Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b The election of the government of Republika Srpska, headed by Minić, and the process of its appointment is considered illegal and unconstitutional according to the Constitution of Republika Srpska due to Milorad Dodik, who was forbade from political activity for six years by the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, proposing a prime minister without legal authority.[1] This violated the Constitution of Republika Srpska and the Election Law of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as the Central Election Commission ordered Dodik's removal on 6 August 2025.[2] On 18 August, his appeal against the decision of the Central Election Commission was rejected and his mandate as Republika Srpska president was officially terminated.[3] The termination date was marked as 12 June 2025, due to the Bosnian state court's verdict becoming legally binding on that day.[4] For this reason, it is considered that Minić's government lacks legal legitimacy, despite its majority support in the National Assembly of Republika Srpska.[5]
