Former Leader of Plaid Cymru
The genocide committed in Srebrenica must never be forgotten. The figures are sobering – 8,372 men and boys were slaughtered for their religion.
“I applaud the many educational programmes that remind people about the horrors committed in Srebenica. As uncomfortable as it may be, it is through remembering and educating new generations about the facts of what happened on July 11th 1995 that we reduce the risk of further genocide happening.
Last year we opened the very first Virtual Exhibition on the Bosnian genocide, this year we are expanding the exhibition and building a long-lasting resource for all. Creativity allows us to express our pain, grief, and trauma in many ways and I encourage all to submit your work! https://t.co/fVtkyNAiRH

Bosnia has seen several incidents of the glorification of war criminals in recent days. These incidents appear to be part of a longer term pattern that are fuelled by local organisations.
