The initiative to deploy Bosnia's Armed Forces on the border was rejected earlier and nothing has changed since then, Bosnian Serb Presidency member said on Thursday responding to Security Minister Fahrudin Radoncic's claims that he sees no reason for not doing so.

“The decision's been made earlier and it's still in force. The migrant issue needs to be dealt with in a different manner and more seriously,” the Serb member of Bosnia's tripartite Presidency said.

He added that he hopes the EU's entrance borders in Greece and Bulgaria will remain strong near the border with Turkey.

On June 11, 2019, Bosnia's tripartite presidency had rejected the initiative filed by its Croat member Zeljko Komsic to deploy the army along the Serbian and Montenegrin border, preventing the entrance of migrants from these two countries.

Milorad Dodik voted against this initiative.
