KOZARSKA DUBICA, APRIL 27 /SRNA/ - Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić said that nowhere did humanity come closer to hell than in Jasenovac.

"I am proud to be here with you today in Donja Gradina, because every year we change the fate that was intended for us — we show that we will live," Vučić emphasized in his address at the commemoration of the Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Genocide against Serbs, Jews, and Roma in the Independent State of Croatia from 1941 to 1945, and the 80th anniversary of the breakout of prisoners from the Jasenovac concentration camp at Donja Gradina.

He asked who had allowed the "Balkan Auschwitz," as it was called by Gideon Greif, to continue operating until May 4.

"How was it possible that the partisan brigades did not attack Jasenovac? Who allowed this death camp to keep running, to continue its work, and for almost no Serbs to survive? The Red Army entered Auschwitz, but no one entered Jasenovac," Vučić said.
