Yugoslavia Trial Explained

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 มิ.ย. 2024
- After the Yugoslavia War ended, there was a trial to put criminals in prison. This Trial was the Yugoslavia Trial, or Yugoslavia Tribunal. This video looks at the process of gathering evidence, preparing a court case, and how the defendants were sentenced. This is a continuation on my videos on the Tokyo Tribunal, or Tokyo Trial. And the Nuremberg Trial, or Nuremberg Tribunal.

It’s so crazy how people can commit literal war crimes and crimes against humanity and get lesser sentences than many other crimes
I was just thinking about this. If some random civillian went and killed 200 people in an ethnic cleansing attempt theyd get life in prison easily. Do it for a government and you get 5 years
Right? Mandatory minimums on recreational drug usage here in some US states meant happy weed smokers minding their own business got more time than people who made it their business to torture and/or kill as many people they could get away with...and then some. What a wonderful world...
Like how can the punishment for literal genocide be less than life in prison?
Netanyahu, for example.
@@santiagolara1699It’s not like they are shooting every person they see and sending them to work camps.
A tribunal like this was truly a first in human history. If you consider the relationship between countries throughout history, the fact that we have reached a point where there can be an international court with judicial authority is astonishing.
That was at the peak power of usa nato and un now everyone everywhere across the world does various human crimes from Ukraine to Myanmar to Sudan to Ethiopia to Israel and Palestine yet international court can't do anything now
You also forgot Rwanda 🇷🇼 in that same decade.
He just talked about it being a first which is true, the Rwandan Court was formed a year after the Yugo one

imagine getting 20 years for committing a genocide. that’s insane.
Imagine getting zero years and the full backing of “the free world”. Israel and the west have a bloody history of genocide. No one cares because brown people are being killed.
Many of Bosniak and Albanian war criminals got away with it entirely.. It is a war crime only if you lose..
One of the Serbian commanders ''Vinko Pandurevic'' who was in Srebrenica when people were killed got out of jail in 10 years. He claims that military units did not get order to kill civilians or prisoners but to attack the retreating Brigade, he was one of few that complained when he found out that prisoners were killed, and he claims that people from security services were in that area.
Babe, wake up, new war atrocities trial video by History Scope just dropped!
I remember the joke you made in your "breakup of yugoslavia" video about making the videp when the finaly guy finished his appeal. Never tought i would see this. Good video.
Same lmao.
That wasn't a joke. I've been waiting for this video for years. :D
We've still got the Rwanda Tribunal to cover in the future as well... But we're going to wait a while with that. These videos are mentally quite taxing to make due to the heavy subject matter.
@@HistoryScope If you're going to cover the Rwanda Tribunal, you should also make a video on the Khmer Rouge Tribunal (ECCC). Plagued by corruption and mismanagement from the start, it's a perfect example of "too little too late", in which a handful of geriatrics were given life sentences for war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity.
@@HistoryScope🗿
Radovan Karadžić was President of Srpska, a Serb-majority region within Bosnia and Herzegovina which tried to break away to unify with Serbia during the Bosnian War. He was not the President of Bosnia as stated at 6:58. He commanded the army of Srpska, which committed war crimes on the Bosniak people, not the Bosnian army.
You're also wrong. The commander of the Army of Republika Srpska was Ratko Mladić, who was also convicted for war crimes. Also it wasn't just Bosniaks that suffered because of the VRS (Army of Republika Srpska), it was also the Bosnian Croats.

It's absolutely insane how recent much of this is
Yes, it's so very recent. I was in highschool when this was going on, and my mind couldn't compute how something like this could possibly be happening in the modern world. I had the same thoughts about the events taking place in Rwanda a few years earlier. Sadly, it seems that the attitudes and way of thinking that facilitated these atrocities are so deeply ingrained in human nature, we'll not be free of them for the foreseeable future. It's mind boggling.
My family was from Yugoslavia, more specifically, my moms Biological dad. He (while on a temporary visit) impregnated my biological grandmother who put her up for adoption in America, and he went back to Yugoslavia and never returned. We assume he was killed.
Why 😂
it shouldn't be china has their native uygher population in "detention camps"
its happening right now in Palestine 😞
Inaccuracy at 0:32:
Croatia and Slovenia are swapped. The red and blue in Slovenia are also swapped.
True
Civics teacher here. I want to point out a mistake made in this video. The jurisdiction of international law when it comes to human rights is universal. A state does not need to be a signatory for its authorities to be tried as war criminals. Human rights are universal and directly binding. Of course, the enforcement in non-signatory-states is difficult, but the principle still stands.
I think a good way to understand it as follows: the international treaties do not create human rights. Human rights exist by virtue of humans existing. Rather, the treaties *affirm* the existence of these human rights and the crimes that precede from the abuse thereof.
One more thing. This isn't a mistake, but still something I would've liked to see. In order to the Yugoslav Trial in the proper historical context, I think it would've been good to name the number of casualities in the conflict, in particular the camps. This is important. Did 1000 people die? 10,000? A million? That scope does add to the understanding of the evil behind the crimes committed. 130,000-140,000 people died and 4,000,000+ people were displaced. That is roughly equivalent to the population of modern croatia.
The mistake doesn't mess up the explanation of what the Yugoslav trial was, so I don't think the video is a failure. On the contrary, it's an excellent video that does a good job explaining the trial. Good job!
I wish I was this eloquent
Spy gaming tf2
huh, I actually completely forgot to state of total death toll...
And I tried to simplify the human rights treaties a bit. While you are correct, I did not think it was as important as other parts of the video so I simplified it to "they signed the treaties, therefore they couldn't claim it wasn't illegal" because that was a common argument in the Tokyo and Nuremberg Trials.
It's a bit of an arbitrary point you made since, in an academic sense, international law doesn't even really exist in the way that we traditionally view law. In a global order defined by a state of anarchy there is no established authority with the capability to define the jurisdiction of international law. To say that jurisdiction is universal regarding human rights is entirely aspirational.
@@Doomer_Optimist Imagine for a moment that all states were abolished and no sovereign entities were established to replace them. By your logic, humans rights would then also cease to exist. This simply cannot be true. States do not create human rights, they protect them.
Sadly you didn't mention the very interesting trial of Vojislav Seselj, he's like the most famous case of the tribunal, there are compilations of him making fun out of the judges, insulting them in various creative ways for which he got his sentence prolonged multiple times.

Bro, straight up said Karadžić is Bosnian 💀
He was born in Montenegro, has Bosnian citizenship and is ethnically Serbian... saying he is each of these countries' Nationalities is technically correct. There was no mistake in the video, technically.
Though I get your point. He was Serbian despite his Bosnian citizenship because ethnicity is more important that where you are born to many (if not all) former Yugoslovians.

Speaking of post war trials, one country that I'm surprised didn't face any trials after WW2 was Italy. After all, in the second Italo-Ethiopian war from 1935-36, Italian forces used banned chemical weapons like Mustard Gas to subdue the Ethiopian forces. Yet there (as far as I'm aware) there weren't any trials for Italians post WW2
That's a good point. I did a bit of googling and apparently the British did plan on such a trial, however, concluded that they wanted to keep Italy as a friend during the Cold War. And putting the Italians on trial after they switched sides might have caused Italy to switch sides. So they cancelled these plans.
(don't take my word on this for 100%, I just googled it for 5 minutes)
@@HistoryScopesimilar happened in the Tokyo trials , America need to keep Japan as an ally in the Cold War and didn’t put the emperor on trial. The Tokyo trials are also rushed so a lot of politicians who are part of the imperial Japanese govt are still in power.
Unlike Germany, the Nazi structure is dismantled but not in Japan. In retrospect it’s was the right thing to do, better save the Japan from future communism than dwelling in the imperialism past
@HistoryScope that logic does make sense and I completely understand why you're being cautious about it. After all, the famous American journalist, Bob Woodward, said when working with Carl Burnstein on a Watergate story which turned out to be completely wrong:
"We had two or three (sources) and we had some logic and as we know, logic isn't a source,"
These videos on various war trails are absolutely fantastic! Stayed up late after work to watch this!
I am glad to see your back with the format that introduced me to your channel!
I've been waiting for a vid like this for a while, great breakdown!
It's fascinating to think about all the precedents set by this process and the many organizations and standards which will be able to trace their existence back to all this. I Imagine that if humanity gets its act together and expands through the stars, systems of planetary and even interplanetary justice will still be citing cases and events from the 90s and 00s when passing rulings and making decisions, similar to how we cite Roman and Napoleonic law today.

You do realise that there was a point where the Serb ethnicity didn't exist either, and then it was created just the same, right? You do understand that Serbs weren't actually created by god himself, right?

In the early noughties, the Hague trials were on instead of educational programs in ex-Yugoslavia.
Great video, however, there are some mistakes. Radovan Karadzic was the president of the Republika Srpska, which is a entity inside Bosnia predominantely inhabited by Serbs now, and also Srebrenica massacre death toll was around 8732 confirmed bodies, dont know if this is the exact number but it is very close to this, and many mass graves are still sometimes found in ex-Yugoslav republics.
I love your animation style btw
also, Ratko Mladić was the main General of the Army of Republika Srpska, not the army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
do you only have victims, where are the Serbian victims? Where is Jasenovac? Why are you such bigots?
As a Bosnian i have to say that us using a single number is incorrect(i understand the meaning of it)the total number in my opinion is more and we still have not discovered the true number and sadly maybe never will.

What a great video! Good job!
A mistake I have to point out: you didn't make the distinction of bosnian=\=bosniak. The bosnian army was mainly controlled by the bosnian serbs, who genocided bosniaks (and croats), but since you don't make the distinction, you've basically said in the Srebrenica example that bosnians of the bosnian army killed bosnians. It completely obscures what happened and creates confusion.
Yeah that really threw me when I was listening. My dad was drafted into the Bosnian army fighting the Serbs and him and his family ended up in a concentration camp. The concentration camp guarded by his neighbours and friends from school. I wish he'd emphasised that more.

i would firstly like to commend you on the production and publication of this video on a cause which is very dear to me, seeing as i have written at least a few papers on this topic.
however, is it not worth mentioning the people that people within the ICTY have stated that they WISHED to have prosecuted? slobodan milosevic was at least tried, but franjo tudjman was not, which is important because they committed the same level of attrocity in one another's lands. will you make a video on this?
Tuđman was charged by the leader of the Croatian opposition, Dobroslav Paraga, for attempting to divide Bosnia with Milošević. He did not face trial because he died of cancer, while still being president.
However i dont recall Croatian soldiers bombing Serbian cities to the ground, in the same way that the Serbs did to Vukovar.

Those stories about the Defense Lawyers are really annoying. You can't have justice if Defense and Prosecution aren't on the same footing. This isn't just about not putting innocent people into prison (I highly doubt that many, if any, of the people would be considered are innocent), but also about preventing the potential for people to claim that the Defense couldn't do it's job. If an international tribunal isn't clearly trustworthy, it massively loses it's value.

How was the Croatian general caught in Canary islands in 2015 and released in 2012?
very good video
Very nice video and thank you for that. I have much learned from your video.
Something to correct:
- Radovan Karadžić was not the president of Bosnia but the president of Republic of Srpska. Therefore he was not the supreme commander of the Bosnian Army but the supreme commander of the Army of the Republic of Srpska (VRS - Vojska Republike Srpske)
- The same goes for Ratko Mladić and Dragoljub Kunarac. They were VRS officers.
There was no "Bosnian Army" per se. There were three national armies fighting in the conflict: 1) the previously mentioned VRS, 2) Army of the Republic of Bosnia & Herzegovina (ARBIH - Armija Republike Bosne i Hercegovine), 3) Croatian Defence Council (HVO - Hrvatsko vijeće obrane)

Great job and keep up the good work! However a few statements are wrong (as I can see others have mentioned them in the comments so I won’t repeat) and some people might even find them offensive. Maybe even worth editing a few things in the video.. You can never be too careful when posting a video about Yugoslav wars.. speaking as a Croat.
I didn’t watch this when it first came out because I saw the thumbnail and thought it was the Nuremberg trial video
INTERESTING!
There are people questioning how you can commit literal war crimes and crimes against humanity and get lesser sentences than theft or a single murder charge.
It mostly has to do with the legal systems that are used in the international tribunal. America uses a legal system called "Common Law" in this system sentences are very very long and harsher, but convicts can appeal their sentences with good behavior and be left out a lot sooner. The legal system that the international court (and also most of the world) uses is called "Civil law", in this system sentences are shorter but are really hard to appeal to them unless is health related or their is a particular reason.
So for example you might get 65+ years or even life imprisonment for manslaughter in "Common Law "countries (basically USA, Canada and Australia) but can get your sentence dropped to 17 years if you have good behavior. While in the "Civil law" system (Mostly Europe, Latin America and the vast majority of Asia) you get a 15 year sentence for manslaughter but you are almost guaranteed to serve the entirety of that time and it could even increase due to bad behavior.
Both systems have valid reasons, and in a personal level I don't know if there is a "better legal system" because it mostly boils down to culture and history of those countries. Hope this clears a few things... 😀

As somebody from Bosnia and Herzegovina, I would love to hear an "outsiders" perspective on the Dayton Agreement, because at best, what I hear and read about it BH, is that it was grossly naive, sentencing BH to now decades of dysfunctionality, and at worst, that it was designed like that in the aftermath of the Red Scare, since these teritories were communist for two-three generations. If somebody could point me to anybody from the outside discussing this problem, they would have my grattitude.
My humble opinion from "outsiders": dayton agreements are disastrous for BH. It didn't end or solve the conflict in any way, it just frozen the confiict. And now as you said, BH is completly dysfunctional state because of that and it hurts my heart to see BH like that. It's like US didn't care about solving the conflict, they just wanted to stop the war by any means possible, and now bosnian people are suffering from that

My curiosity made me decide to give the Srebinica Massacre Wiki page a full read for the first time. To say I’ve lost my faith in humanity(AND THE DUTCH) is to suggest I had it to begin with.
It's all fake, what actually happened Bosnian troops were using Srebrenica as a military base for years they would go out do some damage to Serbian troops and get back when Serbs started to chase them, and since it was UN protected zone Serbs would get stopped by the Dutch. That was happening for years on that day the Serbs just didn't stop and put barricades around the city. The Muslim forces tried to make a break true but suffered terrible losses that's when most of the men died. After some time fighting the Muslims surrendered and afterwards every fighting age man was captured and shout. Two interesting things about the shootings, The Serbian general in charge of Srebrenica military zone was not convicted of anything now he runs a Nato lobbing office in Belgrade, the JNA commanding officer who ITCY alleged had people doing the shooting was completely cleared of all charges by the appeal court but would later be caught giving classified information to the US and convicted by Serbian court as a spy. But it's all a big coincidence better not think about that. Also ITCY never was able to prove who gave the order to shoot the prisoners and the all convictions were bast on join criminal venture charges similar to RICO charges where you only need to show that a crime happened and that someone in the organization did it, you don't need to provide evidence that people you are charging were involved in the crime.
why tho? Srebrenica is so overrated war crime since only male potential militants were killed.
