Montenegro’s Jasenovac Commemoration Move Sparks Tensions With Croatia

This post is also available in this language: Shqip Bos/Hrv/Srp Montenegro’s parliament has said it will mark a day of remembrance for victims of genocide in the World War II concentration camps at Jasenovac in Croatia, Mauthausen and Dachau on Tuesday evening with a commemorative event at the Music Centre cultural institution in Podgorica. The move, led by parliament speaker Andrija Mandic – leader of the conservative nationalist New Serb Democracy party – has been criticised in neighbouring Croatia as politically motivated and divisive, sparking fresh tensions between the two Balkan countries.
