style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>at the High-level Commemorative Event on the occasion of the International Day of Reflection and Commemoration of the 1995 Genocide in Srebrenica <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>11 July 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>[As Delivered]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>His Excellency, Elmedin Konakovi\u0107, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina, <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Excellencies, <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Ladies and Gentlemen,<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I thank the Permanent Mission of Bosnia and Herzegovina for their invitation to this solemn gathering.<\/p>\n<p>In April 1993, the United Nations Security Council declared Srebrenica a safe area.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, in July 1995, this supposed sanctuary became the site of the largest massacre in the territory of the former Yugoslavia.<\/p>\n<p>Over 8,372 lives were lost, thousands were displaced \u2013 and entire families and communities were devastated.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly three decades after this horrific chapter of History, survivors and their families continue to draw strength from their pursuit of justice and reconciliation.<\/p>\n<p>Both the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and the International Court of Justice have recognized this massacre as an act of genocide.<\/p>\n<p>The lessons of Srebrenica are clear: intolerance and bigotry \u2013 when allowed to flourish \u2013 culminate in atrocities beyond comprehension.<\/p>\n<p>We must always remain vigilant and guard against rhetoric that dehumanizes, degrades, and discriminates against a particular group.<\/p>\n<p>Because such rhetoric is always rooted in hate, and \u2013 left unchecked \u2013 always leads to unspeakable evil.<\/p>\n<p>While it is essential to prosecute the remaining perpetrators of the Srebrenica genocide, we cannot accept any attempt to simply forget or deny the enormity of what transpired.<\/p>\n<p>We simply cannot allow this to happen.<\/p>\n<p>The United Nations General Assembly&#8217;s designation of 11 July as the International Day of Reflection and Commemoration of the 1995 Genocide in Srebrenica is therefore a timely act \u2013 to not only recognize the victims and their families; but also pay tribute to survivors who have tirelessly fought to keep the memory of Srebrenica alive and ensure that such atrocities never happen again.<\/p>\n<p>Upholding this responsibility is fundamental to the mission of the United Nations.<\/p>\n<p>Genocide denial will neither lead to justice nor peace, and every nation \u2013 regardless of its distance to Bosnia-Herzegovina, or its own history \u2013 has a responsibility to uphold international court decisions that bring justice to survivors and prevent genocide within its own borders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Excellencies, <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Ladies and Gentlemen,<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Today, this commemoration is more relevant than ever \u2013 as divisive rhetoric and attempts to create divisions run wider, louder, and deeper than ever before, around the world.<\/p>\n<p>It offers a chance for significant societal transformation.<\/p>\n<p>From Europe to the Middle East, this period of global upheaval prompts essential questions about our way of life, our shared future \u2013 and how we treat one another.<\/p>\n<p>As we approach the thirtieth anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide in 2025, let us reflect on and learn from this darkest chapter in our history, to help prevent its tragic repetition.<\/p>\n<p>This commitment demands that we acknowledge the profound suffering of survivors and the families of victims.<\/p>\n<p>It requires unwavering opposition to any denial, distortion, or falsification of incontrovertible facts.<\/p>\n<p>And above all, it calls on us to relentlessly pursue justice and truth \u2013 for that is the only path to fostering sustainable peace and genuine reconciliation.<\/p>\n<p>Let us use this new International Day to honour those lost, educate [future] generations, unite communities, and combat hate in all its forms \u2013 I repeat: in all its forms..<\/p>\n<p>This is essential to ensure that everyone \u2013 regardless of race, faith, or nationality \u2013 feels safe in their communities.<\/p>\n<p>I leave you with the wise words of Maya Angelou, the famed African American writer:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHistory, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To write a brighter future acknowledging the truth about the Srebrenica genocide is essential \u2014 not only as a matter of justice for its victims, but as a cornerstone for lasting peace.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>I thank you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>* *** *<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>PGA\u2019s Website<\/strong>: <a
