Inzko told the newspaper. "I do not wish to be forced to use the powers of my mandate, but I have all the support I need to do it. I am still considering what I could do. I still hope I won't have to act."


What are the powers he is referring to?

He has the power to remove public officials from their post, so theoretically he has the power to sack Dodik and to block the referendum. The Serbs are threatening to withdraw from all federal institutions in Bosnia if he does this.

Oh, I just read some further on it and it appears that he can do as you said as he is the ultimate power in Bosnia. Why do the Serbs feel that there is something wrong with the justice system? Shouldn't everyone be looking to fix whatever is failing there, must be pretty serious if RS is going to referendum for it...
