Genocide Remembered: Srebrenica Memorial Day, 11 July 2013, Lancaster House

For the first time in history, survivors, politicians and government officials gathered in London at Lancaster House to commemorate the anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide organised by UK-based charitable initiative Remembering Srebrenica. The Rt Hon William Hague spoke at the event, calling for a united Bosnia to lead the way into the European Union.

The UK is the only country in Europe outside Ex-Yugoslavia to commemorate Srebrenica Memorial day, in accordance with a 2009 EU Resolution establishing 11 July as the official day of remembrance for the victims of the Srebrenica Genocide.
