The Serbian Parliament passed a resolution yesterday (March 30, 2010) condemning the 1995 massacre of some 8,000 Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica, according to the Serbianna website.
The resolution states, "The parliament of Serbia strongly condemns the crime committed against the Bosnian Muslim population of Srebrenica in July 1995, as determined by the International Court of Justice ruling."
Prior to suffering the military defeat, Bosnian Muslims exterminated all ethnic Serbs in and around Srebrenica. No Bosnian Muslim was convicted nor have they apologized for murdering Serbs.
Boris Tadic, Serbia's president, said today that this "historic" parliamentary resolution "clearly shows that Serbs are distancing themselves from that monstrous crime." He added, its adoption "brings encouragement to the state to continue to work to eventually arrest Mladic."
Ratko Mladic, who led Serb troops during the 1995 massacre, is Europe's most-wanted war crimes fugitive. He has been on the run since 1995.
