We oppose all kinds of crimes against humanity, racism, Islamophobia, xenophobia and extremist ideology and will continue to fight resolutely for preventing the recurrence of similar sufferings in the future.
Crime of genocide was codified for the first time in the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide dated 9 December 1948. As the first human rights treaty adopted by the UN General Assembly, the Convention signified the international community’s commitment to ‘never again’ after the atrocities committed during the Second World War.
Holocaust/Shoah was the systematic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately 11 million people by the Nazi regime in Germany and its collaborators during the Second World War.
As a result of the Khmer Rouge regime’s brutal actions, the country mentioned above came to be known as “Killing Fields”, and at least 1.7 million people lost their lives.
The wave of violence that lasted for 100 days came to an end when the RPF entered the capital city Kigali on July 4, 1994, and the “brain cadre” that took part in the genocide started to flee to the Democratic Republic of Congo. Thus, the 100-day genocide officially ended, but it cost the lives of approximately one million Tutsis.
The Bosnian Serb forces carried out the biggest massacre of the Bosnian War in the city of Srebrenica in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which was declared a “safe zone” by the UN Security Council resolution 819/1993, in July 1995.
