The UNPO participated in a protest vigil organized by the Society for Threatened Peoples International to mark the start of the trial of former Yugoslav president Slobodan Milosevic.

The vigil took place in The Hague on 12 February 2002, and was attended by several human rights activists and detainees of former Serb concentration camps and women from Srebrenica.

The objective was to draw attention to the fact that Milosevic’s policies, until this day are still causing a de facto partition of Bosnia.

Supporters of Milosevic and his party are preventing around 800 000 displaced Bosnians from returning to their homes in the area currently under Serb control.
