Serbia "expects ICJ to truly be court of justice"
“I expect that the International Court of Justice will indeed be a court of justice,” Dacic told a regular, monthly press conference in Belgrade on Sunday.The judgment that should be rendered on February 3 will mark the end of a process that has been ongoing for the last 15-20 years, an opportunity for the two countries to leave the issue to the past and turn to the future, Dacic said.
“Since the Croatian side had shown no political will to jointly withdraw the charges,” the process before the ICJ in The Hague was the only solution, he said.
Stressing that Serbia condemns war crimes, Dacic observed that “we all need to continue with the prosecution of all those indicted for war crimes.”
The International Court of Justice in The Hague opened a public hearing in the case of mutual charges of genocide between Croatia and Serbia on March 3, 2014.
Croatia instituted the proceedings before the ICJ on July 2, 1999. The lawsuit alleges that genocide was committed in the territory of Croatia in the period from 1991 to 1995, when about 10,000 of people were killed, while more than 7,000 were detained in camps in Vukovar, the Knin region, eastern and western Slavonia and Dalmatia.
Serbia filed its counter-claim on January 4, 2010, accusing Croatia of genocide and ethnic cleansing affecting around 230,000 Serbs during Operation Storm, including the murder of about 7,000 Serbs and close to 2,000 missing.
