"Victims of NATO must not be forgotten"

BELGRADE -- Aleksandar Vulin addressed a commemorative gathering in Belgrade late on Tuesday to say that the victims of NATO's aggression must not be forgotten.

NATO has not apologized for bombing Serbia in 1999, noted the minister in charge of Kosovo in Serbia's caretaker government.

"One day, when you young people are asked whether Serbia should join NATO, whether we would do to others what has been done to us, do not explain, write books, make movies, say only the name of Bojana Tošović, and say that NATO killed her, and that NATO is evil," Vulin said while addressing students at the Faculty of Law.

Tošović was a six-month old baby from Merdare who died in her father’s arms after being hit by shrapnel from NATO missiles.

Vulin said that "some decided to speak out 15 years after Bojana’s death, faced with the consequences of the fire they fueled in Kosovo and now being able to hear its echoes in the Crimea, northern Italy, Catalonia and Scotland."

“They told us and admitted that they bombed us with depleted uranium and unloaded tons of cluster bombs. They did not say where. I want them to say where they poisoned our waters and air, so we can purge the evil so no child should suffer from it. They did not say that they were sorry, but they did say everything else,” said Vulin.

He also addressed a controversy regarding a message reposted on the official account of NATO's spokesperson Oleana Lungescu on Monday, the day Serbia was marking 15 years since it came under attack, war and remembered its victims.

"I am disgusted by you, Oleana Lungescu, I am honestly disgusted," Vulin said.
