I said that not only had I just seen these checkpoints but that I had seen them before in Croatia and in Bosnia and that they meant that war was coming. The other guests disagreed. It was not just that they did not believe me it was that they did not want to believe me. And that I had seen before too of course. As war raged in Croatia, Bosnians smiled and said, “It won’t happen here, because everyone knows just how awful it would be if it did.” And now here we are again. A quarter of century since the end of the Bosnian war and almost seven years since the beginning of the conflict in eastern Tim Judah Ukraine and everything I have read in this report is British journalist, author of the book ever so familiar again. ‘In War Time: Stories from Ukraine’ There is a caveat though. There were many If experience has taught me anything it is that similarities between the Balkans and eastern sometimes you need distance to see things. I Ukraine but there were also some key differences. am not talking physical distance of course but The most important was or is that in the Balkans emotional distance. the conflicts were drawn on clear ethnic or at least identity lines. Serbs (Orthodox) v Croats Let me explain. During the 1990s I covered almost (Catholics) v Bosniaks (Muslims) v Albanians (not every moment of the Yugoslav wars. Actually more: Slavs). In eastern Ukraine the difference between I lived them, even more than most Yugoslavs in Russians and Ukrainians was entirely fluid – the sense that, as a journalist, I not only covered but as this report makes clear – with every year all of the conflicts, in Croatia, in Bosnia, in Kosovo that passes that is ever less of the case. If in the – but unlike them I was able to move back and non-government-held territories Ukrainian has forth across the frontlines. Then, after the wars, I been expunged and for many on the other side continued to cover this region. My next story will Russian is the language of the aggressor, then be about what 25-year-olds in Bosnia think. Why? new identities are being formed. Should we be Because the war there ended 25 years ago. surprised that the report reveals that younger people can be more nationalistic than their So what is the connection? In April 2014 in Ukraine parents? We have seen the same in the Balkans. I was stunned with a feeling of déjà vu.

Suddenly they thinking of the new generation. In the Balkans new thought their humdrum lives had meaning.

Then, they might not have done. In the second half of in Donetsk, I was invited to a dinner with a large the twentieth century Kosovo Albanian identity number of people and, as a foreigner, they asked morphed from being a regional one to a national “Does Ukraine need us?” The results of the survey in the areas of Donbas that are not controlled by the Ukrainian Government, the analysis of the opinions and the conclusions by a conflict expert 5 one.

Now the same is planes. happening in Donetsk and Luhansk. On the one hand for example, Bosnia is clearly The idea that we must know what people are a dysfunctional state. Across the region young thinking – even if it is not the entire story because people talk the nationalistic talk and so on. And people there are not free to speak their minds – yet, and yet… is entirely valid. But it does not mean of course that, just because you know what people on Many years ago I went to interview a newspaper the other side of the line think reunification or editor in Bulgaria. At the end I asked him if he knew peace is possible. Quite apart from the fact that editors from Belgrade and Zagreb and so on. He Kyiv and Moscow may have their own reasons said that during the wars of the 1990s he met them for keeping things as they are, the fact is that frequently but afterwards he lost touch with them. in recent times, no other directly comparable “Why was that?” I asked him. “Because they were conflict has ended peacefully with people only interested in talking to each other and went reconciled. Don’t forget of course too that the back to doing that,” he said. It dawned on me that biggest lie in international relations is that “there however much had been destroyed during the is no solution through violence”. In 1995 Croatia wars there was still a huge amount people had solved the problem of the breakaway Serbian in common and that included family and friends republic of Krajina by expunging it from the map now divided by new borders and much of what has militarily.

  • Eastern Ukraine: Detention and Death Sentences by Armed Groups
    Published on How does law protect in war? - Online casebook (https://casebook.icrc.org) Home > Eastern Ukraine: Detention And Death Sentences By Armed Groups Eastern Ukraine: Detention And Death Sentences By Armed Groups Case prepared by Mr. Elem Khairullin, LL.M. student at the Geneva Academy of International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights, under the supervision of Professor Marco Sassòli and Ms. Yvette Issar, research assistant, both at the University of Geneva. N.B. As per the disclaimer [1], neither the ICRC nor the authors can be identified with the opinions expressed in the Cases and Documents. Some cases even come to solutions that clearly violate IHL. They are nevertheless worthy of discussion, if only to raise a challenge to display more humanity in armed conflicts. Similarly, in some of the texts used in the case studies, the facts may not always be proven; nevertheless, they have been selected because they highlight interesting IHL issues and are thus published for didactic purposes.

An early presidential election was called, which took place on 25 May, when Piotr Poroshenko was elected in the first round.
