A Modern-day Massacre
The 1990s saw the biggest humanitarian crisis in Europe since the end of World War II when war erupted on the Balkan Peninsula. The war’s legacy continues to be a major and contested topic throughout the Balkans. The commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre is displayed here through speeches and photos. The issue of contestation over war memorials in other parts of the Balkans can be found in additional articles below, which include photos.
