I was eight years old when the war started at the end of 1991. I was living 30 km west from Vukovar. They never entered my village but next village was occupied. Sleeping with few families in a basement for 3 months like a dog while they were shelling us day after day. My father sent my mother, brother and me to the coast, I've become refugee. My father stayed. At that time USA and Europe didn't do anything and we had to fight for the next 4.5 years. In August 1995 in big military operation Storm (the biggest in Europe after WW2, 130,000 soldiers) we won. That's why we need and must help Ukraine, aggressor understands only force and power.

You can plea ignorance, but they remember. It doesn't have to be like that? Then stop the denialism, hand over all the perpetrators and condemn them. Make the bare minimum effort instead of sheltering criminals, instead of expecting victims to just forget it happened.

@@JmKrokY There will never be peace or reconciliation in the Balkans until Serbia and Croatia admit the conflict of the '90s was fundamentally about the division of Bosnia-Herzegovina between Serbia and Croatia at the expense of Bosniaks, and the Croats were as complicit as the Serbs, only weaker and unable to effect military realities on the ground. The conflict was not about "Greater Serbia" but Little Greater Croatia and Little Greater Serbia. WW2 simply weakened the existing order and allowed local forces to assert themselves in the absence of a centralized state... it was not a cause of anything. Desire to divide BiH moreover, this has not been limited to the '90s... but dates even before Cvetkovic-Macek. The history of disenfranchisement of Bosniaks and other Muslims in Yugoslavia was institutional and benefitted Serbs and Croats, and Bosnians have no reason whatsoever to trust Zagreb.
There is one extremely important thing that you forget to mention in this kind of documentaries - the current government of Serbia. Serbia, which is in practice a one-party state, has a government that thrives on keeping tensions between Croatia and Serbia at an all-time high. Vucic (Serbian dictator) knows that his country is in a sorry state and the tensions serve to keep him in power. Of course, this also feeds Croatian 'nationalists', which is exactly what Vucic wants. Vucic does not want reconciliation, he wants to keep tensions between Serbs and Croats at the highest level! For this, ordinary people have to pay, in both Serbia and Croatia. Most of all in Serbia, of course, which today is a thoroughly impoverished dictatorship, with no future prospects whatsoever. So - how could you forget to mention all this? Is this completely unknown to you?
Probably the most objective outside view of Vukovar there is. Croatian TV statitions wouldn't have the guts to publish it, Serbian TV stations want another war and talk about Greater Serbia every day.
I watched Croatian television out of interest, as I had just recently configured my TV. It didn't take five minutes before I heard about the "plight" of BiH Croats and various rationalizations of expansionism that are stepping stones to Greater Croatia. The themes of Croatian TV: football, war propaganda, Catholicism and Herceg-Bosna. And where would you be without them?

“A” Croat? Then you haven’t heard of Ovčara and Velepromet. Vilim Karlović wrote a book “I survived Ovčarea and Velepromet”, and it’s possible it has been translated into English. That is, if you want to read about the horrors he has experienced, and somehow survived to witness about it. They organised “torture chambers” in occupied villages, in private (empty) homes, in the cellars - where they would collect villagers, and then torture them there for days, eventually never sending them back home. The bodies of these victims have still not be found. There was a beautiful old man who was captured and he swallowed a wooden Catholic cross he had with him. When a četnik/yugoslav army soldier cut his throat, trying to kill him - and then threw him in some pit - that wooden cross stuck in his throat saved his life. He managed to crawl out of that pit (canal) where all dead bodies were thrown, only to be captured again at a different place. He then ended in concentration camps organised in serbia, somehow managed to survive these tortures, and then finally got exchanged for serbian prisoners of war captured by Croatian Army. During these exchanges of prisoners - there was a visible difference - those who were held by Croatian forces looked normally, while these coming from concentration camps in serbia looked like shadows of themselves, lost 40 kg each, all bruised and beaten, broken legs and arms, broken ribs, internal organs all shook from heavy beatings. One of the “entertainment” methods for the monsters leading these concentration camps/prisons in serbia was to make all prisoners lie down on the floor along the corridor - and then they would run across them in heavy boots, stepping on their fingers and all other body parts on purpose. And that was just one of the torturing methods. Some prisoners didn’t survive. Some committed a suicide after coming back home as they couldn’t live with degradation and horror they experienced there. The average age of these prisoners in serbian concentration camps is 55, they die at least 20 years earlier then those who weren’t prisoners of war in serbia, or any other serbian “prison” (concentration camp style prisons).
That’s unfortunately true and thanks to EU and US they got away with it, like many others who still live in Croatia but are protected by “our” government.

What did Croatia get instead in comparison? Well, maybe you guessed it correctly: A WEAPONS EMBARGO! Go figure!
Let me give you a hint why people would have been reluctant to provide Croatia with weaponry... It starts with B. The reason you had half of your arsenal in a foreign country for a war of choice against a party that was not occupying your territory means you had too many weapons not too few. You have the audacity to complain about an embargo that was not even effective as it was Croatian policy to violate it, Croats are truly hilarious and the level of collective delusion requires world experts in psychiatry to fully disentangle and explain this to those of us who are "unenlightened".

My heart goes out to Mladen, the Croatian veteran. As someone who has mixed Croat and Serb heritage, I've always taken the view that we must forgive our enemies and work towards co-existence. But hearing his words, 'we must remember who the perpetrators were, so future generations won't make the same mistake again' has rung a lot more truth to my ears than I expected. It's easy for me, an Australian with no family members killed in the war, to preach forgiveness and coexistence when I have nobody to forgive, and for that matter, nobody to coexist with. I still do hope that Serbs and Croats can move on and celebrate what makes us so similar, but I understand it's so much easier said than it is done.
The essence of the conflict in the '90s and in WWII was not Serb versus Croat, but the division of BiH at the expense of "Muslims" (Bosniaks). Serbs and Croats are historical allies with no major conflicts outside three months of 1991. That is how Yugoslavia emerged, and existed for 50 years as Croats had the numbers and ability to rebel against Yugoslavia if they did not support it. Bosniaks, Macedonians, Albanians did not have the numbers or level of enfranchisement in Yugoslavia to influence, in any way, policy. Serbs and Croats are brothers in Christ. Franjo Tudjman: "On the eve of WW2, all talk was on the division of BiH."
@@jonomobono3223 Talk about illiteracy, what I wrote was a personal opinion, not a fact. But if you follow the logic, the conclusions are very hard to refute... Croats were a quarter of the Yugoslav population, wealth was enormously concentrated in Croatia, the reason Yugoslavia existed is because Croats were beneficiaries of Yugoslavia and understood that, hence were very happy until the Serbs backstabbed them in 1990-1.

My parents are from Vukovar, I was born in munich. I now live in a village close to Vukovar, called Bogdanovci, my uncle was the commander of the defense of this village during the war. I once asked him, during an hour long voyage, if Croatians and Serbs could ever become "friends". Just like historically the germans and the french were eternal enemies, but after 2 world wars (and let´s face it, despite Sarajevo lighting up the powder keg, essentially both world wars were german/french conflicts and they were the main combatants), they buried their hatchets and moved on. Perhaps because too much blood was shed on both sides. And don´t get me wrong: Ofcourse much blood was shed between Serbs and Croats in history, but the amount pales in comparison to the wars between Germany and France, and YET these two nations are now at peace with each other, right? Fortunately enough, all my family from Vukovar, except one distant Great-uncle, which i liked (who was shot by some serb bandits) survived, so i have not much grievance. I also never had any problems with Serbs while I was living in munich. I would love to see a friendly relationship between croats and serbs, but unfortunately, I don´t see a perspective for it, at least not in the near future. And here is why: As is pointed out in the video, as part of the agreements, the serbs achieved the rights for seperate education. That is good for the serbs, and I have no problem with that in general. Let them have the right for seperate education. It just is not helpful for integration, but maybe, potentially, other problems could arise from mixing these schoolkids together. Imo, there should be schools where integration with both populations is tested, and these being monitored and examined, and other where that is not the case. And then we can make further decisions. But I think there is a lack of trust from both sides in this matter. I will remind you of the conversation that I had with my uncle, who was the commander of the forces that defended Bogdanovci in the war. He was born in 1947. People who are born much later still hold a grudge (and given the fact, that my family got off lightly, but others have not, that grudge might be MUCH MUCH deeper than mine, I understand), the only way forward to EVENTUALLY remove the grudge is our future generations, and that starts in schools. If our children learn the hate, learn a separation, then nothing can change to a better future. I will actually try to approach the serbian church in Vukovar (it is shown in the video), and hopefully start a fruitful dialogue. Wish me luck 🙂 I am optimistic for that. I hope to become a mediator in a sense.

Neither Catholics nor Serbs ever seriously cared about these historical events, or alleged historical events, these are just tools to condition those populations of their moral superiority and victim status and psychological preparation to commit atrocities and excuse them. I saw with my own eyes expelled Croatian militants fleeing through Serb lines after we attacked their positions in Kakanj in June '93 because I was a soldier in the ARBiH that participated in these hostilities. We later found out the brigade we expelled regrouped and reconstituted their forces in Kiseljak, which were then used against our forces in Fojnica. There was no path to Kiseljak through Croatian territory because we, along with the Serbs, controlled the environment of Kakanj municipality. Kiseljak was being constantly replenished with weapons, including tanks, armored vehicles, there were no supply lines but through Serbian territory, and Croatian military formations would have been defeated very early unless they were receiving those weapons and ammunition. Serbs saved fifteen to twenty thousand Croatian militants in Zepce, Kiseljak, Konjic and Vitez -- all of them would likely have ended up captured/KIA/E.

The truth is, Serbia aggressively attacked Croatia in '91, the Croatian defense army destroyed the 3rd military power in Europe, the Yugoslav army, and serbian rebels and drunken chetniks. Serbia lost the war, beaten to the core in the magnificent military operation Storm '95. The cowardly politics of Serbia are the servants of the French and British Freemasons.

The Yugoslavian Army was a different entity with the same name... the army collapsed after Slovenia, and many of its recruits disappeared, desertions were rampant, large chunks of the army demobilized. It ceased to be the "third military power of Europe" after '91. You tell yourself these stories to explain away the fact your country, after the JNA left for BiH, was occupied by Krajina Serbs, over whom you had a 10:1 advantage in human resources, for three long years. The question is why Croatia was occupied at all, or for so long.
@@jonomobono3223 Why did you agree to have the UN posted while Serbs occupied and governed a third of your territory?

The answer: You did not have the ability to defeat the Serbs militarily in 1991, 1992 or 1993, despite a massive advantage in human resources (10:1). After Vukovar, the Croatian army was militarily exhausted. The war would move to BiH because there was in reality nothing serious to fight in Croatia... 1992-1995, for every soldier in the Krajina, there were six in BiH.

You are prof that is much better to be german ally than frances. When it was 100 years of WW1 ending , in Paris , serbian delegation wasnt on stage , it was in public . Vuko-var , Tamis-var, Belo-var, Szeg-var , thoese are all hungaryan - magar names of town .
True because unlike Serbian practice in Vojvodina, Croatia did not change the name of cities... Zrenjanin was Nagybecskerek once. Srbobran was Szentomas, Sombor is Hungarian name, Apatin is Hungarian name. Not to mention smaller towns or villages like Aleksa Šantić, Krajišnik, Karađorđevo, Mišićevo etc. all renamed from original Hungarian and German names into Serbian.
Yeah because we lived with Hungarians in peace and we had no need to twist history. All the "vars" may have been named by them, but they're not the majority there anymore. Now let's talk about Belgrade and the fact that it was named by Croats. Is it a Croatian city now then?
And if you speak about past before WW1 which terorist state organized assasination od Ferdinand in Sarajevo and more back in history, who were invaders together with Otoman army in centuries before? Jasenovac happened but retaliation after WW2 happened, too.
Belgrade comes from turkish Name for "white mosque"...Same with vladicin Han, novi pazar etc. Nis, vranje are of of albanian origin...because they were historically albanian towns
It's a sad reflection on journalist integrity when one side's victims are honoured and martyred whilst another's are looked down upon as collateral damage. May Vukovar live in peace, as both Croats and Serbs deserve.
Think about what they did to each other, both of them were Christians. Serbs committed genocide against Muslims in Bosnia in front of the world. What a traumatic narrative prevails in a city where 200 people died. 100 thousand Muslims were killed by Serbs and Croats in Bosnia.
Actually muslims killed thousands of innocent christian people in bosnia... and bosnians attacked Christian people in central bosnia first, and then Christians striked back...
That many people (100 000) are presently thought to have died on all sides combined during the Yugoslav wars, soldiers plus civilians. Check your facts again.
Even as a Croatian I have to say it's extremely unprofessional (and not true) to say that Belgrad back then considered Vukovar as part of Greater Serbia. We don't need propganda when the truth is enough.
As a reminder, Croatia's state policy from 1941-1945 was "Kill one third of Serbs, Catholicize one third, expel one third" Croats killed 720,000 Serbs in Jasenovac and other concentration camps, they were also the only country in the world that had a concentration camp for children. you have the testimonies of the Germans as well. Of course, the international community thought it was a smart idea to support such a state, and of course they completed their plan by expelling the Serbs in 1995 Instead of dealing with that, you are dealing with propaganda against the Serbs, which you have been pushing since the 90s
Now, lets do the math 4 years of jasenovac x 365 days = 1460 days 720 000/1460 = 493 So, you are trying to say that NDH had enough manpower, resources, time and logistics to kill 493 people every single day for 4 years and dispose their bodies while at the same time actively fighting on multiple fronts in ww2? Is that what you really traing to say? P.s. this number tend to rise over years, it used to be 500k couple of years ago.
Serbs ethnic cleansed 200.000 croats and other non-serbs from croatia Serbs ethnic cleansed 800.000 bosniak and croatian civilians from bosnia and rpd over 50.000 underaged bosniak and croatian girls in children rp camps in front of there parents...

Serbian concentration camp for children = rakovica manastir near belgrade Also serbs raped over 70.000 bosniak, albanian and croatian children up to 7 years (!) in front of there parents
Why did the Serbs rape 50,000 women in Bosnia and why did the Serbs fill houses full of women and children in Eastern Bosnia and burn the houses down? Please do explain, are you suggesting the Serbs were taking out their frustrations on pregnant women and little kids in the 1990s for events in 1940s?
I presume you are talking about allegedly 1.500.000 Serbs killed by Ustashe. That’s debunked as the biggest lie in history of this part of Europe even by some Serbian scientists.
Can you name the Yugoslav study that claims that and the person who wrote it? There were three Yugoslav studies done during communist Yugoslavia on Yugoslav deaths during WW2. One in the 1960s and two in the 1980s and none have the number you have quoted or what you are claiming for Jasenovac camp.
Jasenovac was 50 years prior to the ethnic cleansing that serbs did to Croats and Bosnians. the 125,000 people murdered by the ustashe is a tragedy and did not go unpunished, but it does not justify the premeditated genocide, rape and displacement of people caused by serbia and serbians, infact the punishment should be even greater on serbia because they committed far worse crimes at a later date.

The entire Bosniak population is expelled and arrives in Gornji Vakuf, sometimes barefoot, only to be told to return to Prozor (to their destroyed town) by "our" president Izetbegovic, who, as it became clear to locals, had no idea what was happening. The ARBiH had drafted plans for a major counter-attack, but "our" president did not sign off on them, allowing the Sinj Split Imotski Siroki Brijeg Livno Catholics to fortify for months.

Shamefully biased video from the FRANCE 24. Calling whatever local Serbs say "propaganda" and openly taking the Croatian side. Terrible journalism. In November 1991 Croatia was not internationally recognized and the YNA went to Vukovar to help relieve the siege of the army barracks. If Bretons were to block a French army barrack in Rennes, what would the French army do? Milosevic did not deploy YNA troops, since as the president of Serbia he had 0 jurisdictions. It was Kadijevic and Adzic. Local Croats are no better than Croatian Serbs. Both are denying crimes of their side, Croats deny what happened before November 1991, and Serbs deny what happened thereafter.
The country was Croatia, which had the right to secede under the Yugoslav Constitution. The Yugoslav Army, in which the officers were predominantly Serbs, sided with Serbia. Serbia is a sad and pathetic nation that always loses and whines.
Serbia stole almost all the weapons from the Yugoslav army. The other 5 republic got only a small part of it. What does that tell you? The high Yugoslav command was Serbian. That was a clear violation of the Yugoslav constitution that claimed every nation must be represented in the command. That is how Serbia effectively took control over the Yugoslav army before the war started. The commander of the Yugoslav army was Serbian and had a deal with Milosevic to steal more than half of Croatian land and all of Bosnia to create a mythical state of great Serbia. In 1991. only Serbs remained in the Yugoslav army, and when the war started Serbia couldn't recruit normal conscripts. Because young normal Serbs wouldn't go to war and they fled the country. Serbia released thousands of murderers, thieves, and rapist from jails and sent them to Croatia to fight for imaginary great Serbia. They promised them freedom. The Serbian Yugoslav army wasn't there to bring order, but to kill, ethnic cleans Croatians, and destroy the city. They succeeded partially. 30 years later Vukovar isn't 100% rebuild.

@@JmKrokY There will never be peace or reconciliation in the Balkans until Serbia and Croatia admit the conflict of the '90s was fundamentally about the division of Bosnia-Herzegovina between Serbia and Croatia at the expense of Bosniaks, and the Croats were as complicit as the Serbs, only weaker and unable to effect military realities on the ground. The conflict was not about "Greater Serbia" but Little Greater Croatia and Little Greater Serbia. WW2 simply weakened the existing order and allowed local forces to assert themselves in the absence of a centralized state... it was not a cause of anything. Desire to divide BiH moreover, this has not been limited to the '90s... but dates even before Cvetkovic-Macek. The history of disenfranchisement of Bosniaks and other Muslims in Yugoslavia was institutional and benefitted Serbs and Croats, and Bosnians have no reason whatsoever to trust Zagreb.
No amnesty for animals
There is one extremely important thing that you forget to mention in this kind of documentaries - the current government of Serbia.
Serbia, which is in practice a one-party state, has a government that thrives on keeping tensions between Croatia and Serbia at an all-time high. Vucic (Serbian dictator) knows that his country is in a sorry state and the tensions serve to keep him in power.
Of course, this also feeds Croatian 'nationalists', which is exactly what Vucic wants. Vucic does not want reconciliation, he wants to keep tensions between Serbs and Croats at the highest level!
For this, ordinary people have to pay, in both Serbia and Croatia. Most of all in Serbia, of course, which today is a thoroughly impoverished dictatorship, with no future prospects whatsoever.
So - how could you forget to mention all this? Is this completely unknown to you?
our political elites loving that,too
Probably the most objective outside view of Vukovar there is. Croatian TV statitions wouldn't have the guts to publish it, Serbian TV stations want another war and talk about Greater Serbia every day.
I watched Croatian television out of interest, as I had just recently configured my TV. It didn't take five minutes before I heard about the "plight" of BiH Croats and various rationalizations of expansionism that are stepping stones to Greater Croatia. The themes of Croatian TV: football, war propaganda, Catholicism and Herceg-Bosna. And where would you be without them?

I read somewhere that in 1991 the Serbian soldiers crucified and mutilated a Croat in Vukovar in public on the street.
I heard Americans did the same in Libya , Yemen , Iraq and Afgahnistan
“A” Croat? Then you haven’t heard of Ovčara and Velepromet. Vilim Karlović wrote a book “I survived Ovčarea and Velepromet”, and it’s possible it has been translated into English. That is, if you want to read about the horrors he has experienced, and somehow survived to witness about it.
They organised “torture chambers” in occupied villages, in private (empty) homes, in the cellars - where they would collect villagers, and then torture them there for days, eventually never sending them back home. The bodies of these victims have still not be found.
There was a beautiful old man who was captured and he swallowed a wooden Catholic cross he had with him. When a četnik/yugoslav army soldier cut his throat, trying to kill him - and then threw him in some pit - that wooden cross stuck in his throat saved his life. He managed to crawl out of that pit (canal) where all dead bodies were thrown, only to be captured again at a different place. He then ended in concentration camps organised in serbia, somehow managed to survive these tortures, and then finally got exchanged for serbian prisoners of war captured by Croatian Army.
During these exchanges of prisoners - there was a visible difference - those who were held by Croatian forces looked normally, while these coming from concentration camps in serbia looked like shadows of themselves, lost 40 kg each, all bruised and beaten, broken legs and arms, broken ribs, internal organs all shook from heavy beatings. One of the “entertainment” methods for the monsters leading these concentration camps/prisons in serbia was to make all prisoners lie down on the floor along the corridor - and then they would run across them in heavy boots, stepping on their fingers and all other body parts on purpose. And that was just one of the torturing methods. Some prisoners didn’t survive. Some committed a suicide after coming back home as they couldn’t live with degradation and horror they experienced there. The average age of these prisoners in serbian concentration camps is 55, they die at least 20 years earlier then those who weren’t prisoners of war in serbia, or any other serbian “prison” (concentration camp style prisons).
That’s unfortunately true and thanks to EU and US they got away with it, like many others who still live in Croatia but are protected by “our” government.

Za Albance pod oružjem na tom području je to vijest jer su gotovo svi služili u ARBiH, a nitko sa srpskim "bratom u Kristu" Mate Bobanom. Najveća zajednica Albanaca u BiH prisutna je u Sarajevu, a iz te zajednice proizašla je Handžar divizija koja se borila protiv hrvatskih militanata u slivu Neretve.
Bili su očevici zlodjela hrvatskih snaga, a možda se sjećaju riječi Vrhovnika Franje upućene Albancima u Zagrebu 1990. godine: “Svoje probleme rješavajte u Beogradu”. Ostali dužnosnici, povrijeđeni Franjinim ponašanjem, ispričali su se Albancima.
Valja napomenuti da je takozvani zapovjednik HVO-a Tihomir Blaškić nekoliko godina bio stacioniran na Kosovu tijekom stravičnih zlostavljanja kosovskih Albanaca. Hrvati su bili druga najveća etnička skupina u svim institucijama komunističke Jugoslavije, potpuno upoznati sa situacijom na Kosovu, ali nisu poduzeli apsolutno ništa. Naravno, to je zavirivanje u još jednu stvarnost: Jugoslavija bez Hrvata ne bi mogla postojati. I najveći dio hrvatskog revizionizma je odvraćanje pažnje od te vrlo grube, ali očite činjenice.
Posebno je važno da se Dragan Čović potpisivao ćirilicom sve do 90-ih. Kao i mnogim drugim komunističkim aparatčicima, ton današnje Hrvatske bio je gotovo nepoznat generaciji hrvatskih političara koji su bili korisnici aparthejdske Jugoslavije.

What did Croatia get instead in comparison?

Let me give you a hint why people would have been reluctant to provide Croatia with weaponry... It starts with B.
The reason you had half of your arsenal in a foreign country for a war of choice against a party that was not occupying your territory means you had too many weapons not too few.

My heart goes out to Mladen, the Croatian veteran. As someone who has mixed Croat and Serb heritage, I've always taken the view that we must forgive our enemies and work towards co-existence. But hearing his words, 'we must remember who the perpetrators were, so future generations won't make the same mistake again' has rung a lot more truth to my ears than I expected. It's easy for me, an Australian with no family members killed in the war, to preach forgiveness and coexistence when I have nobody to forgive, and for that matter, nobody to coexist with. I still do hope that Serbs and Croats can move on and celebrate what makes us so similar, but I understand it's so much easier said than it is done.
The essence of the conflict in the '90s and in WWII was not Serb versus Croat, but the division of BiH at the expense of "Muslims" (Bosniaks). Serbs and Croats are historical allies with no major conflicts outside three months of 1991. That is how Yugoslavia emerged, and existed for 50 years as Croats had the numbers and ability to rebel against Yugoslavia if they did not support it. Bosniaks, Macedonians, Albanians did not have the numbers or level of enfranchisement in Yugoslavia to influence, in any way, policy. Serbs and Croats are brothers in Christ.

Poor muslim maniac from bosnia filled with complexes and jeleaousy, why noone likes him
My parents are from Vukovar, I was born in munich. I now live in a village close to Vukovar, called Bogdanovci, my uncle was the commander of the defense of this village during the war.
I once asked him, during an hour long voyage, if Croatians and Serbs could ever become "friends". Just like historically the germans and the french were eternal enemies, but after 2 world wars (and let´s face it, despite Sarajevo lighting up the powder keg, essentially both world wars were german/french conflicts and they were the main combatants), they buried their hatchets and moved on. Perhaps because too much blood was shed on both sides. And don´t get me wrong: Ofcourse much blood was shed between Serbs and Croats in history, but the amount pales in comparison to the wars between Germany and France, and YET these two nations are now at peace with each other, right?
Fortunately enough, all my family from Vukovar, except one distant Great-uncle, which i liked (who was shot by some serb bandits) survived, so i have not much grievance. I also never had any problems with Serbs while I was living in munich. I would love to see a friendly relationship between croats and serbs, but unfortunately, I don´t see a perspective for it, at least not in the near future. And here is why:
As is pointed out in the video, as part of the agreements, the serbs achieved the rights for seperate education. That is good for the serbs, and I have no problem with that in general. Let them have the right for seperate education. It just is not helpful for integration, but maybe, potentially, other problems could arise from mixing these schoolkids together.
Imo, there should be schools where integration with both populations is tested, and these being monitored and examined, and other where that is not the case. And then we can make further decisions.
But I think there is a lack of trust from both sides in this matter.
I will remind you of the conversation that I had with my uncle, who was the commander of the forces that defended Bogdanovci in the war. He was born in 1947. People who are born much later still hold a grudge (and given the fact, that my family got off lightly, but others have not, that grudge might be MUCH MUCH deeper than mine, I understand), the only way forward to EVENTUALLY remove the grudge is our future generations, and that starts in schools.
If our children learn the hate, learn a separation, then nothing can change to a better future.
I will actually try to approach the serbian church in Vukovar (it is shown in the video), and hopefully start a fruitful dialogue. Wish me luck 🙂
I am optimistic for that. I hope to become a mediator in a sense.
I’d love to know more about your family’s story, and I hope that your meeting in the church went well. 🙂

Neither Catholics nor Serbs ever seriously cared about these historical events, or alleged historical events, these are just tools to condition those populations of their moral superiority and victim status and psychological preparation to commit atrocities and excuse them.
I saw with my own eyes expelled Croatian militants fleeing through Serb lines after we attacked their positions in Kakanj in June '93 because I was a soldier in the ARBiH that participated in these hostilities. We later found out the brigade we expelled regrouped and reconstituted their forces in Kiseljak, which were then used against our forces in Fojnica. There was no path to Kiseljak through Croatian territory because we, along with the Serbs, controlled the environment of Kakanj municipality. Kiseljak was being constantly replenished with weapons, including tanks, armored vehicles, there were no supply lines but through Serbian territory, and Croatian military formations would have been defeated very early unless they were receiving those weapons and ammunition. Serbs saved fifteen to twenty thousand Croatian militants in Zepce, Kiseljak, Konjic and Vitez -- all of them would likely have ended up captured/KIA/E.

Bosnians backstabbed croats...and croats saved bosnians from serbs

The truth is, Serbia aggressively attacked Croatia in '91, the Croatian defense army destroyed the 3rd military power in Europe, the Yugoslav army, and serbian rebels and drunken chetniks. Serbia lost the war, beaten to the core in the magnificent military operation Storm '95. The cowardly politics of Serbia are the servants of the French and British Freemasons. They did not succeed, Croatia will live forever.💪🇭🇷
BOG I HRVATI!
The Yugoslavian Army was a different entity with the same name... the army collapsed after Slovenia, and many of its recruits disappeared, desertions were rampant, large chunks of the army demobilized. It ceased to be the "third military power of Europe" after '91. You tell yourself these stories to explain away the fact your country, after the JNA left for BiH, was occupied by Krajina Serbs, over whom you had a 10:1 advantage in human resources, for three long years. The question is why Croatia was occupied at all, or for so long.
@@hasibhakanovic6682 because there was UN who protected so called krajina...otherwise croats would have liberated knin easily in 1992...
@@jonomobono3223 Why did you agree to have the UN posted while Serbs occupied and governed a third of your territory? You put your signature to the armistice, envisaged as a permanent solution with a third of your territory occupied! Why didn't you withdraw your signature from the permanent ceasefire and liberate your territory? Why not just send in the Croatian Army... It was not the Serbs that asked for UNPROFOR, it was you! The answer: You did not have the ability to defeat the Serbs militarily in 1991, 1992 or 1993, despite a massive advantage in human resources (10:1). After Vukovar, the Croatian army was militarily exhausted. The war would move to BiH because there was in reality nothing serious to fight in Croatia... 1992-1995, for every soldier in the Krajina, there were six in BiH.
its easy, croats never wanted war nor they didnt want to force out serbs...croats were always Willing for compromise solution, but serbs rejected (z4 plan is just one example)...so croats have to do what they had to do
@@hasibhakanovic6682 because we croats never wanted war and were always ready for compromisses and the other sode wasnt (z 4 plan for example)...
You are prof that is much better to be german ally than frances. When it was 100 years of WW1 ending , in Paris , serbian delegation wasnt on stage , it was in public .
Vuko-var , Tamis-var, Belo-var, Szeg-var , thoese are all hungaryan - magar names of town .
True because unlike Serbian practice in Vojvodina, Croatia did not change the name of cities... Zrenjanin was Nagybecskerek once. Srbobran was Szentomas, Sombor is Hungarian name, Apatin is Hungarian name. Not to mention smaller towns or villages like Aleksa Šantić, Krajišnik, Karađorđevo, Mišićevo etc. all renamed from original Hungarian and German names into Serbian.
Yeah because we lived with Hungarians in peace and we had no need to twist history. All the "vars" may have been named by them, but they're not the majority there anymore.
Now let's talk about Belgrade and the fact that it was named by Croats. Is it a Croatian city now then?
Have a look at the international map of Serbia (Servia) from 1910 it does not include Kosovo or Vojvodina.
And if you speak about past before WW1 which terorist state organized assasination od Ferdinand in Sarajevo and more back in history, who were invaders together with Otoman army in centuries before? Jasenovac happened but retaliation after WW2 happened, too.
Belgrade comes from turkish Name for "white mosque"...Same with vladicin Han, novi pazar etc.
Nis, vranje are of of albanian origin...because they were historically albanian towns
It's a sad reflection on journalist integrity when one side's victims are honoured and martyred whilst another's are looked down upon as collateral damage. May Vukovar live in peace, as both Croats and Serbs deserve.
Croatia is not part of the Balkans. Please learn geography. We are a Central and South-Eastern European country, not the Balkans!
Think about what they did to each other, both of them were Christians. Serbs committed genocide against Muslims in Bosnia in front of the world. What a traumatic narrative prevails in a city where 200 people died. 100 thousand Muslims were killed by Serbs and Croats in Bosnia.
100 thousand??? now you sound like serb
Actually muslims killed thousands of innocent christian people in bosnia...
and bosnians attacked Christian people in central bosnia first, and then Christians striked back...
Turkey = ISIS
That many people (100 000) are presently thought to have died on all sides combined during the Yugoslav wars, soldiers plus civilians. Check your facts again.
@@Мєтодипоискатєљ 92% of all war crimes during yugoslav wars were done by serbs
Even as a Croatian I have to say it's extremely unprofessional (and not true) to say that Belgrad back then considered Vukovar as part of Greater Serbia. We don't need propganda when the truth is enough.
You are not Croatian. You are just a proof that Dobrica Cosic was right.
As a reminder, Croatia's state policy from 1941-1945 was "Kill one third of Serbs, Catholicize one third, expel one third" Croats killed 720,000 Serbs in Jasenovac and other concentration camps, they were also the only country in the world that had a concentration camp for children. you have the testimonies of the Germans as well.
Of course, the international community thought it was a smart idea to support such a state, and of course they completed their plan by expelling the Serbs in 1995
Instead of dealing with that, you are dealing with propaganda against the Serbs, which you have been pushing since the 90s
It was German state policy to exterminate all Jews in the 40s. What's your point? Countries change (except Serbia, apparently).
Now, lets do the math
4 years of jasenovac x 365 days = 1460 days
720 000/1460 = 493
So, you are trying to say that NDH had enough manpower, resources, time and logistics to kill 493 people every single day for 4 years and dispose their bodies while at the same time actively fighting on multiple fronts in ww2?
Is that what you really traing to say?
P.s. this number tend to rise over years, it used to be 500k couple of years ago.
Serbs ethnic cleansed 200.000 croats and other non-serbs from croatia
Serbs ethnic cleansed 800.000 bosniak and croatian civilians from bosnia and rpd over 50.000 underaged bosniak and croatian girls in children rp camps in front of there parents...
Never forget srebrenica, sarajevo, prijedor, kozarac, foca, visegrad, bihac, zvornik, bijeljina, posavina etc.
Last but not least serbs ethnic cleansed 1.000.000 albanians from kosova...and rpd over 20.000 albanian girls up to 7(!) years in front of there parents
As a reminder:
Serbian state policy in the 1990s and now is to exterminate all non-serbs from balkans
Serbian concentration camp for children = rakovica manastir near belgrade
Also serbs raped over 70.000 bosniak, albanian and croatian children up to 7 years (!) in front of there parents
Same one sided western propaganda like the 90s.
Why allways one side. Why don't you interview 90% of people from Vukovar. Let's hear other side. Why so afraid of truth?
Once you see how many Serbs lived in Bosnia before and after the war, you'll relise who was a real victim.

Please do explain, are you suggesting the Serbs were taking out their frustrations on pregnant women and little kids in the 1990s for events in 1940s?
I presume you are talking about allegedly 1.500.000 Serbs killed by Ustashe. That’s debunked as the biggest lie in history of this part of Europe even by some Serbian scientists.

it vas 4 400 432,and 3 000 000 more missing
Lie, biggest casualitie in Hasenova were Croats killed by Partizans
Can you name the Yugoslav study that claims that and the person who wrote it?
There were three Yugoslav studies done during communist Yugoslavia on Yugoslav deaths during WW2. One in the 1960s and two in the 1980s and none have the number you have quoted or what you are claiming for Jasenovac camp.
A 400000, no, 3 million no 4 million,f liers…….
Jasenovac was 50 years prior to the ethnic cleansing that serbs did to Croats and Bosnians. the 125,000 people murdered by the ustashe is a tragedy and did not go unpunished, but it does not justify the premeditated genocide, rape and displacement of people caused by serbia and serbians, infact the punishment should be even greater on serbia because they committed far worse crimes at a later date.

@@barmajutta-oj8td Facts... Prozor October 1992, 500 homes and businesses belonging to Bosniaks in a 80% populated Bosniak town are looted then set on fire by soldiers of the Zagreb regime under various aliases to disguise the effective control of Zagreb, wearing black shirts, boots and memorabilia from a certain era in Europe. The destruction was documented and photographed, and you can find photos on the internet. Foreign Catholics are among them, as well as right-wing extremists. Convoys carrying the looted goods travel to and from Prozor and Western Herzegovina for about a week nonstop. The entire Bosniak population is expelled and arrives in Gornji Vakuf, sometimes barefoot, only to be told to return to Prozor (to their destroyed town) by "our" president Izetbegovic, who, as it became clear to locals, had no idea what was happening. The ARBiH had drafted plans for a major counter-attack, but "our" president did not sign off on them, allowing the Sinj Split Imotski Siroki Brijeg Livno Catholics to fortify for months.

Shamefully biased video from the FRANCE 24. Calling whatever local Serbs say "propaganda" and openly taking the Croatian side. Terrible journalism.
In November 1991 Croatia was not internationally recognized and the YNA went to Vukovar to help relieve the siege of the army barracks. If Bretons were to block a French army barrack in Rennes, what would the French army do?
Milosevic did not deploy YNA troops, since as the president of Serbia he had 0 jurisdictions. It was Kadijevic and Adzic.
Local Croats are no better than Croatian Serbs.
Both are denying crimes of their side, Croats deny what happened before November 1991, and Serbs deny what happened thereafter.
Country was Yugoslavia . The legal army is the Yugoslav Army . Good propaganda Frenchie
The country was Croatia, which had the right to secede under the Yugoslav Constitution. The Yugoslav Army, in which the officers were predominantly Serbs, sided with Serbia. Serbia is a sad and pathetic nation that always loses and whines.
Serbia stole almost all the weapons from the Yugoslav army. The other 5 republic got only a small part of it. What does that tell you? The high Yugoslav command was Serbian. That was a clear violation of the Yugoslav constitution that claimed every nation must be represented in the command. That is how Serbia effectively took control over the Yugoslav army before the war started. The commander of the Yugoslav army was Serbian and had a deal with Milosevic to steal more than half of Croatian land and all of Bosnia to create a mythical state of great Serbia. In 1991. only Serbs remained in the Yugoslav army, and when the war started Serbia couldn't recruit normal conscripts. Because young normal Serbs wouldn't go to war and they fled the country. Serbia released thousands of murderers, thieves, and rapist from jails and sent them to Croatia to fight for imaginary great Serbia. They promised them freedom. The Serbian Yugoslav army wasn't there to bring order, but to kill, ethnic cleans Croatians, and destroy the city. They succeeded partially. 30 years later Vukovar isn't 100% rebuild.
Yugoslavia was not a country but union of six independent republics and three autonomous regions, Vojvodina, Kosovo and Sandžak.
