After attending the central event of marking the memory of the victims of the Ustasha pogrom in the Nazi Independent State of Croatia (NDH), the state that was established 75 years ago, the President of Republika Srpska MIlorad Dodik said that it is important to find the strength and provide financial means in order to declare the killing of Serbs in the NDH during the Second World War a genocide.
Dodik added that Jasenovac is the largest suffering of Serbs in history and that it is time for a film to be made about this camp, so that the future generations would understand what actually happened there.
President of RS also reminded that his family suffered in Jasenovac, as well as that there were no soldiers nor a single child was born in the border municipalities near Jasenovac for 25 years that came.
Within the cycle “The Time of Crime”, documentaries on the suffering in the NDH and the camp Jasenovac were screened yesterday: “Jasenovac” by Bogdan Žižić (1966), “Gospa-kraljica Hrvata” by Krsto Škanata (1992) and “Krv i pepeo Jasenovca” by Lordan Zafranović (1983).
At the gathering, the attendees were addressed by the Prime Minister of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić and the director of the Film Archive Jugoslav Pantelić.
