The Serbian People: Victims or Builders of Peace? The Battle for Srebrenica Truth Rages On!
As the anniversary of the Srebrenica tragedy is marked, Đorđe Milićević, the state secretary responsible for the diaspora, is standing firm on the Serbian people’s image. He claims that Serbs are neither genocidal nor criminal, but victims and builders of peace. Bold stance or just another political game?
Political Exploitation of Pain
Milićević sharply criticized the UN resolution on Srebrenica, calling it a political exploitation of pain rather than a step towards reconciliation. He insists that Serbia’s legal battle for the truth is not over and will continue alongside international partners.
Collective Guilt and Historical Revisionism
According to him, official Sarajevo persistently tries to impose collective guilt on the Serbian people. While facing attempts to revise history and relativize crimes against Serbs, Serbia remains firmly on the side of peace and dialogue.
Remembering for Peace, Not Division
Milićević calls for respect for all victims, regardless of nationality, religion, or origin. Memory, he says, should serve peace, not political score-settling.
Vučić and International Relations
At the same time, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić spoke with US Deputy Secretary of State Brendan Hanrahan about strategic partnership, cooperation in energy and artificial intelligence, and maintaining peace in the region. Vučić emphasized the importance of dialogue and respect for international law.
What Does This Mean for the Region?
While Serbia fights for its version of truth and justice, the region still burns with unresolved tensions. Will dialogue and respect for truth truly bring peace, or will we keep replaying the same film of hatred and accusations?
Conclusion
The Serbian people stand at a crossroads between accusations and self-defense. Is it possible for the truth about Srebrenica to be shared and for reconciliation to finally begin? Or will political games continue to hold the region captive to the past?
If you thought this was the end of the story, think again. This is just the start of a new round in the endless fight for truth and justice. So, what do you think? Is Serbia really a builder of peace, or just hiding behind that mask? Drop a comment and let the conversation roll!
