Serbia to sue Croatia for war crimes
None
Serbia will respond to Croatia's genocide suit at the World Court by suing its former foe for war crimes, the foreign minister said. Vuk Jeremic told state television late Tuesday that Serbia will sue Croatia over a 1995 offensive that sent tens of thousands of Serbs fleeing the country.
The Netherlands-based International Court of Justice on Tuesday granted Croatia the right to sue Serbia, deciding it has the authority to rule in the case. Croatia argues that Serb attacks during the 1991-95 war of independence, which left thousands of people dead and displaced, were a form of genocide. (AP)
