Catalan Assembly said that it did not wish to be seen as an example for Republika Srpska to follow. “Catalonia aims to build a new and inclusive independent state, where there is a place for everyone regardless of their origin or nationality, Our project is based on tolerance and respect for the rights of minorities, and on European integration. For these reasons we consider that Catalonia is in no way an example for the political projects advocated by Dodik and his party.”
