In 1995, the Dayton Accords brought an end to the war in Bosnia—a conflict that had torn apart a nation and claimed hundreds of thousands of lives. Yet, beneath the veneer of diplomatic triumph lies a sobering truth: this agreement represents not a victory for peace, but a devastating capitulation to violence. By rewarding ethnic cleansing and genocide with political and territorial concessions, the accords undermined not only justice for Bosnia but also the very foundations of international law. The Dayton Agreement achieved peace, but at the cost of justice and long-term stability, by rewarding those who used violence to…
An organisation led by convicted war criminal Momcilo Krajisnik has received over 40,000 euros in public funding from the government in Bosnia’s Serb-dominated entity Republika Srpska. When Momcilo Krajisnik was released from prison in 2013 after serving his sentence for committing crimes against humanity during the Bosnian war, he said that he simply planned to go back to work at a petrol station run by his children in the Bosnian town of Pale. But since then the convicted war criminal, now 74, has taken a more prominent role in public life, becoming the first president of the Asocijacija Stvaraoci Republike Srpske (Creators…
PALE, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — Singing Serbian national songs and waving flags, more than 2,000 people welcomed convicted war criminal Momcilo Krajisnik home as a national hero on Friday evening. He returned to Bosnia after being granted early release from a British prison where he had served two thirds of his 20-year sentence. “It’s like a dream. You have no idea how beautiful this country is,” he told reporters. But he also said he does not understand what this giant party was about. “After all, I am a war criminal,” said 68-year-old Krajisnik. He was arrested in 2000 and convicted by…
A senior wartime leader of Bosnian Serbs, Momcilo Krajisnik, was sentenced yesterday to 27 years in prison for his role in the violent campaign to turn large parts of Bosnia into an ethnically pure Serbian region. Judges at the war crimes tribunal in The Hague concluded that Mr. Krajisnik had played a crucial role in that campaign during the Bosnian war, and they convicted him of crimes against humanity. But they acquitted him of two counts of genocide for lack of evidence, which was seen by some lawyers as a major setback for the tribunal’s prosecutors. The verdict and sentence…
This video provides a detailed overview of the Bosnian Genocide, which occurred during the Bosnian War in the 1990s. By covering the key events and causes behind the genocide, the video aims to raise awareness about this tragic and often overlooked period in European history.ConclusionThe Bosnian Genocide occurred within the context of the collapse of Yugoslavia and the ensuing wars. Between 1992 and 1995, systematic massacres were carried out against Bosniaks by Serbian forces, resulting in over 8,000 deaths. International efforts, including the Dayton Agreement in 1995, ended the conflict and led to the prosecution of many perpetrators.
Momcilo Krajisnik, a Bosnian Serb leader who was convicted of crimes against humanity for his involvement in the 1992-95 Bosnian war, died on Tuesday in a hospital in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. He was 75. The cause was the novel coronavirus, the hospital said. Mr. Krajisnik, a hard-line Serbian nationalist, was one of the most prominent politicians in the Bosnian war, which claimed 100,000 lives and displaced more than two million people. As the speaker of the separatist Bosnian Serb Parliament and a close adviser to the wartime leader Radovan Karadzic, he was among the leadership that oversaw plans to persecute…
Jungfrau A. Bietschhorn This region is a magnificent area with high mountain ranges, glaciers and is actually the most glaciated part of the European Alps. Visiting this area can be done relatively easy by car and if you want to go up, by train up to 3,400 metres above sea level, the highest train ride in Europe, the Jungfrau Railway is very impressive (and expensive!). The area is on the UNESCO World Heritage list because of its unique and wide range of flora and fauna and geological importance regarding the creating of the High Alps.
