According to the KLA War Veterans’ Organization, ceremonies honoring these units cannot be described as commemorations as long as Serbia’s state, military and police archives remain closed and the fate of missing persons has yet to be clarified.
“Honoring Serbian military units while continuing to keep Serbia’s state archives closed and conceal evidence of war crimes is not commemoration. It is the institutionalization of denial and the protection of impunity,” the statement said.
The organization called on Belgrade to open its military and police archives and to disclose the fate of those who went missing during the war in Kosovo. It stressed that the truth cannot be covered up “with medals, state honors or rewritten narratives.”
The KLA War Veterans’ Organization believes that the failure to respond to the glorification of Serbian units further reinforces the denial of crimes. At the same time, the organization reiterated that Kosovo will uncompromisingly pursue truth and accountability for war crimes.
