The government of Aleksandar Vučić not only relativizes crime and criminals but also consciously glorifies them. Veselin Šljivančanin, straight from The Hague, became a favorite guest of nationalist forums that are often organized at Belgrade University, and for his merits in crime he was awarded membership in the Main Board of the SNS – director Janko Baljak told Danas, commenting on the presence of a convicted war criminal in the state delegation. , who laid a wreath at the monument to the girl Milica Rakić, who died in the NATO bombing of the FRY in 1999.
As he adds, the bestial rehabilitation of the most responsible members of Slobodan Milošević’s regime is especially painful in days when memories of the NATO bombing of Serbia are evoked.
He reminds that the media leverage of the Milosevic regime is also reflected in the fact that the former journalist of the Radio-television of Serbia, during the war and the Milosevic regime, Milorad Komrakov, as the host of the morning program, mocks the victims of the people killed in the bombing of the RTS building.
– How far this cruel bestiality goes, it wouldn’t surprise me even if Dragoljub Milanović, who was the director at the time of the death of the television worker, appeared in front of the RTS building and at the commemorative meeting on April 23. That would be completely similar to this government – concludes Janko Baljak.
Let us recall that Milanović is suspected of deliberately not fully evacuating the RTS building, despite the warning and the fact that he knew that NATO bombs would fall on it. Then 17 workers, mostly technical staff, lost their lives.
According to Bojan Pajtić, a professor at the Faculty of Law in Novi Sad, the appearance of the convicted war criminal Veselin Šljivančanin, a member of the GO SNS, at the laying of a wreath at the monument to the victim of the NATO bombing – clearly shows that the country whose official delegation includes a person convicted by an international tribunal – is condemned to the contempt and disgust of the whole world.
– Politicians who are not in government positions can represent whatever values they want. However, when they represent the state, they have no right to harm it. It is clear that the country in whose official delegation there is a person condemned by the international tribunal – condemned to the contempt and outrage of the whole world – says Pajtić.
As our interlocutor adds, this also sends a message to the region – we do not want reconciliation, we are the same ones from the nineties and we would again spill other people’s blood for our own interests.
– With this kind of behavior, the officials are making Serbia a pariah of Europe and the world, just to grab some small points for the SNS from the voters – concludes Pajtić.
