Service tweet in 9 points for all those covering election in Bosnia and Herzegovina today:
1. Its the High Representative, not the UN-High Representative, EU-High Representative etc.
2. It has two entities, not states, not provinces. 1/7 3. One is called "Republika Srpska", it is not a "Serb Republic" (only fitting literal translation would be Republic of Serbdom")
4. The other is not a Bosniak-Croat entity, its the Federation of BiH (yes, I know it creates confusion) 2/7

The French proposal for unlocking the Bulgarian blockade is a disaster for enlargement. While it looks good to end the 🇧🇬 veto, it achieves little and holds great dangers: 1. it incorporates the bilateral dispute into the EU negotiating process, giving legitimacy & encouragement to future EU members blocking accession countries.

Former Austrian chancellor Sebastian Kurz has been very silent in recent months. His only political tweet is the following condemnation of terrorist attacks but nothing about the Russian attack on Ukraine. This is not a coincidence 🧵 In January he joined an NGO called the council on tolerance and reconciliation.

#Handke gave a long interview for @DIEZEIT recently. I noticed it got little attention in English debate. Thus, a long thread on it. Instead of being self-reflective, he retains his support for extreme Serb nationalist positions & distorts facts. zeit.de/2019/48/peter-… 1. He writes "How could Germany recognize Croatia, Slowenia and Bosnia & Herzegovina when on the territory 1/3 were orthodox and muslim Serbs". The notion of "muslim Serbs" is part of extreme Serb nationalism discourse, denying the existence of a Muslim/Bosniak nation.
