Outlawed Bosnian Serb leader Dodik campaigns indirectly in Bosnia elections

Milorad Dodik, convicted and barred from office, remains influential in Bosnia's election campaign ahead of Sunday's polls, marking his first absence from the ballot in 36 years. His continued political involvement, alongside praise for AfD, Putin, and Trump, signals persistent nationalist and pro-Russian influence in Bosnian Serb politics. The elections will test the stability of Bosnia's fragile political order.
