US Embassy Sarajevo Statement on the Incident at the Potocari Commemoration

As Former President Clinton said in his remarks honoring the 20^th anniversary of the genocide in Srebrenica today, it took courage for PM Vucic to attend the commemoration. The U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo condemns the subsequent attack on the Prime Minister.   Many of the mourners were horrified by the violence and disheartened that it disrupted the solemnity of the anniversary.  The U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo shares that sentiment, and urges all to focus once again on the victims of the Srebrenica genocide and their families.
