Bosnian Serb leader, top war crimes suspect, arrested - International Herald Tribune

Bosnian Serb leader, top war crimes suspect, arrested - International Herald Tribune: "I

It comes just weeks after a new pro-western coalition government in Serbia was formed whose overriding goal is to bring Serbia into the European Union, the world's biggest trading bloc. The EU has made delivering indicted war criminals to the Hague a precondition for Serbia's membership.

The arrest was hailed by western diplomats as proof of Serbia's determination to link itself to the west and put the virulent nationalism of the past behind it. It has particular resonance because the new coalition government is the result of an alliance between the Democrats of President Boris Tadic and the Socialist Party of former Serbian strongman Slobodan Milosevic, which fought a war against the west in the 1990s, but has now vowed to bring Serbia back into the western fold.

about the Srebrenica massacre :
"The United Nations war crimes tribunal in The Hague indicted the former leader on July 24, 1995, just days after thousands of unarmed Bosnian men were executed in and around the Bosnian town of Screbrenica, a UN protected enclave which was overrun by Bosnian Serb military and police. Their forces were assisted closely by Serbian troops sent by Belgrade."

天阿,原來是UN保護區。 @@
原本以為已經安全卻被賽族軍攻陷進行的大屠殺。
R.I.P, hope there will be no war anymore...
