After the judge of the Municipal Court in Sarajevo, Pavle Crnogorac, issued a temporary ban on "Dnevni avaz" from writing about the private life of the President of the Court of B&amp;H, Ranko Debevec, the Steering Board of the BH Journalists Association made statement. 
You can read their full letter below:
The Steering Committee of the BH Journalists Association sends a public protest to the Municipal Court in Sarajevo against the decision to temporarily ban “Dnevni Avaz” from writing about the private life of the President of the Court of B&amp;H, Ranko Debevec. “Dnevni Avaz” and its editors are ordered to “refrain from harassing the plaintiff (Debevec) in terms of presenting information from his private life, both in print and electronic, daily and other media.”

<h2>The decision of the Municipal Court is disputable because nothing is argued in the explanation</h2>

The decision of the Municipal Court in Sarajevo is disputable because the explanation does not argue that writing about the private life of the President of the Court of B&amp;H is not in the public interest, nor that Dnevni avaz violated his right to privacy, as the authors of the disputed articles repeatedly emphasized that they are publishing certain information from Debevec’s private life in order to prove his abuse of office.

Ordering the ban on writing also means that the Court concludes in advance that all future texts of Dnevni avaz that may be published about Ranko Debevec will be defamatory and untrue, and this type of presumption is essentially media censorship and cannot be considered as protection of the integrity of the President of the Court . In addition, judge Pavle Crnogorac noted in the decision on the measure of ban that “for violating judicial ethics there are institutions that do their job diligently”, which can be interpreted as a message to the media not to investigate abuses of judicial office because this is the “task” exclusively for the competent institutions ?!

Respecting the dignity of judicial institutions and without any intention to determine whether the allegations from the articles published in Dnevni Avaz are true or not, the Steering Committee of BH Journalists believes that the decision of the Municipal Court in Sarajevo represents pressure on freedom of speech and media reporting. The imposing of an interim measure can also be interpreted as censorship and preventing the media from critically reporting on judicial office holders.

Finally, the Steering Committee of BH Journalists draws attention to the fact that the Municipal Court of Sarajevo expressly, within only a few days after filing a lawsuit against the media, imposed a temporary measure, thus demonstrating priority action on lawsuits and reports filed by judicial officials, while numerous other defamation cases are put in drawers and sometimes takes years to be resolved.

<h2>The case law of the European Court of Human Rights is completely circumvented</h2>

The Steering Committee of BH Journalists especially warns that, if the temporary measure remain in force, such solutions could become a model according to which in the future the courts will give themselves the right to prevent the media from writing about judicial, political and other public office holders with the argument of protecting their privacy, without taking into account whether the published information represents the public interest and evidence of possible abuse of position.&nbsp;This completely circumvents the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, which emphasizes the need to strike a balance between the privacy of public officials and the right of the public to be informed of the ways in which they perform their functions. Such conduct by the courts would also open space for censorship and repression, which is unacceptable in democratic societies.&nbsp;It should be reminded that, yesterday, the Steering Committee of the Press and Online Media Council of B&amp;H strongly condemned the pressure on freedom of media reporting through the decision of the judge of the Municipal Court in Sarajevo Pavle Crnogorac in which "Dnevni avaz", a full member of the Council, was imposed a temporary ban on writing about the private life of the President of the Court of B&amp;H Ranko Debevec.

It is inadmissible that court decisions prohibits "Dnevni avaz" from writing about the private life of the President of the Court of B&H Ranko Debevec, according to the BH Journalists Association

According to our reporter which is currently in front of the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H, Milorad Dodik, the chairman of the Presidency of B&amp;H left the building, where he was questioned by the prosecutor.
He received an invitation to testify about the circumstances of the "Icon" affair. Dodik entered the building through side entrance of the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H, and in the same way he left the building.

It is an icon that Dodik gave to Sergey Lavrov, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, during his recent visit to B&amp;H.
Ukraine soon reacted, claiming that it was an icon that was part of their cultural heritage and that they believe it had been stolen. Shortly afterwards, Lavrov returned the icon, and Interpol was ordered to investigate its origin.

German Health Minister Jens Spahn on Thursday suggested coronavirus restrictions could be lifted before spring, as case numbers in the country continued to edge downwards.

-We can't stay in this hard lockdown all winter. We would not tolerate that well as a society- Spahn said in an interview with the Funke media group. 
Germany went into a partial lockdown in November, closing bars, restaurants and cultural and sporting facilities.
Schools and non-essential shops were added to the list in mid-December, with rules on mask-wearing and working from home tightened in January amid concerns over new virus variants. 
The number of new infections and patients in intensive care has been falling steadily since the start of the year, a trend Spahn called "encouraging". 
But the Robert Koch Institute health body reported 14,211 new cases and 786 deaths on Thursday and an incidence rate of 81 -- still well above the target of 50 that German politicians have set as a yardstick for reopening.
Chancellor Angela Merkel and the leaders of Germany's 16 states will meet on Wednesday to decide whether to extend restrictions after they expire on February 14.
Some experts believe it is too soon to relax the measures, especially in the light of new, more contagious variants.
Ute Teichert, the head of the Federal Association of German Public Health Officers, called last week for a so-called zero-Covid strategy to stamp out infections.
-We cannot start relaxing (restrictions) again at an incidence rate of 100, 70 or 50- she said. 
But Spahn said the goal for Germany remained "to prevent the health system from being overburdened -- and not to avoid every infection".
-To get it down to zero infections and keep it that way comes at a disproportionate cost in other areas of life- he said.

The Assembly of the Sarajevo Canton adopted a Resolution on prevention and suppression of gender-based and sexual harassment and violence in the Canton, proposed by the caucus of the Representatives of Our Party, Vildana Beslija, Neira Dizdarević and Vibor Handžić.

The Resolution emphasizes that sexual harassment and violence are one of the most common forms of violence, which are also the most easily tolerated and for which the legislation does not have an adequate sanctioning mechanism.
It is stated that this includes unwanted sexual behaviors that do not necessarily involve physical contact, and put the person in an awkward and humiliating position and cause a sense of shame.
-The key aspect of this type of harassment and violence is power, because it is often carried out by a person who is in a more powerful position than the person over whom it is carried out, which leads to the situation that sexual harassment is used as a tool of power and influence. Sexual harassment is often treated as a trivial problem that can be easily avoided and stopped, which is usually not true- it was pointed out in the Resolution.
The Representatives' caucus of that party believes that the Government of the Sarajevo Canton, in cooperation with experts from relevant fields, should urgently draft an urgent procedure in the Assembly for adoption and submit a draft law on prevention and prohibition of gender-based and sexual harassment and violence in the Sarajevo Canton, a proposal for a rulebook on the rules of conduct for employers and workers in relation to the prevention and protection against harassment at workplace in the Sarajevo Canton and a proposal for a protocol on dealing with cases of reported harassment and violence.
The Representatives have obliged the Government of the Sarajevo Canton to urgently establish expert working groups to develop an action plan for the prevention and suppression of gender-based harassment and sexual harassment and violence, and to establish a 'Help Line' for reporting gender-based and sexual harassment and violence.

Director of the Border Police of Bosnia and Herzegovina Zoran Galić met today with the Prime Minister of the Una-Sana Canton Mustafa Ružnić and the Mayor of Bihać Šuhret Fazlić and confirmed the current inability of this agency to adequately protect the state border.

-We are still working according to the ordinance from 2000, which prescribes one man within an area of 16 kilometers and one patrol within an area of 32 kilometers in the control of the green border. We have been silent for four or five years and trying to cover up our shame. How can I convince our public or anyone else that we can guard the border with one patrol at 32 kilometers ?! It would be absurd to defend such a thesis from an expert point of view- Galić stated.
It was pointed out that all the necessary preconditions for the reform of the B&amp;H Border Police have been met, but that the competent state institutions have not implemented it for more than five years.
“First of all, we want to jointly appeal to the competent state institutions. It is February and we know that a new influx of migrants and refugees awaits us. It is necessary to deal with the security aspect because suffice it to say that the USC MoI currently lacks 120 police officers and the BiH Border Police up to 1,200 people. Material and technical equipment is also far from a satisfactory level,” said Cantonal Prime Minister Ružnić.
At today's meeting in Bihać, certain joint activities were agreed, i.e. operational possibilities of the USC Police and the Border Police, when it comes to controlling the movement of migrants and refugees.

The judge for the preliminary procedure of the Court of B&amp;H, Tatjana Kosović, heard the prosecutor Ćazim Hasanspahić who explained the proposal for ordering custody for Hasan Dupovac and Zijad Mutap.
They are charged with the criminal offenses of organized crime, illegal mediation and aiding the perpetrator after committing criminal offense. 
Dupovac told the judge that he was a senior police inspector and that he is in the middle class. Mutap stated that he has a high school diploma and that he supports himself by receiving money from people who live abroad.
- Without a doubt, you will see that the suspects communicated and gave money for purchasing a Renault Clio - says Hasanspahić.

Prosecution witnesses S. D. and A. H. testified and the suspects addressed them with the words, "Nothing will happen to you as far as the police is concerned, just don't commit a murder and purchase a Renault car."
- They were buying evidence. They promised money from private sources to buy the vehicle. That Renault was not used in the proceedings. At the hearing, Mutap did not deny that he inquired about that vehicle because it was for sale. Searches were carried out and phones, CDs, USB sticks were found ... A notebook with notes "Muriz Memić interviews" and "Muriz internally" were found at Mutap's house - says Hasanspahić.

The prosecutor emphasized that an investigation was being conducted against 45 people, and that one witness yesterday asked for protection.
- Witnesses are seeking protection. The investigation will be disrupted. To this day, we do not know how young Dženan was killed - explains Hasanspahić.
The prosecution also claims that a network of people is involved in this case.
- Officials from cantons all the way to the state level are involved in this. The investigation is complex and there are conditions to order custody - says Hasanspahić.
The prosecutor also announced the expansion of the investigation to three more people, which will take place in the next 30 days.
Ermin Gačanović, Dupovac's lawyer, expressed concerns, because he believes that the prosecution is abusing institutions.
- Out of 83 pieces of evidence from the proposal, the defense received only 21. The right to defense was violated here. My client has already been a suspect once and that investigation is over - says Gačanović.
He considers his client an honorable police officer who did his job according to the regulations and about whom he says: "If everything happened from the start again, my client would act identically." Lawyer Gačanović also emphasized that he believes that the investigation is politically motivated, but he did not want to explain why.
Mutap's lawyer, Nina Kisić, also objected ordering detention, stating that her client had previously offered the exempted notebook to the prosecution in order to assist in the investigation.

Italy’s data protection authority said on Wednesday TikTok had agreed to block all accounts in the country from Feb. 9 in order to make sure only users older than 13 had access to the service app.

Children usage of online platforms has come under fire in Italy after the death of a 10-year-old girl last month that has been blamed on a social media challenge. Prosecutors in Palermo are investigating the case.
The authority said TikTok would ask users to again provide their date of birth before allowing them back onto the app and would remove all accounts of users below the required age threshold.
In addition to the request to users to state their age, the company has also committed to considering using artificial intelligence systems to identify users below the age of 13, the authority said in a statement.

After the judge of the Municipal Court in Sarajevo, Pavle Crnogorac, issued a temporary ban on "Dnevni avaz" from writing about the private life of the President of the Court of B&amp;H, Ranko Debevac, the Steering Board of the Press and Online Media Council in B&amp;H made statement.You can read their full statement below:
The Steering Board of the Press and Online Media Council in Bosnia and Herzegovina strongly condemns the pressure on freedom of media coverage through the decision of Sarajevo Municipal Court Judge Pavle Crnogorac to impose a temporary measure of banning „Dnevni avaz“, a full member of the Council, from writing about the private life of the President of Court of B&amp;H Ranko Debevec.
Respecting the judicial system and the laws of B&amp;H, the Council draws attention to the importance of free journalistic reporting, freedom of the media and freedom of expression guaranteed by international acts on the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms. We note that the introduction of prohibition measures discourages the media from writing critically about the work of public figures and institutions, and that such decisions lead us to the introduction of censorship, which is not allowed and inadmissible in democratic societies.

In determining the measure of the judge Crnogorac, it is stated that "Avaz - roto press" is prohibited from publishing information about the private life of judge Ranko Debevec. In this regard, the Council recalls the provisions of the Declaration on freedom of political debate in the media of the Committee of Ministers in the Council of Europe: 
Article I - Freedom of expression and information in the media: „Pluralistic democracy and freedom of political debate require that the public is informed about issues of public importance, which includes the right of the media to transmit negative information and critical opinions about political figures and public officials, as well as the right of the public to know them.“
Article VII - Privacy of political figures and public officials: „The private and family life of political figures and public officials should be protected from media coverage under Article of this Convention. However, information about their private life may be disclosed when it is of direct public importance and it is reffering to the way in which they have performed or are performing their functions, seeking to avoid unnecessary harm to third parties. "When political or public figures draw the public's attention to the parts of their private lives, the media have the right to subject those segments to monitoring."
We also recall the opinion of the European Court, according to which previous restrictions, ie temporary measures prohibiting the publication of information, are only allowed in rare cases, when there is an urgent social need for such restrictions, such as preventing riots or crimes or protecting national security. The European Court is of the opinion that due to the potential danger to freedom of expression, and in these cases "extreme caution should be exercised".
This type of repression is absolutely contrary to the values of modern democratic societies and represents a violation of the right to freedom of expression and freedom to inform - it is written in the end of the statement of the Board of the Press and Online Media in B&amp;H.

We remind you that the introduction of prohibition measures discourages the media from writing critically about the work of public figures and institutions

Prime Minister of the Sarajevo Canton Edin Forto talked today with the Director of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Nancy Eslick about strategic projects in the Canton, including those in the field of energy efficiency, education, environmental protection, e-government, which they plan to realize together, said the SC press service.

Prime Minister Forto also emphasized that the SC Government is investing maximum efforts to procure coronavirus vaccines for the citizens of the canton.
The government, together with the Ministry of Health, has already made and developed an immunization plan against Covid-19 pandemic, which defines the target groups of the population, vaccination strategies, and communication with the public to accept the vaccination.
Eslick informed the Prime Minister that USAID was ready to procure IT equipment, laptops for primary and secondary schools, and it was agreed that a meeting with the Minister of Education Naida Hota-Muminović would be organized next week.
They also talked about the projects of the SC Government in the field of energy efficiency, limiting the use of coal, in order to reduce air pollution. Studies have shown that the biggest polluters are vehicles and individual fireplaces, and heating boilers.
Prime Minister Forto also spoke about the facilities on the mountains Bjelašnica and Igman, which are currently out of use, and for which it is necessary to draft international tenders, all with the aim of investing in tourism and said that USAID's assistance in this project would also be welcome.
-The work of USAID and its strategy is a partnership model, aimed at bringing the state of B&amp;H to a place where foreign assistance will no longer be needed because it will be able to function independently. We call it the path to self-sustainability.
We empower the country to achieve sustainable results at the local level, helping it to mobilize public and private revenues, strengthening local capacities, and accelerating the development driven by companies. This approach nurtures a stable, resilient and prosperous country that relies more on itself and gives priority to lasting partnerships- concluded Director Eslick.

Pfizer Inc said on Tuesday it expected to generate $15 billion, or about a quarter of its total revenue this year, from the sale of its COVID-19 vaccine that it has developed with German partner BioNTech.The drugmaker is striving to deliver two billion doses of the vaccine in 2021 at a breakneck pace as countries rush to sign supply deals in an effort to control a pandemic that has killed over 2 million people globally.
Pfizer has supplied 65 million doses globally and 29 million doses to the United States as of Jan. 31. It said it expects to supply 200 million doses to the U.S. government by the end of May.
To achieve the goal, it will have to deliver an average of around 10 million doses per week, which is more than double the rate Pfizer and BioNTech delivered doses to the United States through the end of January, according to a Reuters calculation.
Its supply, however, has faced delays in parts of Europe due to changes in manufacturing processes in order to boost production. BioNTech said on Monday the companies were back on track to meet their European timeline.
The vaccine was among the first to be authorized for emergency use in the United States and several other countries.
Pfizer forecast 2021 sales of between $59.4 billion and $61.4 billion, with the vaccine sales projected to contribute nearly 25% of the sales.
In contrast, 2020 sales from its best-selling pneumonia vaccine Prevnar 13 represented nearly 14% of Pfizer’s sales of $41.91 billion.
The company now expects full-year adjusted earnings of $3.10 to $3.20 per share, up from its prior forecast of $3 to $3.10 per share.
Excluding items, Pfizer earned 42 cents per share, but missed market expectation of 48 cents per share, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.

HDZ B&amp;H President Dragan Čović said yesterday that the new mayor of Mostar should be from the party that won the most votes. Today, SDA leader Bakir Izetbegović reacted to those statements.
As he stated in a Facebook post, there is no agreement between Dragan Čović and him regarding the election of the mayor of Mostar.
- Everything important for Mostar, including the election of leaders, will be agreed upon by the people of Mostar. As many times before, Dragan Čović is trying to present his wishes as an agreement. Once again, very clearly - there was no agreement, nor is there one. I have repeated several times, and I remain with that position, that it is time for the mayor of Mostar to be a Bosniak, and that should be Dr. Zlatko Guzin, who won the most individual votes in the elections - Izetbegović wrote on Facebook.

The expert body for the coordination and control of the implementation of the Intervening Measures Plan for Excessive Air Pollution in the Sarajevo Canton declared a state of preparedness in Sarajevo Canton due to increased air pollutant concentrations. 

The results of air quality monitoring by automated stations in the Sarajevo Canton have shown, during the previous day, the limit value for the concentrations of solid particles in the air was exceeded - PM10 of 50µg / m3, as well as exceeding the limit values for the sulfur dioxide of 125 µg / m3 in the area of Ilidža and Otoka.
By analyzing the state of air quality and meteorological conditions, the Expert Body concluded that the cause of high values of SO2 in the air in the Sarajevo Canton is pollution from the Kakanj Thermal Power Plant.
Other monitored pollutants did not record exceeding the daily limit values, the Press Service of the Sarajevo canton announced.

Repeat elections in Srebrenica and Doboj will be held on Sunday, February 21, while early elections in Travnik and Ustikolina will be held in April, it was concluded at today's session of the Central Election Commission (CEC) of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The CEC B&amp;H previously found in both Srebrenica and Doboj constituencies a large number of violations of the rules of the election process and the inability to exercise the right to vote of certain participants in the election process.
Elections in these two constituencies will be held again on the basis of the same candidate lists and the same Central Voters' Register that was used in the annulled elections.
When it comes to the elections in Travnik, it will be an early election due to the situation where the candidate for mayor of that municipality died during the election day, and for the municipality of Ustikolina-Foča where the elected candidate also died later on.
Since the candidates passed away, political entities will be able to submit new candidates and the process of registration and certification of political entities will be open as if they were new elections, but the mandate of the one elected will last until the expiration of the current mandate.
This means that the mandate of the mayor who will be elected in the early elections will run in parallel with all other mayors who were elected on November 15, 2020.
