Croatian journalist refuses Serbian award
Latin told journalists in Croatia his moral principles and human conscience prevented him from receiving the award from the hands of the UNS leaders, “who in the past proved to be celebrating crime, destruction and occupation of Vukovar.”“The problem is in the association’s leadership, which had a fairly shameful role during the occupation and destruction of Vukovar. I am simply put uncomfortable about receiving that award,” Latin said.
“I think it is more important to warn about these things and the freedom of the media, than to receive this award,” Latin concluded.
