Much like the Ukrainians at the EuroMaidan, the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina rose up against their corrupt officials and demanded bread, political agency, and freedom. They have realized that one does not apply for freedom, but fights for it. It is particularly encouraging to see that the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina have started dismantling false deities of national unifications that kept them apart and imprisoned for decades. The citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina show on a daily bases that their protests transcend national, ethnic, and religious fault lines, while the corrupt political class tries to intimidate them back into submission by raising the spectre of national and ethnic divisions. We believe the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina rebelling against the bureaucracy of a failed state whose only mechanism of survival is endemic corruption deserve our respect and support. We are happy to extend both in hope that our voices might help them stay the course.
