Bosnian ex-official alleges pre-election spoils-sharing among parties

Maja Gasal, a former Democratic Front member and representative, claims that behind closed doors Bosnian political actors divide ministerial spoils rather than discuss the state, ahead of the pre-election campaign starting in seven days. The claim is an insider allegation without corroborating evidence, but it highlights persistent clientelism in Bosnia's political system. This matters as it could influence voter perceptions and international scrutiny ahead of elections.
