Supervisor Susan R. Johnson’s statement regarding formation of Brcko District Government

"Responsibility for forming the Government now rests with the elected representatives and the political parties, in accordance with the results of the elections, not with OHR.  These decisions are now forthe elected representatives and political parties to make, and we urge them to act wisely, putting the interests of the citizens and Brcko District aside ahead of narrow personal or party interests.” 

"OHR will not support one coalition or another, because responsibility - and accountability for this decision - now rests with the citizens, their elected representatives and the political parties.  OHR supports an open and clean political process that leads to the best result possible for the District.”

"OHR is committed to the well-being of the citizens of this community, to full implementation of the Brcko International Tribunal Awards, to the establishment of democratic, multi-ethnic institutions that function effectively on behalf of the citizens, to the rule of law and to the principle that no person is above the law. 

We expect the constitutive session of the Assembly to be held no later thanNovember 24, 2004."
