🚨 Bosnian Serb entity president Milorad Dodik was just declared guilty for directly opposing the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina and for not respecting the decisions of High Representative Christian Schmidt.
The Trump camp has had a habit of bulldozing through complex Balkan issues with little regard for their immense sensitivity.
Today, Rudy Giuliani is in Bosnia, interviewing Putin-loving nationalist politician Milorad Dodik—just ahead of a verdict that could sideline him from politics for a decade.

It's amazing how authoritarian regimes that have been in place for years can so suddenly be driven from power. The horrors they inflict are real, but their stability is ultimately an illusion.
