He has defended his decision on military intervention in Kosovo, calling it a must to prevent a new genocide. The German diplomat has stated that he blames himself for having had to understand the true nature of conflict.
Fischer has said that if Slobodan Milosevic had put his agenda to the end, then the future of the EU and the expansion of the Western Balkans would be forgotten themes.
“in 1995, we witnessed the Srebrenica massacre in Bosnia. Later, he was known as a genocide. If I can blame myself for something in the case of Kosovo, it is only that I needed so long to understand the true nature of this conflict. I mean, the return of an extremely dangerous nationalism, ready for mass murder and terror. If then Serbian President Milosevic had advanced his agenda, then the future of the EU and enlargement in the Balkans could have been forgotten.”, the former German diplomat, quoted Panorama
