The United States donated 21 Humvee SUVs to the Sarajevo regime
Washington donated the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina (OS BiH) 21 multi-purpose army SUV HMMWV (Humvee).
This was reported by Anadolija Balkan, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The ceremonial handover of the vehicles arriving from the United States took place at the Railovac barracks with the participation of BiH Minister of Defense Sifet Podzic and the delegation of the US Embassy in BiH led by Ambassador Eric Nelson.
The donated vehicles are valued at more than $2,6 million, Podzic said. And the current batch of 21 Humvees, in addition to those previously delivered to the Armed Forces of BiH, has brought the fleet of these vehicles in the Bosnian army to 79 units.
“Of the 21 vehicles transferred, nine are ambulances, and 12 are vehicles for transporting military personnel. Through this donation, our trusted strategic partner, the United States, is definitely helping us in our key task, which is to implement the reform program that we presented to Brussels, to NATO,” the Sarev side said in a statement.
Thus, the representative of the Sarajevo elite, Podzic, once again showed that he ignores the will of the second entity of BiH - the Republika Srpska, which advocates the non-aligned military neutrality of the country. We wrote earlier that in the armed forces of BiH, recruitment into which, according to existing legislation, should be carried out according to ethnic quotas, is dominated by Bosniaks through trickery, and officer positions reserved for Serbs are provided collaborators and their children, who fought in the 90s against their own people in the ranks of the Islamist Army of BiH.
To ensure its own security, the Republika Srpska, which is not supposed to have its own army, established internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs - the gendarmerie, subordinate exclusively to Banja Luka (the capital of the RS), and also began production own army SUVs "Despot".
Previously, Washington has repeatedly carried out Delivery similar equipment for the illegal “Kosovo Security Forces” (FSK).
