    THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL FOR THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA CASE NO. IT-99-36-PT THE PROSECUTOROF THE TRIBUNAL AGAINST RADOSLAV BRDJANIN MOMIR TALIC THIRD AMENDED INDICTMENT The Prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, pursuant to her authority under Article 18 of the Statute of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia ("the Statute of the Tribunal"), charges: RADOSLAV BRDJANIN and MOMIR TALIC with GENOCIDE, CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY, GRAVE BREACHES OF THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS OF 1949, and VIOLATIONS OF THE LAWS OR CUSTOMS OF WAR, as set forth below: BACKGROUND 1. In November 1990, democratic elections were held in Bosnia and Herzegovina. There were three main parties, each of which was identified with one of the three principal population groups in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Party of Democratic Action, the SDA, was identified, in the main, as the Bosnian Muslim national party. The Serbian Democratic Party, the SDS, was identified as the principal Serbian national party. The Croatian Democratic Union, the HDZ, was primarily identified as the Croatian national party. On the Republic level, the SDA won the most seats in the Republic Assembly, followed by the SDS and then the HDZ. The remaining seats were split between other parties, including the former communist party. 2. By the time of the 1990 elections, the difficulties regarding the union of republics within the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia ("SFRY") had become apparent. The election results meant that, as time went on, the SDS would be unable through democratic means to keep the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina in a Serb-dominated Yugoslavia.

    FINAL considerations 2151 2152 * * * The results of up to date scientific research, including results of current scientific research, and other pending studies (fundamental, heuristic, longitudinal and panel studies), of empiric and theoretical character, clearly confirm two initial, basic, relevant, fundamental empiric and scientific facts surrounding contemporary events and situations in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina at the end of the 20th century: - first, aclassic armed aggression was carried against the Republic od Bosnia and Herzegovina, that is, crime against peace and safety of humanity, which is, according to basic interpretation, understanding and definition, an international armed conflict, and - second, the gravest crime of all was committed in the occupied territories of an independent and internationally recognized Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, a member of the United Nations, in towns under siege and in the territory of the United Nations – UN Safe Areas, including the free territories, against Bosniacs, members of (protected) national, ethnic, and religious groups as such – a crime of genocide. Serbian nationalistic elite (intellectual, political, military, and clerical), in the nineties of the 20th century, based on a political and genocidal project – Serbian great-state project “all Serbs in one state”, whose primary objective is made of setting up a single (great) Serbian state in the Balkans, in which “the whole Serbian population” would live – “uniting all Serbs in the same state structure”, which (project)

  • Landscaped Regionalization of Una - Sana Canton
    Acta geographica Bosniae et Herzegovinae 2016, 5, 19-27 Original scientific paper __________________________________________________________________________________ LANDSCAPED REGIONALIZATION OF UNA - SANA CANTON Aida Korjenić University of Sarajevo, Faculty of Science, Department of Geography, Zmaja od Bosne 33-35, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina For the purposes of regional and spatial planning microregionalization are of the most importance. In the complex allocation of geographical units are analyzed and mapped the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of each of the geocomponents. Based on the processed identification physical-geographic factor and analysis of existing socio - geographic features of the Una-Sana Canton, previously separated three physiognomic unit size of areas. In this paper went further in regionalization and defining smaller territorial units, sub- areas. Within three areas singled out seven sub-areas, and qualitative method of valorization is determined by their purpose. Key words: landscaped regionalization, Una Sana Canton, sub-area INTRODUCTIONS Physical geographical regionalization is considered one of the main problems of modern physical geography. It consists of a sepa- ration of individual territorial units, physical-geographic region that objecti- vely exist in nature and together form the geographical environment. The scientific significance of the physical regionaliza- tion is that the separation of individual regions is performed on the basis of a detailed study of the natural characteristics of certain territories and establishing the principles that led to the spatial differenti- ation of natural processes in it. Such concerns have led to the formation and development of specific territorial units, higher or lower rank. The current geo- graphical regionalization of Bosnia and Herzegovina was performed mainly in two levels or degrees: macro (region) and mesoregional level (sub-region).
