Ramic: “Supporting the Resolution is crucial in our common search for justice“

Director of the Institute For Research of Genocide Canada (IGK) Emir Ramic will attend the session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA) where the Resolution on the “International Day of Remembrance and Commemoration of the Genocide in Srebrenica” will be discussed and adopted. IGK actively participated in the lobbying process for the adoption of the Resolution. A special activity was in Canada which is the sponsor of the Resolution. Statement by IGK-Director Emir Ramic before leaving to New York: “Supporting the Resolution is crucial in our common search for justice, truth, a culture of remembrance and responsibility. By fighting for justice, we preserve peace. I ask all members of the UN General Assembly to support the Resolution. Let us reflect on the message of the Resolution as we seek invaluable support at the UN General Assembly. Because Srebrenica, BiH and the world need justice and recognition for the victims and survivors. In recent months, Srebrenica has been returned to the global international stage as a symbol of the fight for justice, truth, reconciliation, learning, prevention of genocide and ultimately a symbol of the fight against the denial of genocide and the glorification of convicted war criminals. No one can escape from that. Thank you to everyone in the world who raise their voices for the truth about the genocide in Srebrenica and justice for the victims of that terrible crime.”
