BELGRADE, July 9 (Hina) - The government of the northern Serbian province of Vojvodina on Saturday unanimously adopted a conclusion on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre, condemning the war crimes which took place on the territory of socialist Yugoslavia.

"We condemn all the crimes committed during the wars on the territory of the former Yugoslavia and we pay our respects to the victims of those crimes -- Bosniaks, Serbs, Croats, Albanians and others," read the conclusion.

It added that "the responsibility for war crimes and genocide is individual and not collective, and the criminal, political and moral responsibility, on all sides in the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia, lies not only with those who killed or ordered to kill, but with all those who encouraged, approved or concealed the crimes or the immediate perpetrators or those who ordered those crimes".

The Vojvodina government said the vicious circle of revenge, accusations and mistrust could be broken only by comprehensively facing war crimes and by punishing all culprits.

"We are confident that the peoples, regions and states of the Western Balkans will enter the common European house only by strengthening peace, security, mutual trust and cooperation," read the conclusion.

The Vojvodina government is made up of the Democratic Party, Nenad Canak's League of Social Democrats, Bogoljub Karic's Power of Serbia Movement, and Jozef Kasa's Democratic Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians.

In a statement on the occasion of the Srebrenica anniversary, Canak said Serbia would not become a democracy until it admitted to the crimes that were committed in the name of the state and the Serb people.

Canak said the incumbent Serbian government was not ready to face the crimes committed in the former Yugoslavia.

The Serbian government on Thursday condemned "all war crimes committed in the Yugoslav wars," highlighting the crimes in Srebrenica and Bratunac. To date, the Serbian parliament has not agreed a declaration which would slam the July 1995 massacre of nearly 8,000 Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica.
