Summary/Abstract: The European charter also determines the obligation of establishing and comprehensive helping to the functioning of the so called trans-border televisions. Countries which have their minorities or a part of nation, who is constitute and sovereign in other countries, have a right and obligation, together with those countries, to provide them the electronic media and a TV channel in their mother tongue. That right is thwarted and even legally forbidden in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Arranging of the electronic media space, which is in Bosnia and Herzegovina implemented by the international community, is a real presentation of the internal constitutional structure which is imposed by the same community. Processes of globalization and models of the liberal-democratic arrangement serve only as an excuse and justification of the complete political and cultural unitarianism of a country and unjust division of BiH in two entities, although it is a country of three sovereign nations.
