Prosecutor: Denial of Yugoslav and Rwanda Crimes Widespread

The chief prosecutor of war crimes in former Yugoslavia and genocide in Rwanda has warned that denial of these crimes is now widespread and efforts are underway to rewrite history. Serge Brammertz told the U.N. Security Council there is a refusal by officials and others to accept the facts gathered by U.N. tribunals documenting ethnic cleansing and other crimes in former Yugoslavia and genocide in Rwanda in 1994.
