Massive Human Rights Violations Cannot Be Called a “Heroic Struggle”
The Youth Initiative for Human Rights (YIHR Serbia) condemns the statements and actions of President Aleksandar Vučić, Prime Minister Macut and Minister of Justice Vujić, who exploited the poor health condition of Nebojša Pavković, a convicted war criminal, to celebrate him as a hero. It is unacceptable to use the application of basic human rights principles — which allow convicts to stay with their families and receive medical treatment in their home country due to serious health conditions — as a means to glorify and deny the massive human rights violations for which Pavković was convicted with final verdict. Such actions are in direct opposition to the principles of peace and stability. Instead of, as Minister Vujić said, “the state must stand behind Pavković, Karadžić and Mladić,” the Republic of Serbia must abide by the law, international obligations, and not war criminals.
