The Deputy Minister of Finance of BiH, Muhamed Hasanović, signed the order for the payment of funds to the Central Election Commission of BiH for the implementation of the General Elections, which were announced for October this year.
He did this after the Minister of Finance of BiH from SNSD, Srđan Amidžić, refused to do his job.
The instruction provided 24 million KM for the conduct of the 2026 general elections.
“Thus, I once again showed the difference between those who are building the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina and those who are trying to block it,” wrote Hasanović.
Hasanović reminded that Srđan Amidžić remained silent, procrastinated and refused to approve funds for conducting elections as requested by the Central Election Commission of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
“I took responsibility and ensured that the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina can go to the elections. That is the essence of politics, you either protect the state or you block it. There is no middle ground. For months, we have been hearing stories about patriotism from those who are the first to destroy institutions when the state’s decisions don’t suit them. They are the loudest when they insult, provoke and act like fools in front of the cameras, but when the moment comes to make a decision in the interest of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina, responsibility and courage disappear, and institutions become a problem for them,” said Hasanović.
He says that he did not allow the Ministry of Finance and Treasury of BiH to be turned into a tool for blackmail and blockades.
“Bosnia and Herzegovina is not anyone’s prey, nor will the elections depend on the whim of any minister. I am particularly proud that I was part of the process by which Bosnia and Herzegovina introduced new election technologies for the first time by securing 112 million KM for a more transparent and fair election process. Today’s decision to secure an additional 24 million KM completes the entire process of financing the elections. It is a concrete result of working for the state, not an empty story for television appearances. Today it was shown how correct my decision was to refuse the post of Director of the Tax Administration of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and remain in the position of Deputy Minister of Finance and Treasury of Bosnia and Herzegovina. If I did not stay, these funds would probably be subject to blockades and political games.”
In the end, Hasanović said that some politicians try every day to prove that Bosnia and Herzegovina cannot function, but that he believes exactly the opposite, and that is why he puts his signature at the service of the state, its institutions and the rights of citizens.
“Bosnia and Herzegovina will survive all blockades, all obstructions and all petty politicians who think they can stop the country.” – it says Klix.
