С Р О Ч Н О Военный трибунал ООН по бывшей Югославии приговорил Слободана Милошевича к 32 годам тюремного заключения
МОСКВА, 1 сен - РИА "Новости". Военный трибунал ООН по бывшей Югославии приговорил бывшего сербского лидера Слободана Милошевича, обвиняемого в пытках и депортации боснийских мусульман и хорват, к 32 годам тюремного заключения, сообщает АП. Обвинение в геноциде с него было снято.
Наряду с Милошевичем, обвинения в уничтожении несербского населения Боснии были сняты с бывшего главы сербского региона Крайина, самопровозгласившего в начале боснийской войны свою автономию, Радислав Брджанин.
Несмотря на то, что Брджанин был признан весьма влиятельной фигурой в годы войны, ООН сняла с него личную ответственность за большую часть серьезных преступлений.

ИМХО - предупреждение Запада всем многонациональным государствам, которые решат сохранять свою территориальную целостность. На мой взгляд весь этот трибунал надо сам посадить на 100 лет каждого.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — The Yugoslav war crimes tribunal convicted a high-ranking Bosnian Serb leader Wednesday of torture, deportation, and other crimes against Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, but acquitted him of genocide. He was sentenced to 32 years in prison.
Radislav Brdjanin, 56, who headed the wartime political leadership of the self-declared Serbian autonomous region of Krajina at the start of the Bosnian war, also was acquitted of charges of extermination of non-Serbs in the northwestern area of Bosnia.
U.N. judges said they were satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt that Brdjanin was the most powerful political figure in the region, but they absolved him of personal responsibility for the most serious crimes.
Reading a summary the verdict that took nearly two hours, presiding judge Carmel Agius said Brdjanin had helped carry out a strategic plan to create a united and ethnically pure Serbian nation within the republics of the former Yugoslavia.
The murder of more than 1,600 Muslims and Croats, the deportation of tens of thousands of civilians and the destruction of their villages were all aimed at seizing control of the area and "to permanently remove most non-Serbs from that territory," the judgment said.
Brdjanin not only supported the plan but "knew that it could only be implemented by force and fear."
Brdjanin was convicted on eight out of 12 counts in his indictment, including the destruction of religious institutions, willful killing, and the devastation of villages that was unjustified by any military reasons.
The court ruled, however, that genocide had not occurred in Krajina, saying there was insufficient evidence to show that the Serbs intended to destroy the non-Serb population as a specific group.
As the president of the wartime crisis staff, Brdjanin also was convicted for overseeing prison camps where detainees were beaten, raped, sexually abused and killed, as part of what became known as the "ethnic cleansing" of Bosnia.
"All the camps and detention facilities mentioned in the evidence came into being once the Krajina crisis staff had been established," it said. "The accused was fully aware of the nature of these camps."
