Quotations

"The Trial Chamber finds Momčilo Perišić guilty. The Srebrenica tragedy stands as one of the darkest chapters in European history since World War Two. While the Srebrenica enclave was designated as a safe area, the VRS fiercely attacked civilians, as it had previously done in Sarajevo. The VRS’s victims were, again, numerous and defenceless. The Srebrenica atrocities shattered families and left behind countless broken homes." (Sept. 6, 2011 judgment, § 1837-8, 1861; photo ICTY)
