110 NGOs and over 500 prominent individuals expect from the Goverment of Montenegro to co-sponsor the UN Resolution on the Remembrance of the Srebrenica Genocide (International Day of Remembrance and Commemoration of the Srebrenica Genocide in 1995).
The same was demanded from the Goverment by the Bosniak Council, all opposition parties, as well as one party that is part of the Goverment.
It is important to know that the Resolution does not contain anything that Montenegro did not already accept in 2009 and 2021 by adopting the Declaration on the acceptance of the resolution of the European Parliament on Srebrenica and the Resolution on the genocide in Srebrenica.
The resolution is co-sponsored by 33 UN member states, including Bosnia and Hercegovina, Slovenia, Croatia and North Macedonia.
The Goverment can announce the decision on co-sponsorship until the vote on the resolution on Thursday, May 23.
