Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina, January 9th, 2022 - A ceremonial parade was held to celebrate the Day of the Republika Srpska. The controversial National Day was declared unconstitutional by the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The 30th anniversary of the Republika Srpska is being marked amid a serious political crisis in the country. It follows a fear of a return to the dark years of the 1990s inter-ethnic war over secessionist aims. The Serb political leader Milorad Dodik's increasingly aggressive rhetoric along with his plans to start withdrawing from the Bosnian government has cast a large shadow over this year's banned holiday.
