Saop?eno je da je predsjednik Republike Hrvatske Zoran Milanovi? davao izjave u kojima je negirao i umanjivao zna?aj genocida u Srebrenici po?injen nad bošnja?kim stanovništvom 1995. godine. Navodne izjave izre?ene su na sastanku regionalnih ?elnika, uklju?uju?i srpskog ?lana tro?lanog Predsjedništva Bosne i Hercegovine i lidera manjeg entiteta Rs u BiH, Milorada Dodika. Dodik je samoprozvani saveznik Vladimira Putina i serijski negator genocida, a uz to je i prvak ruskog uplitanja na Zapadnom Balkanu. Manji entitet Rs u BiH, rukovodstvo Republike srpske, uz pomo? i potporu Republike Srbije, po?inilo je genocid u Srebrenici.
Papagajsko ponavljanje osje?aja koje dugo zastupaju subjekti koje podržava Rusija ima za cilj politi?ku destabilizaciju regije i dodatno sprje?ava njezine integracije u EU i NATO. Implikacije predsjednika države ?lanice NATO-a i EU-a koji javno izražava poricanje i relativizaciju genocida u trenutnoj politi?koj klimi Zapadnog Balkana i Europe u cjelini se ne mogu precijeniti. U ovom razdoblju nestabilnosti u široj regiji posebno zabrinjava i ?injenica da ove izjave nisu izolirani incident i da predstavljaju dugu povijest takvih izjava predsjednika Republike Hrvatske Zorana Milanovi?a.
Molimo Vas za stav Vaše organizacije povodom ovakvih izjava države ?lanice NATO-a u kojima se negira i umanjuje pravno priznati i presu?eni Genocid u Srebrenici.
It has been reported that the President of the Republic of Croatia, Zoran Milanovi?, has made statements denying and downplaying the Genocide in Srebrenica committed against the Bosniak population in 1995. The alleged remarks were made while attending a meeting of regional leaders, including the Bosnian Serb entity leader, Milorad Dodik. Dodik is a self-avowed ally of Vladimir Putin and a serial genocide denier, in addition to being the champion of Russian interference in the Western Balkans. The smaller entity, Republika Srpska's leadership, with the help and support from Serbia, perpetrated the genocide.
The parroting of sentiments long espoused by Russian-backed entities seeks the political destabilization of the region and further prevents its integration into the EU and NATO. The implications of a President of a NATO and EU member state publicly expressing genocide denial and relativization in the current political climate of the Western Balkans and Europe as a whole cannot be overstated. The fact that these statements are not an isolated incident and represent a long history of such statements by the President of the Republic of Croatia, Zoran Milanovi?, is also particularly worrying during this period of instability in the wider region.
We ask for your organization's position regarding these statements by the NATO member state denying and downplaying the legally recognized and adjudicated Genocide in Srebrenica.
