8:32Now PlayingThe UN General Assembly has voted to establish an annual day to commemorate the Srebrenica genocide.
It has made July 11 the International Day of Remembrance of the Srebrenica Genocide, putting the crime on par with the Holocaust and the Rwandan genocide. On this day in 1995, the Bosnian Serb forces captured Srebrenica and over the following days, massacred eight thousand unarmed Bosnian Muslim men and teenagers.
The resolution has been adopted despite fierce opposition from Bosnian Serbs and Serbian leadership. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic is at the United Nations. Ahead of the vote, he said the measure would deepen divisions in the region.
For the latest on this we are joined by DW Washington bureau chief Ines Pohl at the UN headquarters in New York and DW reporter Aida Salihbegović is in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the city of Mostar.
