AI Summary:
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has pledged the military alliance’s “unwavering” support for Bosnia and Herzegovina’s federal government. He spoke in Sarajevo on Monday after meeting the three members of Bosnia’s multiethnic presidency shortly after Bosnian Serb lawmakers passed legislation. Bosnia has consisted of two autonomous regions – Republika Srpska and a Bosniak-Croat federation, which are linked by a weak central government. Bosnian officials said the laws violate the peace agreement binds the two regions under joint institutions, including the army, top courts and tax authorities. Bosnia has struggled to move forwards with a heavily divided society and a stagnant economy. Rutte said on Monday that NATO would not allow hard-won peace to be jeopardised. NATO remains committed to the stability of this region and to the security of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
