The boycott of classes in schools continues as the students prevented the use of the Bosnian language

The boycott of classes in schools in the Zvornik area, which began the first day of this school year, continuing until further notice, because the pupils of Bosniak disabled study the Bosnian language and national subjects, reports Anadolu Agency (AA).

After today's meeting in Zvornik, where the parents of the students talked with elected representatives from both entities, the common conclusion that the OHR must be actively involved in solving this problem.

Over the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Bakir Izetbegovic and as a member of the Presidency, Adil Osmanovic, Minister of Civil Affairs and Semiha Borovac, the Minister for Human Rights and Refugees, we require the OHR to make a statement on this issue. If the problem is not solved, will begin on the drastic actions such as road blocks in the RS, said after the meeting Nedim Civic, a deputy in the National Assembly of BiH. Entities of the Republic of Serbian.

With the Zvornik area about 500 students do not go to class because they were on September 1, the beginning of the school year 2015/2016. year, said that instead of the Bosnian should study the Bosnian language or languages ​​of the Bosniak people, as it is called politicians in BiH. Entity Serbian Republic.

Ramiz Salkic, Vice President of the Republic of Serbian believes that the end to the problem in sight.

The problem can only deepen and broaden, and silence those who should take care of Annex 7 of the Dayton Agreement and the right of return. UNICEF, OHR, OSCE, European Commission and Council of Europe are silent and no action is taken to resolve the issue of the Bosnian language.

 These people are not interested in the European agenda or coordination mechanisms, they are only interested in a life that has stood since children do not attend school. OHR has imposed amendments to the 2002 Bosniaks in RS abandoned. I feel that we have forgotten and left alone, Salkic said, adding that the issue could be resolved only by the OHR.

Edin Ramic, Federal Minister for Refugees and Displaced Persons points out that the problem of the Bosnian language begins to depend on the will of individuals.

Since last year there have been no changes in legislation, and now suddenly causes the language issue. Individuals in the RS treat differently the educational process and real problems, said Ramic.

Parents of students who are boycotting classes resemble "the Bosniac language, or the language of the Bosniak people there, because as such it is not taught in any university in Bosnia and Herzegovina".

Let the politicians and those who decide on this put yourself in a situation in which we and our children, who are denied basic rights to education, said Sead Brkic, father of students.
