We received a promise that the flower of Srebrenica will be placed in the garden in front of the United Nations, the president of the Movement of the Mothers of the Srebrenica and Žepa Enclave Association, Munira Subašić, said in the “Jedan” interview, and announced that it could soon be on the agenda of the UN General Assembly Resolution on Srebrenica.
Munira Subašić reminds that due to Russia’s veto, the Resolution on Srebrenica was not adopted in the United Nations Security Council in 2015, and expects that such a resolution could be adopted in the UN General Assembly. The resolution, he says, would help prevent insults to mothers and protect the integrity of the judgments of the Hague Tribunal.
“That would mean both for us, but also for those who do not know the real truth. We know that young people in Serbia and in the Republika Srpska entity still do not know the real truth. It would be good to protect the verdicts handed down in the Hague Tribunal. Second, that we mothers are protected, that we are no longer insulted. What happened in 1995, no eraser in the world can erase it,” says Srebrenica mother Munira Subašić.
Lawsuits against Serbia when lawyers say
Mrs. Subašić is not sure when lawsuits will be initiated in which the families of the victims would request compensation from Serbia, but, she claims, some lawyers have suggested to them that the proceedings can be initiated immediately.
“We know what those places are from the verdict against Simatović and Stanišić. The Court of Justice said that Serbia is responsible for not preventing, and the army and police of Republika Srpska committed genocide. We have arguments, we have evidence, crime never expires, and we will see what our lawyers have to say. If they say to go, we will go,” says Munira Subašić.
Experts from Germany come to help with genocide denial lawsuits
The president of the Movement of Mothers of the Srebrenica and Žepa enclave association, Munira Subašić, told BHRT that the chief prosecutor of the Prosecutor’s Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Milenko Kajganić, op.a.) told her that some matters were not legally resolved properly, so that criminal proceedings could be initiated for denying the genocide. Nevertheless, she believes that the amendments to the Criminal Code of BiH on the prohibition and punishment of denial of genocide, which were announced by the former High Representative Valentin Inzko, have yielded results.
“Many have been silenced. I don’t know if you, as the media, noticed, maybe two, three remained to deny the genocide. We discussed it with the High Representative. He promised us both in Srebrenica and to me in Sarajevo, at the meeting, that he would bring some experts from Germany who would discuss with the Prosecutor’s Office how and in what manner the lawsuit would be filed,” says Subasic.
