Sarajevo Group Condemns Serbia's State Funeral for Mladić as Aggression Signal

Circle 99, a Sarajevo-based association, publicly condemned Serbia's state funeral and military honors for Ratko Mladić, framing it as evidence of Serbia's role as an aggressor in the Bosnian War. The statement escalates regional political tensions, though it reflects an established pattern of post-war recrimination rather than a new development. The funeral itself signals Serbia's continued state-level honoring of a convicted war criminal, which may strain regional relations and EU integration efforts.
