#SERBIA: PM Vows To Smooth Tensions With Croatia After War Criminal Found Not Guilty, Plans Visit

[world politics news]


Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic pledged to visit Croatia to ease tensions that escalated between the two countries after the acquittal of hardline nationalist war crime defendant Vojislav Seselj. Croatia has been demanding that Serbia do more to prosecute crimes against its Croatian minority, and has vowed to obstruct Belgrade’s EU entry process if Serbia doesn't comply. Vucic dismisses these threats as "unreasonable blackmail," but says the two nations must work better together.
