Written: Tuesday 22 February 2006
Prof. Kostic gave a lengthy analysis of the 1974
Bosnian Constitution.
Because according to Article I of the constitution, Bosnia was an equal state of Serbs, Croats, and Muslims and it was an integral part of Yugoslavia.
The 52nd amendment of the Bosnian constitution stated unequivocally that Bosnia;s borders and territorial status could not be changed unless two-thirds of all eligible voters vote in favor of
the change in a referendum.
In Bosnia's referendum, held on February 29, 1992, 62% of eligible voters voted in favor of secession, which means that the referendum failed because less than the required two-thirds voted for
it. Two-thirds is 66.6%, and 62% is less than that.

because less than the required two-thirds voted in favor. .
Milosevic will continue to re-examine Kostic when the trial resumes on Wednesday.Read more
