前波斯尼亚塞族军队指挥官拉特科·姆拉迪奇于2026年9月8日在贝尔格莱德举行葬礼,数千人参加了这场以军事荣誉举办的仪式23。姆拉迪奇曾于2017年因斯雷布雷尼察种族灭绝罪和危害人类罪被定罪12。1995年7月斯雷布雷尼察大屠杀期间,8000名波斯尼亚克男性和男孩遭杀害3。至少六名塞尔维亚部长参加了葬礼3。
这场葬礼在波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那引发严重分裂。波黑主席团主席丹尼斯·贝奇罗维奇称葬礼为"反文明行为"12。波黑外交部长埃尔梅丁·科纳科维奇宣布撤出驻贝尔格莱德大使馆几乎所有工作人员,仅保留大使12,领事服务将迁至萨格勒布和波德戈里察2。波黑随后驱逐两名塞尔维亚外交官,科纳科维奇称塞尔维亚越过了"红线"3。相比之下,塞族占多数的共和国塞族实体派官员参加葬礼,并为其进行辩护1。
欧盟和英国也对此表示强烈不满。欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩和欧洲理事会主席科斯塔表示"官方支持的要素和一些塞尔维亚高级官员的出席是深感遗憾的"3。欧盟外交与安全政策高级代表卡亚·卡拉斯指出,"塞尔维亚进入欧盟的道路需要对欧洲基本价值观和历史真实的明确承诺"3。英国外交部声称"姆拉迪奇主持的罪行是第二次世界大战以来在欧洲犯下的最严重罪行之一"3。
这一事件在两国大选前夕加剧了政治对立。波黑定于10月4日举行大选12,塞尔维亚选举预计在几周后进行2。班亚卢卡政治分析家坦尼亚·托皮奇表示,"30年来我们没有向前迈进。没有对历史黑暗面进行过严肃反思"1。
Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian Serb military commander convicted of genocide and crimes against humanity, was given a military funeral in Belgrade on September 8, 2026 23. The ceremony drew thousands of attendees, including at least six Serbian ministers, and was marked by military honors 3. Mladic had been serving a life sentence before his death last month 3.
The funeral has triggered a severe diplomatic rupture. Bosnia and Herzegovina's government responded swiftly by freezing relations with Serbia; the foreign ministry announced the withdrawal of almost all personnel from the Belgrade embassy, retaining only the ambassador 12. Consular services will be relocated to Zagreb and Podgorica 2. Bosnia's presidency chair Denis Becirovic condemned the funeral as "uncivilized behavior," warning of far-reaching consequences across the region 12. Foreign Minister Elmedin Konakovic declared that Serbia had crossed "every red line" 3.
The European Union and United Kingdom have also expressed strong disapproval. EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council President Charles Michel stated they were "deeply regretful" of the official elements and attendance of senior Serbian officials 3. EU High Representative Kaja Kallas said that Serbia's path to EU membership requires "a clear commitment to European fundamental values and historical truth" 3. The UK Foreign Office characterized Mladic's crimes as "among the most serious committed in Europe since the Second World War" 3.
The controversy unfolds as both countries approach elections. Bosnia will hold its general election on October 4, 2026 12, while Serbian elections are expected to take place within weeks 2. The Serb-majority entity within Bosnia sent officials to the funeral and defended Mladic 1. Political analyst Tanya Topic from Banja Luka observed that "for 30 years we have not moved forward; we have not had a critical confrontation with the dark side of our history" 12.
