The international conference, scheduled for 8-9 January, is organised by the Zagreb-based Centre for Dealing with the Past "Documenta", the Investigation and Documentation Centre from Sarajevo, the Humanitarian Law Fund from Belgrade, and the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY).
Speaking on behalf of the association of Homeland War veterans, Davor Jasarevic said the event should not be held in Croatia and that it was Serbia that needed to come to terms with the past.
Jasarevic fears that the conference gathering "armchair activists" was aimed at blurring the notions of crimes committed in the war and war crimes.
