PETITION TO BAN THE CELEBRATION OF JANUARY 9TH THE GENOCIDE RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF CANADA {IGK}

PETITION TO BAN THE CELEBRATION OF JANUARY 9TH THE GENOCIDE RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF CANADA {IGK}

Whereas:
On March 29, 2019, the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina again declared January 9 unconstitutional, i.e. annulled the part of the article of the Law on the Day of the Republic of Srpska, which reads "based on the confirmed will of the citizens of the Republic of Srpska, January 9 is established as the Day of the Republic".

Whereas:
The celebration of January 9 as the Day of the Republic of Srpska is a clear and direct failure to implement the final and binding decisions of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the decisions of the High Representative from July 1, 2023.



Whereas:
Failure to comply with the decisions of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina constitutes a criminal offense according to the Criminal Code of Bosnia and Herzegovina.


Given that January 9:
The day when the rebel group gathered around the war criminal Radovan Karadži? indicates the open destruction of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina and begins the genocide against the Bosniak population. On that day, under the command and baton of the Miloševi? regime and the JNA, began preparations for war crimes on the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The rebel group led by the SDS knew that this undertaking could not be carried out without genocide against the Bosniaks. This is the full monstrosity of Greater Serbia's politics. Therefore, they knew in advance what they would do and where the denial of Bosnian nationality in the international order would lead.


Bearing in mind:
This anti-constitutional, anti-Bosnian and anti-civilizational celebration demonstrates the non-recognition of the Dayton Agreement and attempts to turn the entity into a republic or state. This means that the January 9 project represents an abandonment of the agreement and a violation.  It is an open violation of the agreement on peace and the preservation of the Country of Bosnia and Herzegovina.  It is a public conspiratorial negation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. That date celebrates the open attack on the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Therefore, it is clear that January 9 is an expression of hegemony and militarism, which are opening a new disaster in these areas.

We, the undersigned citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina in and outside Bosnia and Herzegovina, ask the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as the guardian of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the anti-Dayton attacks, to ban the anti-constitutional, anti-state and anti-civilization celebration on January 9. Because it is obvious that the "frozen" state institutions of the police and judiciary are unable to react to the protection of the country, since they are in the hands of suspicious political oligarchies that serve the interests of Belgrade’s and Zagreb’s hegemonic policies.

The celebration on January 9 is clearly disputed by the institutions of the European Union, the Office of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Government of Canada and the governments of many Western countries, because for them the celebration on January 9 not only represents an attack on the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and an attack on the Dayton Peace Agreement, but also an attack on peace and security in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the region, Europe and the world.
