Council of 3 president s, a buzz neck, a cracked and serb rotating the governments chairmanship to preserve the status quo. Part of the 1995 agreement to promote peace and stability was the establishment of the office of the high representative. But 27 years later, the agreement has been heavily criticized as its proven effective in reducing the ethnic divisions of the past. I said bake insoluble some 3300000 in Bosnia Herzegovina headed to the poles last week to choose lawmakers at a regional and national level, as well as 3 members of the president ial cancel. But on the very light of the election after poles closed, the countries of his overseer. Hi representative Christian Schmidt announced changes to the election law. Schmidt says the changes will create a more effective government working between the country to entities. Republic services of predominantly bought the instead and the federation of Bosnia Herzegovina, of mainly boston and boston crowd. But many of you changed for the better is unlikely. Lets find out what this means for the country. As high representative for Bosnia Herzegovina, Christian Schmidt talks to algebra. I representative for Bosnia Herzegovina, Christian Schmidt. Thank you for joining us and talk to al jazeera tkip. You chose the night of the elections to use your powers, also known as the bon papers to allow you to make changes to the law. You change the number of representatives to the upper house, are known as the house of peoples, how they are chosen and gave a deadline for forming a government. Why did you choose the night of the elections to make that announcement . This is very simple. I did not want to interfere in delight to process the decision of the electorate of the people on the one side. And i did not want to give the impression that i would go to corporate. She little tune, knowing the electoral results or the 1st her information about them and to adapt any decision i have made this decision ah, on sunday morning and signed the decision prepared for a lot. And so a desk was to puppets her it. After the closing of the polling stations, we have members of the European Parliament objecting to announcement saying things like this, overshadowed by the use of your power. The elections have been overshadowed. Several european observer saying it was a slap in the face of voters that it shows great, distract a disrespect for the citizens of this country voted that it caters duke crew, cried at no nationalists, the hasty that hatred he said, and this is the party in croatia had you respond to these comments for childbirth . Well, will we have to see that the federation of Bosnia Herzegovina, lex since 4 years, i repeat since 4 years, a presidency, a government, and in a few in short time, a court. And i shall do nothing. Went home, i refused very drastically. This her unacceptable accusation. To me. I would have any thing done which would affect her the voters decision. What im doing is not referring the counting of the old, but how to make use out of it. What is her election . And the will of the people and members of European Parliament and i have been member for parliament and throughout the year for sort of the year. So i know are valuable about what am talking and i do not need any. There are suggestion about what to do and how to behave and us, and that basically democratic and what did i, i did just help and what im doing that the bill of the water will b paused and put into reality that it. But not everybody agrees with you. The European Union seemed to distance itself from your decision said that the powers should be used as a last resort. And the decision was made by you, i dont is was what was this really a last resort for years . No government and you need no last resort. Why the European Union distancing themselves from you . Asked that European Union . Did you make this decision along versus my decision . I had some Good Corporation consultation, but this is my decision. Thats my job. I am appointed here her to look on the her date to an agreement and to make it working. So this is what im doing. Do you think that the decisions that the, the changes that you have brought it up announced . Do you think it will make it work looking at the reaction . I hope so. But this does not depend on the reactions of anywhere in the world. This depend, this depend on the people here and on the Decision Makers here. If i would just be here and having and seeing a functioning state, i think i would better go the next day because they need nothing. If there is a situation where the people have no confidence in the war, ting and in the results, dont forget your how here in a country where corruption and nepotism is not a theoretical issue that we have to give back people confidence and the hag, im a tell you are beyond all political and official statements, and i am prepared to discuss with all my colleagues in European Parliament. I have to hide nothing. But i have to say, i only know if we want to make things better here, like show more these set. I dont know exactly, rather it works better when it changes, but i only know i have to change to make it working better. Talking about that cooperation, theres also claims, questioning your impartiality that youve handed out of favor to your ers as to your parties and a Christian Social Union sister party by imposing these changes last year. The corrosion Prime Minister, sondra plank of which attended a gathering of your party in germany, where he specifically praised you said that you have Great International experience, but he looks all it i think i have great in it, but yes, but he also said that he looked forward to cooperating with you to ensure a reform of electoral legislation in bosnia. Do you consider yourself impartial . Absolutely. And how about your relationship to your sister party in croatia . May i tell you and ask you, do you know which sister . Pardon or c as you house a small in Bosnia Herzegovina sta . Which sister paddy tess, he um, ah, republica sutka, p and p which party has a contact in the n, serbia woodridge party. So that they just did, then he does come to your parties gathering in germany and praise. You said that they wanted to cooperate with you cuz you talk about cooperation. Who did you cooperate with for to make this decision with me both myself. So can you explain to International Audience . Did you have any cooperation . It ratio have is a story i do not understand. Shall i not cooperate . Will the people around here and this in this region, shall i not . I have been s bower in budapest, in burke gray in slovenia, anywhere because they people, they know one if this here of the territorial integrity of this country is put in question. And dont forget that we have sometimes m, mr. Put him being addressed it in that region that it would be indeed a challenge. Somebody said to me, your break cant talk about the dissolution. But there is no peace for dissolution and the switch and saw this is about severe issues. And so i have like all the others to talk with everybody. This does not in n, how shall that i would not make my decision on myself. Believe me, i am old enough that im aware that i have to make my decisions. I stand for the decisions and the importance us, what ends in which direction hopefully of us are success. Okay. Can you explain to International Audience . You said that you cooperate. Youve spoken to different people that if you coordinated with zach group, if we have officials from zagreb celebrating these changes and saying that they are responsible for them, they are wrong. You know, the way you did, you didnt, you didnt coordinator them. Why . What, why are they celebrating these changes . Asked themselves . I make my decisions. Did you speak with officials in zagreb . Before you made this decision . I thought means before you made that last year. Oh sorry. I mean, we had a shot were totally, totally at about about the decision and you are not interrogating me aware. Im traveling. Well, i travelling everywhere addressing this is about coordination. These are these, these are the allegations are, are being made against you that you have the haitian. Yes, but by people within this country are saying that you are not impartial, that this decision favors a certain particular group are correct at no nationalists. And im asking you, if there was coordination reserve group, i have to say very clearly, my friend, you cannot ask me whether theres a coordination and then comment. This would be an order from this site. I have talked to everybody, to be very clear. This is my decision, you can discuss about my decision, but please, on another level, do you think this decision will, will matter, considering the already deep divisions inside this country or will it need to a crisis because it also they have for that fear that yet that but lets come back to the issue, dor dick is, has just been last year to go out of this country. No problem. Its a problem. In the correct caucus, theres a tendency of some extremist to talk about a 3rd entity. Totally impossible. We will go against this as well. There are some complaints in the boston jak community. Big children in this country, up to now have different curriculum about history versus the issue. 80 percent of the young people in this country are leaving. What are we doing . Nepotism corruption, thats the issue. And some t r for sometimes i think some of those are who are just are asking whether i have met mr. Plain coverage on mr. Milan, norwich for mr. Wood. Judge, i didnt bid mr. Door that to, to be open because he refused to meet, you know, him vocal versus not the question, the questioners. Brothers country, sir wife in a good way and come to europe in integration. Yes or no. This is so because i thought i have to correct a little bit the intention of your question. My intention of the question had to get to the truth. Oh yeah. You mentioned, you mentioned godek you, you as the high representative have the power to remove him. He has made those comments and i should remove, you know, im saying that you have the power to remove my cost or just anything you have the power to move him yet. Hes, you know, you have the power because of the dayton agreement. Why didnt you or why dont you . Thats those help you chose not to you chose to make these changes the specific changes. If someone is making kind of a february hung from bosnia and herzegovina, you see that as a problem. Yeah. And i had so all statements and positions and Legacy Nation to avoid that must her daughter a continuous and separation maybe what i have seen, we have just got her caught the session, which absolutely supports my decision not to see. For example, are state property being handed toward the republic, her supp hska, because this is a state level issue. So a lot of details are to be booked and i prefer that they want us to decide whether they want to have somebody yes or no. The current authorization for the e u, Multinational Stabilization force expires in november. This yet that previously russia has threatened to withdraw is support what happens if they do i dont see that the International Community will give up on the presidency and boss. Now its been because people want to see us. Theyve been sasha. Now they and fear of been forgotten. So i intensely, ah, supporting those who want to have which international, her presence. However, ive heard that the american secretary of state some months ago referred to that possibility. If not your for our tier to have natal. I see this could be drawn out of the dayton agreement unexplained a to have nato her. I have not done it. I had at nato was here, and to nato cares for this country. As so far this as you are for until you ask me, what will happen if no security counselor there wont be a rito so ah, the question is, are there alternatives . How they are arranged . Yes, i think there are alternatives, and they refer to the secretary of state of the United States of america. The election took place and mister backdrop of russian influence in republic. Subscriber miller, miller, doug di dick has visited moscow. He supported the war and ukraine. He, you know, hes a met Vladimir Putin. What you make of the russian influence. And can it be counted because weve spoken to nato official to say that it runs deep in repub, accepts good that russian influence can. Can that be counted . There are some, some hints that there is indeed such an influence. I see theres not very, are not very are let me say visible her, but ron has to make clear that this is not a place for games. So i think her security should be delivered through frontier and other area is an international ah question. Which should not done cannot be only answered here in boston, out sick armina. Back to those changes that youve announced. What happens if a government isnt formed . If they dont manage to have an agreement, you gave a 30 day deadline. What happens . Yeah. Then at the end of next 30 days, oh the number necessary to present and candidate and the Different Party court are not binding, but the ethnic caucuses are goes down to 7 and then goes down to 4. So this will be a possibility. If for the majority failed to find of both fir, the minority a government. So im pretty pretty convinced that this will work out. And what kind of feedback have you had from within inside the country to your announcement from the different parties. I talked to all the key different partners center, or maybe youre surprised her. They all basically acquit no objections at all. Her some i would say if in this country are no objections, you are wrong. But basically her. What will you argue against her situation that there is nothing going on . Everything is blocked by the way, blocked i, her civil part this especially by one which i go for a hush dip locking and her. So i think theres a lot of support for this. Theres also questions about why these changes were made. Specifically for the federation of bosnia. This is a similar question and a simple answer because this kind of blockade did not take place and they got because up sca ah, there is a government, there isnt quite another structure. Yes. And then the federation or it has been on the state level. Ah, we have seen this strange blockade do given by mister dor dick, its a member of the state presidency. He will no longer be a member of the state presidency. So i think this is in your journal, dora, i expect that the corporation on improve but the new member elected is a member of his party. Hes put her forward. I havent bought it for it, but her, but she is indeed youre absolutely right. And so those problems are still persist in the potential problem persists you to answer the question, would you notice post, why do you not have changed . Simply because this is the date and constitution. And i am here to protect the dating constitution by bill to change the date constitution. This has to be done at the parliament, like all the other human rights issues, which i support fully. Ah, its impossible that a jewish or a person which does not refer to be as a quad or washing york or sir cannot run for the presidency of this country. This impossible then strove years if a court ruling of the European Court of human rights and it has not yet been implemented. That term i feel and see that this lot of the people you asking how is the direction they wanna go on do more and have to say, i can not do this because i think this is talk to the parliament and somehow i think were after give it more to other people when you say this is to the parliament do, theres also been some people saying that this, the decisions that you have taken when need to over representation of certain groups like the croats. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I havent changed anything. Ah, nor in the only thing ive increased a proportionally to everybody. Its was every by the every 3. Ah cookers response. 17. No, its 23. The only thing is i have done more for the so called others. They are now 11. They have been 7. So that it and really guarantee representation for the others. Yes. The problem is that we are not allowed to, to implement the understanding that this country consists out of more than 3 constituent people. Especially the are the so called this richard ha, minority edison, others because Court Constitutional court, which i respect. And the us has decided that 1st, se, dish pin c has to implemented on state level. And we are again, since 14 years, then they was fusion. And this country facilitated by here a p and you and yeah, and United States and so on. And there are sold is cyril point 0. 0. So i think would have to my feeling us if we would not succeed in getting the state level changed, who have somehow to give it to other people to give it to other people. What does this mean . Ah some are asking for having dayton chill your cannot go. And the u. S. Air force base sit ah, for 3 weeks and create a new constitution for this country. This country has to make the constitution itself. You said that we cant have a dayton to. We should not have my should not have a date and 2, but isnt Something Like that required to make fundamental change in this country was in dayton supposed to be temporary. They absolutely, they turned was sir politically, constitutionally qualified ceasefire. And it worked for an hour 30 years 27 years. But then in all our understanding of european integration and of human rights, the people themselves have to decide tell me which country gets her conference hold of the country with people from other countries, including for example, serbia krasier and others deciding about this. I think well have definitely to give it to the people. How could this work or if we just are taking her caretakers for this country, theyre sir ed educated, adult people. Ah, but unfortunately a situation where the political class. Yes. Beyond some very reasonable politicians, i have to say this is not there are to everybody, but theres those unfortunately a problem. And they kept her in the prepared nest to act on behalf of the people are her. Some are only acting on behalf of their entity of their people, people, constituent people of their or ethnic group or and or we are lacking a little of the, the real liking b ha, composition of the child interest. And though youre coming to the key problem here, youth are said this living trade to present why they are both killed, they should have up chance and they have some of them how up chance. But they are feeling that in this country, corruption is so strong are clear until assume that if they do, just want to get the independent chop, merit based the see a problem. So worth to change this. And we have to come to a joint historical understanding of the past here, unfortunately, on the country, he has all the political sinner in this country estimated by an actual historical relation which is not have for the idea that we are the better ones. And we will dominate the other ones here, sled to at this house the in this country versus the real message. Not the question. Ah, rather, my i p blocking instruments are saving the country they will help. Im pretty convinced that they will not answer the basic questions. Time will tell. Thank you. Hi, representative.
