Dominic Raab – 2020 Statement on the 25th Anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide

The text of the statement made by Dominic Raab, the Foreign Secretary, on 11 July 2020.

On the 25th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, we remember the victims and the anguish of their families.

During my time in The Hague between 2003 and 2006, pursuing those responsible for this dark chapter in European history, I was reminded daily of the heinous cruelty perpetrated against the innocent.

The UK is determined to end impunity and help rebuild those countries affected – as our commitment to the ICC, and UK investment and support for Bosnia demonstrates.
