Slovenia banned Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik from entering the country. The ban follows Dodik's refusal to resign after a court ruling removed him from office due to a prior prison sentence and political ban. Dodik, who recently visited Russia, advocates for the separation of the Serb-run entity in Bosnia and has faced sanctions from the US, UK, Germany, and Austria. His family reportedly owns property in Slovenia. Dodik's actions are seen as destabilizing the fragile peace in Bosnia, a concern amplified by Russia's support for him.
