The Institute for Research of Genocide Canada (IGC) called Germany’s decision “another big victory for truth and justice”.
“This is another victory in the fight against genocide deniers; falsifiers of historical, judicial and scientific facts about the genocide; and glorifiers of convicted war criminals,” institute director Emir Ramic said in a statement.
“The voice of victims, witnesses to the genocide, and genocide researchers needs to be heard more loudly.
“IGC will continue to vigilantly follow activities that are directed against Bosnia and will insist on justice and truth each time,” Ramic said.
