detain Dodik occurred on April 23 in East Sarajevo, but officers from the RS Ministry of Interior prevented agents of the State Investigation and Protection Agency (SIPA) from carrying it out.
