I wonder if these answers had been "adapted" or trimmed by the Hague tribunal. RT, great work!

No questions about Bosnian regimes likes to International terrorism and Bin Ladin who he personally meet in his office in Sarajevo, Srebrenica, western support for Islamic militants against Serbs and CIA black flights dropping weapons to Bosnian Muslim forces under the cover of foreign aid drops, Nasir Oric and the slaughter of over 3,000 Serb civilians and ethnic cleansing on the surrounding Serb villages which prompted an Serb intervention, etc. Not a particularly good interview but at least you obtained an interview.

RT thank you for doing this, western medias are generally reluctant toward Serbian side of the story, they are only working according to their agenda, which finally point is to encircle and disintegrate Russia.

First, if Karadzic is innocent, why was he on the run for almost 15 years? Now he is playing mad (wich he must be for doing all the horrible crimes that he did), and saying something about some secret agreement with the western countries......Second, Serbia was convicted for not stopping the Bosnian Serb forces commiting genocide in Srebrenica region, and it is not possible that R. Karadzic, as the Bosnian Serb leader, didn't have anything to do with these crimes. I just hope he has a fair trial, and gets convicted, so the victims and their families have some peace at last. @johnx: What are you talking about?? What Bin Laden's office in Sarajevo? I mean, what...? Do you even know where Sarajevo is? Do you even know where Bosnia & Hercegovina is? Have you ever been to Sarajevo, or any other city in BiH? You really should, if you havent, to see that there is apsolutely no difference between the three nations living there (they all talk the same, look the same...are the same), both male and female.

The Hague Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia is a farce. The level of its cynicism and mistreatment of justice is crying out to heaven. However, it serves as a very good, all too clear, telling lesson in what "justice" would be if the New World Order were to reign supreme. In this respect, the "justice" of the tribunal is nearly as close as one can get to a fascist court under the mask of the residual make-up of political correctness. Naser Oric like other war criminals were quickly declared innocent by the tribunal. The tribunal is a NATO-run machine--a little Leviathan in the service of its bigger doppelganger. It is one of the saddest tragedies that, under Yeltsin, Russia agreed with a creation of such a monster that mutilates and cripples justice beyond recognition. As I said, the tribunal's "justice" is the closest approximation to fascist justice in our time.

Great interview! Radovans answers are poetry, like music to the ears. It seems Radovan has been in a time machine while the rest of Europe has deteriorated, he is the kind of man that used to populate Europe but is so hard to find nowadays.

@partysan. Osama bin Laden was seen in Sarajevo during the war by two journalists: Eve-Ann Prentice from the London Times and Guardian and by Renate Flottau from Der Spiegel. They saw him meet with Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic. If you read the 9/11 report you find that some of the hijackers were veterans of the Bosnian jihad. In addition to the 9/11 hijackers, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was fighting against the Serbs in Bosnia too. I've been to Sarajevo and I've seen that most of the Muslims there are not fanatics, however their war-time government was fanatical. Alija Izetbegovic was an Islamic fundamentalist, and that's why the Iranian government provided the Bosnian-Muslims with 2/3rds of their military hardware during the war. The Bosnian war could have been totally avoided if the Muslims had a more moderate leader like Fikret Abdic or Adil Zulfikarpasic. Abdic even got more votes than Izetbegovic in the 1990 elections -- it's too bad the will of the voters wasn't respected. The United States was plotting Radovan Karadzic's assassination. That is the opinion of the Tribunal's former chief prosecutor Carla del Ponte. There is a tape recording of her saying that if the Americans ever found Karadzic that they would murder him, and if you care to listen to the tape Karadzic played it in court during his opening statement. Two prominant Serbian leaders have died under suspicious circumstances in the Tribunal's prison. Krajina Serb leader Milan Babic allegedly committed suicide, but the ligature marks on his neck weren't consistant with the belt they say he hung himself with. Slobodan Milosevic had a "heart attack" in the same prison just 72-hours after he sent a letter to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs alleging that he was being poisoned. If I were Radovan Karadzic I would have stayed in hiding too -- it has nothing to do with being guilty or innocent. Now that he's in the Tribunal's jail everybody who might want to kill him knows where he is.

partysan echos the MANTRA "Second, Serbia was convicted for not stopping the Bosnian Serb forces commiting genocide in Srebrenica region, and it is not possible that R. Karadzic, as the Bosnian Serb leader, didn't have anything to do with these crimes" You and people like you crack me up who setup the Hague in the first place for one, address the real issues.... start here http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=18077 details like this speak for themselves, this and other hard evidence the Hague refuses to look at, I mean the PR campaign wasn't really that good was it? And why is the 8000 mantra been repeated so often without the slightest review of the actual evidence, put the real evidence before a neutral jury and it'll be Bill Clinton and his side kicks that will face the Mothers of these poor soldiers that lost there lives in what was a preventable war. If you think I'm wrong in this don't rant and rave but answer the issues, I'm more than prepared to change my mind if you can do that.

re partysan echos the MANTRA Nobody denies the fact that a crime was committed, former Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic described what happened in Srebrenica as an “insane crime” and former Bosnian-Serb president Radovan Karadzic recently told the ICTY trial chamber, “I believe that for thousands of [Srebrenica victims] we can assume that people’s hands were tied, and based on that we can assume that those people were executed.” Bosnian-Serb forces killed thousands of Bosnian-Muslims from Srebrenica, including many civilians. However, the allegation that the victims were primarily civilians and that the killings constituted an act of genocide is absurd. The overwhelming majority of Srebrenica victims were military-aged men who were members of the Army of Bosnia Herzegovina (ABiH), as evidenced by their military service records. Executing hostile civilians and enemy POWs is clearly a war crime. In Srebrenica the question is how many people were executed and why? The dispute about what happened in Srebrenica hinges on that question. The Bosnian-Serbs and the Bosnian-Muslims tell two different stories about what happened in Srebrenica. The Bosnian-Muslims say the Serbs rounded up every man and young boy they could get their hands on and murdered them in cold blood. The Bosnian Serbs have never denied executing Bosnian-Muslim men whom they suspected of participating in attacks on Serbian villages, but they insist that the Bosnian-Muslims are exaggerating the scope of the crime and that most of the victims died in combat. http://www.slobodan-milosevic.org/news/smorg_rch_030110.htm Remember "partysan" in a real democracy a neutral jury (media) listens (prints) both sides of the story !!!

Clinton’s Big Lie: “Srebrenica Massacre” One of the important questions that has not been properly addressed yet is the demographic picture of Srebrenica prior to July 1995 operations and the actual number of Bosnian Muslims populating Srebrenica before the war. In addition, the inexplicable secrecy in regards to the forensics, as well as the peculiar absence of all the relevant data about the remains of the bodies tagged and reburied as “Srebrenica victims,” represents another major obstacle to conducting a serious, comprehensive investigation. “Of all the remains exhumed and identified until today, none were subjected to forensic analysis which would determine the place, time, means and cause of death”, Vujadinović reminded. The information that has surfaced during the Hague’s recent pre-trial briefs gave further reason to question the “Srebrenica massacre” allegations, when it was revealed that the International Commission on Missing Persons (ICMP), which handles the exhumations and the DNA analysis, is not sharing the evidence even with the NATO’s own court in Hague. A rather odd secrecy which can hardly help the accusers push the case beyond the realm of speculations, unsubstantiated charges and flagrant fabrication. http://de-construct.net/?p=7695
