About

Bosnia is a country in Southeastern Europe, formerly part of Yugoslavia. It's newsworthy due to ongoing efforts to address the legacy of the Bosnian War (1992-1995), including the pursuit of justice for alleged war criminals. Recently, the US Justice Department initiated a civil case to revoke the citizenship of Kemal Mrndzic, accused of being a Bosnian war criminal and concealing his wartime service during immigration. The 30th anniversary of the war's end highlights its lasting impact, with terms like 'ethnic cleansing' still relevant. The war's legacy also touches on refugee experiences, as exemplified by a Bosnian refugee's reflection on Sweden's changing empathy. These events underscore the continued importance of addressing historical injustices and understanding the war's enduring consequences for Bosnia and its diaspora.
