Yugoslavia in World War II

Strahinja Sekulic, who heads the Restitution Agency, has told this to Prva TV.

The Ustasha regime was in power in the Nazi-allied Independent State of Croatia (NDH), while the SS division in question was formed by ethnic Germans from in northern Serbia, and elsewhere in the region.

The same is true of "cooperation and peace with everyone, because only in peace can they continue to build and elevate our one and only Serbia," Vucic said in Belgrade, according to the Serbian government.

Legacy questions about the property of the former Yugoslav People's Army may remain unresolved after Thursday's meeting between representatives of the five agreed successor states was postponed.

Leaders of Serbian Orthodox congregations and Serbian-American organisations have appealed to Congress members and the US administration to protect the rights of Kosovo Serbs and expressed "strong opposition to the proposed ethnic partition of the territory", Serbian media reported on Monday.

The local assembly in Serbia’s second city, Novi Sad, has been accused of distorting history for voting to erect a monument to the alleged victims of crimes by Yugoslav Communist Partisan forces.

The Belgrade Higher Court has dismissed the request of Milan Nedic's family to rehabilitate the leader of Serbia’s Nazi-backed World War II puppet government.

According to reports, rescuers are finding the victims all the time, in the streets, and in their cars and homes.

26 bodies have been found in the yard of a villa in the resort of Mati, near Athens. There are many children among the more than 100 injured people, international media are reporting.

The Montenegrin authorities said they will change the law to impose penalties on anyone who stages commemorative events that praise war crimes convicts such as World War II Chetnik leaders.

Ustashas were in power in the Nazi-allied Independent State of Croatia (1941-1945) that had death camps for Serbs, Jews, and Roma, including in Jasenovac.

The Serbian Orthodox Church’s plan to hold a mass for the killed leader of the World War II Chetnik movement, Draza Mihailovic, has been called a “provocation” by the Montenegrin authorities.
