ISLAMOPHOBIA 25 YEARS AFTER SREBRENICA, WHERE IS BOSNIA HEADING?
Manage episode 312789699 series 3246437
“The war was just paused”, this is how my guest today, journalist Mersiha Gadzo describes the situation in Bosnia as the Serbian far right is again beating the drums of war.
With the release of the Srebrenica Memorial’s report on the SREBRENICA GENOCIDE DENIAL REPORT (2020), it is shocking for many that the horrific massacres of Muslims in Srebrenica leaving 8000 civilian dead at the hands of serbian forces 25 years ago are so contested that a report had to be written.
In order to discuss current events in Bosnia in light of the the resurgent threat of Serbian nationalism against Muslims, journalist and producer Mersiha Gadzo (Al Jazeera English) joined me for this special edition of Le Breakdown.
As a Bosnian who had to leave her country and who’s been covering the region for years, Mrs Gadzo gave her analysis of why serbian nationalism is again threatening to repeat to what happened in the 1990’s, the state of islamophobia in the region and how the dayton accords which had put an end to the war in 1995, actually only paused the mass killings.
