Luka Karadzic


Radovan Karadzic’s brother Luka, in an exclusive interview to RT, has said the 
only reason he can see why the leadership of Serbia “betrayed” his brother is 
“a pitiful $US 5 million”.

RT: Are you looking to the Russian media and public for any kind of help or 
assistance?

Luka Karadzic: I believe that Russia is the only country that we can rely on 
and pin our hopes on. It has always given a real picture of what is going on 
here, from the 90s until now. When, during the 90s Russia was weaker than it is 
now, we were also weak. But now Russia is not weak.

RT: How do you feel about Serbia today and in the future?

LK: This is a great defeat for both the Republic of Serbia and Republika 
Srpska. I deeply regret that the leadership of Serbia doesn’t have as much 
wisdom and courage to know that this is not a good move for the country.

But they will understand because all the West's promises were never kept. We 
witnessed it a couple of times, so why should we believe them now. The only 
reason I can see why they betrayed my brother was for a pitiful $US 5 million.

RT: Is the family alone or receiving some kind of support?

L.K.: I don’t think anybody will help the family because I haven’t heard any 
promises. Mr Lajcak, the High Representative of the international community in 
Bosnia-Herzegovina, said on TV that he had made the decision that the family 
not be allowed to come to Belgrade. He said: “I hold the documents and I am not 
going to let them leave Bosnia-Herzegovina.” That’s a demonstration of force, 
that’s the democracy that the West is trying to implement here in this region. 
I’m very sad because of that. I don’t know what to say because of that, we 
can’t change anything because of that. We are helpless.

RT: Are you expecting any kind of assistance or involvement from the government 
of Republika Srpska?

L.K.: I do not doubt the intention of Dodik (the Prime Minister of Republika 
Srpska) to help the family. He said they should be allowed to get the documents 
back from the UN to come to Belgrade. I don’t doubt Dodik’s intentions and 
goodwill. But I doubt his power to help us. Mr Lajcak is judge and jury, 
meaning he says you’re guilty and why.
