State crisis in Bosnia and Herzegovina

On February 26, 2025, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina sentenced the President of the Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, to one year in prison (from which he can, however, be released by paying a fine) and a six-year ban on political activity for disregarding decisions of the High Representative of the international community, Christian Schmidt. Dodik's reaction to the verdict leads Bosnia and Herzegovina into a state crisis.
