The fate of the monuments is decided by a state commission, without clear criteria, without the right to appeal. This is pure Serbophobia,&#8221; he emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gujon says that this represents a comprehensive attempt to erase memory, humiliate the dead, and systematically remove traces of Serbian existence in the area of present-day Croatia. &#8220;These monuments are not symbols of hatred, but symbols of loss, suffering, and resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While such discrimination against Serbs is carried out before the eyes of Europe, it should be remembered that Croatia ethnically cleansed a quarter of a million Serbs in 1995, and today it is trying to erase their memory, identity, and the traces they left behind. Serbia remembers its sons, its fathers, its dead,&#8221; Gujon concluded, as reported by Tanjug. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#bd4444\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/report-on-serbia-presented-in-the-european-parliament-the-collapse-of-the-canopy-became-a-tragic-symbol-of-system-corruption-video\/\" title=\"\">REPORT ON SERBIA PRESENTED IN THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: \u201cThe collapse of the canopy became a tragic symbol of system corruption!\u201d (VIDEO)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/two-eu-countries-ban-vucics-flight-the-president-of-serbia-will-not-be-able-to-pass-on-the-way-to-moscow\/\" title=\"\">TWO EU COUNTRIES BAN VU\u010cI\u0106\u2019S FLIGHT: The President of Serbia will not be able to pass on the way to Moscow!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serious-incident-in-belgrade-part-of-the-ceiling-collapsed-in-kbc-bezanijska-kosa-a-nurse-injured\/\" title=\"\">SERIOUS INCIDENT IN BELGRADE: Part of the ceiling collapsed in KBC Be\u017eanijska kosa, a nurse injured!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Source<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong>Politika, <strong>Foto<\/strong>:Uprava za saradnju sa dijasporom i Srbima u regionu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Director of the Office for Public and Cultural Diplomacy, Arno Gujon, today condemned the adoption of a new law in Croatia that allows the removal of Serbian gravestones erected after 1990.
