EU chief in Serbia vulin: War criminals must rise

EU chief in Serbia Emanuele Gaufret at the meeting with Interior Minister Alexander Vulin on Friday has told him that the EU has a clear position that war criminals should not be exalted or denied. That, following the war criminal Ratko Mladic's mural scandal in downtown Belgrade.

Voulin and Giaufret discussed recent events, where the EU chief in Serbia has clearly told him that they must refrain from exalting war criminals and denying war crimes to promote reconciliation, writes Klux.ba, the newspaper Express broadcast.

The European official also reminded him that nongovernmental organisations and organisations that engage in human rights play a role in raising awareness of civil and political rights, and that they should be allowed to work without stumbling.

Serbia's Interior Minister Aleksandar Vulin has said his ministry protects all citizens, including those in protest whether they were pro or opposed to the war criminal Mladic.

On Wednesday, several Serb activists have been attacked and later arrested after laying eggs in the direction of the war criminal's wall, Ratko Mladic.

Murali has been protected by police forces and members of right-wing movements in Serbia.

Regarding the incidents, former Serbian President Boris Tadic has also reacted, who has said that Vuciqi's Serbia is arresting people who oppose the murals of criminals, not those who make them murals.

That was after Serbian activist Aida Corovic has been attacked and then arrested after throwing eggs at war criminal Ratko Mladic's wall in Belgrade.

Tadic has voiced support for the activist, saying it is a practice in the Vuciqi regime.

“in Serbia and Vuciki are not arrested by those who make the murals of war criminals and celebrate for them, but those who oppose them. He supported Aida Corovovic and those who have the courage to oppose the regime celebrating crimes”, he said.
