Dacic says Serbia will closely watch who will attend military parade in Croatia

BELGRADE, July 7 (Hina) - Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic said on Tuesday that Serbia would closely follow which countries would send their armies to take part in a military parade organised by Croatia, which will take place on 5 August, on the anniversary of Croatian military and police operation Storm, adding that Serbia will consider their participation in the parade as "an anti-Serbian attitude."

"Many countries have criticised Serbia for sending its army to the parade in Moscow and now armies of other countries are invited to the military parade in Croatia on August 5. We will follow with great attention who will parade around to honor Operation Storm during which several thousand Serbs were killed and persecuted. We will consider that as an anti-Serb attitude," Dacic told regional broadcaster N1.

"The participation of their armies in that parade will send a very clear negative message to Serbia. We will consider it an anti-Serb attitude," Dacic said.

He underscored that the past must not be forgotten but that lessons must be drawn from it, announcing a meeting of western Balkan countries and the EU in Vienna on August 27.

"How is it possible that we can be on our good behaviour there, but not here? Croatia and Serbia are an ever-lasting topic. Germany and France created the EU ten years after WWII and we will be determining who is less and who is more to blame for another 20 years," Dacic said, adding that Serbia and Croatia were wasting their time exchanging accusations.

Commenting on a U.N. Security Council vote on a resolution to condemn the Srebrenica massacre as genocide, marking the 20th anniversary of the mass killing, Dacic said he could not forecast whether or not Russia would veto the resolution, expressing confidence, however, that Security Council members would "realise that new divisions cannot lead reconciliation."

The UN Security Council vote on the Srebrenica resolution was delayed several hours on Tuesday as Britain and the United States tried to convince Russia not to veto the resolution, Reuters cited diplomats as saying.

Russia has deemed the British-drafted resolution unbalanced and does not want the 1995 massacre of 8,000 Muslim men and boys described as genocide. Instead it proposed condemning "the most serious crimes of concern to the international community."
