Vulin: Remembrance Day - way to say Storm is crime

Marking the Remembrance Day of the suffering and exile of Serbs is a manner to say to the world that Croatia's military and police action Storm is a crime and pogrom of Serbs, Serbian Minister of Labour and Social Affairs Aleksandar Vulin said on Monday, noting that there can be no good neighbourly relations without the truth

The Remembrance Day and the 20th anniversary of Serb suffering in Operation Storm will be marked on Tuesday evening by a central event at the bridge in Sremska Raca on the Drina River on the border between Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina across which Serb refugees arrived to Serbia from Croatia since Operation Storm began on August 5, 1995.

This is our way to say to the world just how much this pains us, and to say that Operation Storm constitutes a crime and pogrom from our point of view, Vulin told Tanjug.

ALL OF SERBIA WILL STOP: Serbs are lighting CANDLES, CROSSING THEMSELVES AND PRAYING for all the victims that were killed by the CROATIAN KNIFE in “Operation Storm”!

Vulin said that there can be no good neighbourly relations or ties between Serbia and Croatia without the truth, which has always been 'therapeutic and good'.

The truth is what it is, 250,000 Serbs have been permanently banished and are living in Serbia, and they and our nation are the reason why we must never forget this date, Vulin said.
