Iz svega što je Schmidt rekao ne odgovarajući konkretno na ijedno novinarsko ili pitanje javnosti već spinujući - doduše ovaj put uz osmjeh a ne bijes (izgleda da je oboje predsstava) on je čuvar Daytona i ne interesuje ga EU budućnost Bosne i Hercegovine. Steže "luđačku košulju"
Is this shaping up to be: The U.N. General Assembly voted on whether to allow Russia to have a vote on whether to make another vote a secret vote? twitter.com/Dpol_un/status…
It’s good that Britain can’t “reject” anything on behalf of UN membership since we are no longer at the time of the British empire. Members of the GA will decide it on Monday and hopefully this new UK snobbish attempt to shut their mouths will prompt them to make a right choice https://t.co/CDgW4Xv0ao

New "Dayton" for Ukraine and Europe would be disaster. twitter.com/OzKaterji/stat…
I don't think people on here are prepared for the overwhelming pressure that is going to be put on Ukraine by powerful voices in the west to stop its offensives at the 24th February lines, the same voices that also said Ukraine would lose and that we should not be arming them.

Ali dalje će ipak samo po svome? Tako bi volio da nisam u pravu.
Schmidt je govoreći diplomatski u uspješnoj ofanzivi šarma dok iza zatvorenih vrata samo s nekoliko ljudi vuče strateške korake prema Bosni. Uz sve umornije civilno društvo 💔 i superaktivne pojedince. Po nekoliko sati razgovara, ruča, večera u OHR-u s odabranim značajnim ljudima

Gospodin Lazović navodi kako on smatra da bi bilo dobro da popuna tih šest nedostajućih delegata po Schmidtovoj odluci bi trebala dolaziti iz manjinskih kantona, gdje je jedan narod manjinski. (prenosi Slobodna Bosna; hvala S. Hadžić)
OVO JE KLJUČNO: "Svaki etnički klub će sada umjesto 17 imati 23. Eh sada, iz kojih će kantona doći, odakle će doći ti novi kandidati, da li će se forsirati kantoni sa etničkom homogenizacijom ili će se forsirati neke druge sredine", rekao je Lazović...
