Bosnia and Herzegovina is holding elections for the 10th time since the end of the war over three decades ago, with voters electing more than 500 members of a complex government structure. The Dayton Peace Accord, which ended the war in 1995, established this structure. However, significant political and ethnic divisions persist in the country. Analysts suggest that this election could be the most consequential since the signing of the agreement. The implications of the election are being closely monitored both within Bosnia and in the broader region. Experts participating in discussions include Jahja Muhasilovic, Assistant Professor at the International University of Sarajevo; Nina Sajic, Professor in the School of Political Science at the University of Banja Luka; and Bodo Weber, Senior Associate at the Democratization Policy Council.
