The issue of missing persons is always one related to crimes committed during the war, and once you face those, you become accountable and the prosecution of those who committed the crimes begins. The issue of missing persons is one authorities avoid precisely due to the lack of will to have the perpetrators brought to justice, says Serbeze Haxhiaj, journalist for Balkan Investigative Reporting Network (BIRN) Kosovo during the debate about missing persons held by the Youth Initiative for Human Rights on occasion of International Day of the Disappeared on August 30.
Activists of the Youth Initiative for Human Rights today, with a symbolic action of laying flowers in front of the entrance to the Belarusian Embassy in Belgrade, expressed support for the citizens of Belarus and said that there is no friendship with Lukashenko who sacrifices lives and freedoms to survive forever in power.
Civil society organizations call on the deputies from the Democratic Party of Kosovo, specifically the proposer of the draft-law Mr. Gazmend Bytyqi to withdraw the Draft-law on the Protection of KLA War Values.
The Youth Initiative for Human Rights in Croatia has sent an open letter to the President of the Republic of Croatia Zoran Milanović on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Storm Operation.
Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković dedicated a part of yesterday’s speech on the occasion of the celebration the Victory and Homeland Thanksgiving Day to paying respect to the victims of war crimes committed by the Croatian side. He has thus given a great contribution to the conciliatory marking of the 25th anniversary of the Operation Storm.
