Don’t mingle with the adults when they’re talking.
Not surprising a pathological liar would defend another liar with pathetic ad hominem attacks. This is the debates forum, not the avoid debates with ad hominem attacks forum. RETARD!

Okay. So it's mainly one German official. But your article makes it clear Schmidt opposed the law; you made it seem like he supported it, which he doesn't.

I do agree that Schmidt trying to hold power over Bosnia is meddling. Still, it's one country, not "the West".
Schmidt isn't some German tourist who all of a sudden decided to intervene in Bosnian politics; his position was created by the Western powers and he is appointed by them and backed by the military power of NATO:

Abe Lincoln was worse than Milosevic. He killed a crap load of people simply because they wanted to secede from the union. He didn't even have the excuse the south were heroin traders like the Kosovo Muslims.
Yeah imagine killing a load of slave owners and their chain dogs in combat, so much worse than herding civilians into death camps and slaughtering them, well spotted Ivan 🙄

Ahh them shadowy western powers again, I wonder if we’ll ever know who they are 🤔 you sound more like a St Petersburg troll with every post No1
Why not just fess up and call them by their common descriptor ‘western ( relatively ) liberal ( relatively ) democratic nations, of course western powers sounds so much more Che.

Fine. But even so, it's weird for you to call it "western meddling" when Bosnia and Herzegovina are also European nations. They were even granted EU candidate status last year.

Being a "liberal democratic nation" doesn't give one free rein to do whatever one pleases to the People of other nations.

Ask the Vietnamese or Iraqis.

The present nation of Bosnia- Herzegovina exists purely because of outside force. The two halves have little in common and the central government is a shell. The Serbian areas made it clear even before the nation declared independence that they did not want to be part of it and only NATO's military intervention and continued implied threat of force keeps those regions and their People in the country.

It's "weird" you don't know this.

Calling this "western meddling" is like calling China's takeover of the South Sea "Asian meddling".

I was unaware that the Balkans have now become part of the "West". Seems like that concept is ever expanding.

Anyway, you're nitpicking; we all know where the major geopolitical decisions are made in the "West" and it ain't in Bosnia.

Greece is both a member of the EU and NATO.

But yeah, this is becoming a nitpick battle.

It was about Kosovo. The west wanted independence for Kosovo.
