Stevandić criticized the veto as unconstitutional and accused external influences of orchestrating efforts to undermine the RS.

Odluka o imenovanju stranih stručnjaka u Povjerenstvo za zaštitu nacionalnih spomenika BiH bila je pod upitom jer je državni vrh iz RS, uključujući Željka Cvijanović, dao veto. Predsjedatelj Predsjedništva BiH Denisa Bećirović podnio je zahtjev za ispitivanje ustavnosti odluke, argumentirajući da je imenovanje članova povjerenstva pitanje unutarnje politike.
