The Bosnian constitution was created by the Dayton agreement, signed in Paris in 1995 by the US, France, Britain, Russia, Germany. Here are a few excerpts from the constitution:
The Parliamentary Assembly shall have two chambers: the House of Peoples and the House of Representatives.
…
House of Peoples. The House of Peoples shall comprise 15 Delegates, two-thirds from the Federation (including five Croats and five Bosniacs) and one-third from the Republika Srpska (five Serbs).
…
House of Representatives. The House of Representatives shall comprise 42 Members, two-thirds elected from the territory of the Federation, one-third from the territory of the Republika Srpska.
…
Each chamber shall by majority vote adopt its internal rules and select from its members one Serb, one Bosniac, and one Croat to serve as its Chair and Deputy Chairs, with the position of Chair rotating among the three persons selected.
…
The Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina shall consist of three Members: one Bosniac and one Croat, each directly elected from the territory of the Federation, and one Serb directly elected from the territory of the Republika Srpska.
So much for the principle of ethnic neutrality! Now, as a practical matter, a Jew — Jakob Finci, leader of Bosnia’s Jewish community — wishes to run for the Presidency and cannot. He’s asking the European Court of Human Rights to intervene.
In Israel, an Arab could legally become Prime Minister (or President).
