Pro-Russia Bosnian Serb nationalist Milorad Dodik has declared victory for his party in Bosnia’s election, despite not being on the ballot. He dominated the campaign with separatist rhetoric that deepened ethnic divisions and raised fears of renewed instability. With most votes counted, his ally Željka Cvijanović led for one seat on the tripartite presidency.
