The United States on Friday imposed sanctions on family members and the wider business network of Bosnian Serb nationalist and pro-Russian leader Milorad Dodik, the U.S. Treasury Department said in a statement.
Dodik, president of the autonomous Serb Republic, is already under U.S. and UK sanctions. He has long advocated the secession of the Serb-dominated region from Bosnia.
On Friday, the U.S. Treasury Department sanctioned the Bosnian Serb leader’s two adult children – his son Igor Dodik and daughter Gorica Dodik – and their business companies, which Washington says facilitated the Bosnian Serb leader’s ongoing corruption.
