Serbs uncover Milosevic's wife's big family secret

Since the beginning of her life, Mira Markovic Milosevic has been led by the tragic fate of her mother, who has been a painful cause for many of her situations, depression and trends in her role. She died yesterday at the age of 76 in Russia. It was considered the right-wing side of Slobodan Milosevic, the most notorious World War II leader, whose policies worst affected Albanians, Bosniaks and Croats.

Mirina's mother, Vera Miletic, a 24-year-old Partisan, a French and literary student, was born on July 10, 1942, a girl who was later appointed after her nickname, Mira.

She was born in the forest and immediately gave Mirjana villagers to watch because the Partisans were under siege, fighting against Germans and Italians, and the Serbian and Croatian Nazis. When Mirjana was eight months old, the Gestapo arrested her mother, who was later killed in situations that remained mysterious to this day.

Peacekeepers were injured throughout the war, and even in the early years, they were called by the name “Baca”.

According to Communist tradition, however, Miletic was overlooked as a traitor, for it was said that during interrogation and torture she gave the names of her friends.

However, Mirjana believes that her mother was a heroic idealist who fought for her beliefs to the end. The tragic death of Vera Miletic and her uncertainty seem to have convinced Mirjana only of her love for communism.

“Negative personal experiences are not enough reason to undermine the entire ideology,” she said in an interview later published in her book, “Answer”.

She gave herself the name of her mother's war, Mira, and after seeing the image of a mother with a rose in her hair, she began to hold it until the flower became a laughingstock in Serbia in the 1990s.
