Sarajevo: Nationalist candidates from Bosnia's Croat, Muslim and Serb communities won the country's three-man presidency, election results showed on Monday, underlining continued ethnic strains 20 years after the Balkan state's civil war.

With more than 90 percent of votes counted, Bakir Izetbegovic of the main Muslim SDA party and Dragan Covic of the Croat HDZ BIH party had won seats in the collective presidency.

The Serb seat remained undecided, with two nationalist candidates -- opposition figure Mladen Ivanic and Zeljka Cvijanovic, the candidate of the Bosnian Serb ruling SNSD party, neck and neck.
