„Imaginile au fost șocante”. Reacția dură a președintei Comisiei UE la înmormântarea „Măcelarului Bosniei”

Ursula von der Leyen criticized the large turnout at Ratko Mladić's funeral, calling the images shocking and potentially harmful to Serbia's EU accession plans. She expressed regret over the presence of Serbian officials at the event, highlighting a failure to confront a dark chapter in European history. Thousands attended the funeral, demonstrating Mladić's continued reverence among many in Serbia, despite his war crimes convictions. The EU's expansion commissioner postponed her visit to Serbia due to concerns over the glorification of Mladić. The EU emphasized that any glorification of war criminals contradicts fundamental European values.
