The President of the National Assembly of Republika Srpska, Nenad Stevandić, announced that the initiative of deputies from the Russian State Duma and the Federation Council calling for the international legal and moral accountability of NATO countries for the aggression against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1999 will be submitted to the competent bodies of the National Assembly of Srpska for adoption in parliament.
“After we become fully informed about the complete document, we will send it to the competent bodies of the National Assembly of Republika Srpska to go through the preparatory phase, so that we can adopt it in the National Assembly,” Stevandić told Srna from Moscow, where he leads a parliamentary delegation visiting Russia.
He believes there will be complete agreement with this initiative but prefers not to preemptively discuss it.
“We will definitely analyze the document and anticipate its adoption in the National Assembly,” said Stevandić.
Lawyer Goran Petronijević expressed confidence that the parliaments of Serbia and Republika Srpska would support the initiative of deputies from the Russian State Duma and the Federation Council calling for the international legal and moral accountability of NATO countries for the aggression against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1999.
The Russian State Duma adopted a draft address on the 25th anniversary of NATO’s bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia during a plenary session yesterday.
“Both chambers of the Federal Assembly of Russia are addressing the UN, international parliamentary organizations, and parliaments of foreign states with a call to condemn the NATO countries’ military operation against Yugoslavia, to oppose attempts to change the historical truth about the tragic events of 1999 in the interest of the collective West, and to take measures to hold Alliance members internationally accountable for the aggression against Yugoslavia,” the address states.
The text emphasizes that the fact the Alliance’s attack on Yugoslavia went unpunished created conditions for new military actions worldwide under the guise of fighting “for the values of freedom and democracy.”
