A people who forget innocent victims risk losing a part of their own humanity, said Minister of Public Administration Maraš Dukaj.
The Ministry of Public Administration (MPA) announced that Dukaj, as part of the Montenegrin state delegation, attended a commemoration at the Potočari Memorial Center today to mark July 11 - the International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Srebrenica Genocide.
The statement added that, paying respect to the innocent victims and expressing sympathy with their families, Dukaj said that Srebrenica remains a permanent reminder of how far hatred, intolerance and dehumanization can take them.
"In this place, words are never enough. Before the victims of Srebrenica, we speak primarily with silence, respect and truth. It is our duty to preserve memory, because a people who forget innocent victims risk losing a part of their own humanity. Therefore, let memory be our responsibility, and humanity our permanent choice," said Dukaj.
He added that cultivating a culture of remembrance is not only an expression of reverence for innocent victims, but also a shared obligation to build a society that respects human dignity, diversity, and the right of every person to live in peace and security.
"Montenegro remains consistently committed to nurturing the culture of remembrance, affirming the values of peace, dialogue and mutual respect, convinced that only through truth, responsibility and solidarity can a safer future be built for generations to come," the MPA statement reads.
