Leftist, pro-Russian Serb, and Croatian nationalist candidates took the lead in Bosnia and Herzegovina's tripartite presidency election, according to late Sunday results covering 90% of polling stations. Voter turnout reached 42.2% across the country's two entities amid ongoing economic sluggishness. The outcome shapes future governance as the nation navigates stalled EU accession talks and energy infrastructure disputes involving Russia and the United States.
