A verbal war erupted today in the National Assembly of Republika Srpska between Nenad Stevandić, the assembly president and leader of the Justice and Order list, and Nebojša Vukanović. It all started when Stevandić kicked Vukanović out of a committee session, sparking a barrage of insults and swearing. “You piece of trash, monkey, fat pig, you’re no friend of mine!” Vukanović shouted at Stevandić, while other MPs reacted strongly, some even accusing the assembly president of imposing a dictatorship. These two politicians have a long history of fierce verbal clashes, with Stevandić frequently cutting off Vukanović during debates. This kind of behavior in parliament raises serious concerns about the level of political culture and democracy in Republika Srpska. Is this just the tip of the iceberg or a sign that the parliament has become a battleground for personal feuds rather than a place for serious discussion? Got thoughts? Drop them below — maybe you’ve got the fix for this mess!
