BiH will not recognize independence of Kosovo because RS which is its constituent part will not agree to it, entity president Milorad Dodik repeated.

Dodik stated that ''Minister of Foreign Affairs of BiH Zlatko Lagumdzija tried to insert regulation at the first session of Council of Ministers of BiH which was supposed to regulate or lead to some informal recognition of Kosovo''.

''Kosovo was artificially recognized by countries and great forces in arrogance to punish Serbia and Serbian people, to humiliate it again and such Kosovo cannot get legitimacy from RS'', entity president stated for Bijeljina BN television last night.

He stated that Kosovo ''is a source of long year instability in the region and will not be recognized by RS as such''.
