Belgrade-Sana

Aleksandar Vucic, President of the Republic of Serbia, confirmed that NATO, led by the United States, committed the most heinous crimes against civilians during the aggression launched against the former Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1999 without a legitimate mandate from the UN Security Council.

Vucic said in a speech during an official event in the Serbian city of Krejevo to commemorate the 23rd anniversary of the victims of the NATO bombing of the former Yugoslavia, "All that the Serbian people wanted was to stay in their homeland and protect their homes in front of 19 NATO countries that wanted to show their arrogance to bring them to their knees." Pointing out that the NATO countries, with their military equipment, killed the lives of thousands of innocent people.

Vucic pointed out that NATO launched this aggression against a sovereign country and one of the founders of the United Nations without obtaining the approval of the UN Security Council and the international organization, and said, “The NATO countries do not remember that day, and I ask them to invite us only on this day, at least, to remember thousands of The people you killed and not to insult our victims, as you have prevented us for years from saying that what they did is aggression, and they ask us every year to kneel before them and apologize to them for attacking us, killing us and killing our children. For our country and our people.”

Vucic called on the international community to preserve the lives of the Serbian people and end conflicts, stressing that his country is committed to maintaining peace, and said, "Those who think they will kill us and expel our people should know that this will not happen, calling on the world to end conflicts."

In this context, Ambassador Roxa Neda Nincic, representative of Serbia to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, indicated at the meeting of the Permanent Council of the Organization that was held in Vienna yesterday that the horrors of the illegal military aggression of NATO are still present in the memory of the Serbian people, stressing at the same time her country's commitment to establishing peace and stability Preserving the unity and independence of its territory.

In turn, Liliana Smilewicz, a journalist for the Nedellink magazine, confirmed in an interview broadcast on Serbian television that the US media and public opinion had forgotten the bombing of the former Yugoslavia, as if they had erased it from their collective memory.

It is noteworthy that in March 1999, NATO took the armed confrontation between the Albanian separatists in Kosovo and the Serbian army and police as an excuse to bomb the former Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, which at that time included Serbia and Montenegro, ignoring the position of the Security Council, which led, according to the Serbian government, to the deaths of thousands of innocent people.
