Summary/Abstract: The Declaration of the All-Serbian Assembly can be considered a continuation of the policy of a Great Serbia, especially when its implications for the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina are considered. This perspective arises from several key points within the Declaration that concern: national unity and identity, the role of the Serbian Orthodox Church, the interpretation of the Dayton Peace Agreement and finally, the relations between the entity of Republika Srpska and the state of the Republic of Serbia. Although the declaration does not explicitly call for a “Great Serbia“, its emphasis on Serbian unity, its interpretation of the Dayton Agreement, its relationship with entity Republika Srpska, and its stance on historical events and interpretations suggest a continuation of policies that undermine the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and more broadly, a continuation of hegemonic politics. The focus of the declaration on protecting and promoting Serbian interests, along with its revisionist narratives, raises concerns about its potential to destabilize regional relations.
