THE NEVER-ENDING POLITICAL WAR OVER SREBRENICA!
Thought the Srebrenica topic was finally closed? Think again! The Serb member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Željka Cvijanović, and the Bosniak member, Denis Bećirović, have launched into a fierce political battle that looks like it will never end.
Bećirović: Politicizing victims with zero respect
Denis Bećirović accused Cvijanović of shameful politicization and a complete lack of respect for the victims of Srebrenica. He regularly promotes his views and recently made harsh criticisms against Republika Srpska and Serbia at a gathering in Potočari.
Cvijanović: Bećirović, a hate-monger and divider
But Cvijanović didn’t hold back! She called Bećirović a hate-monger, a politician of division, and a man of the past who never misses an opportunity to show hatred towards everything Serbian. According to her, the highest officials of Serbia and Republika Srpska reflect the will of the majority of the Serbian people, something Bećirović persistently ignores.
Vučić and Brnabić: Condolences or genocide denial?
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić expressed condolences to the families of the victims on the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre, but in English, which sparked mixed reactions. Meanwhile, Serbian National Assembly President Ana Brnabić stated that the Srebrenica massacre was not genocide, although it was a horrific war crime. This statement further fueled tensions and divided public opinion.
Dodik: UN resolution on Srebrenica as an attempt to weaken Serbs
Milorad Dodik, President of Republika Srpska, believes that the German sponsorship of the UN resolution on Srebrenica aims to weaken the position of the Serbian people. This statement further complicates the already tense political situation in the region.
What about respect for the victims?
While politicians exchange harsh words and accusations, the question of respect for the victims of Srebrenica remains in the background. Is it possible that victims are being used as political tools? Will true reconciliation ever come?
Conclusion
This political drama around Srebrenica shows how hard it is to overcome the past in the region. While some deny genocide, others use it for political points, and the victims remain in the shadow of political games.
