Remembering the Sarajevo siege April 1992 - April 2008
Today is going to be 16th anniversary of the beginning of the Sarajevo siege, and also – the beginning of the war in Bosnia. Not a really tranquil morning for me. Sarajevo siege, as the longest siege in the history of the modern warfare introduced the new word – urbicide, denoting brutal destruction against the city, and everything that city represents. Now when I am a parent, and growing older as well - it becomes more and more petrifying for me to recall the facts about thousands of kids killed during the siege, more than 12000 civilians killed and about 50 000 wounded. This is only about Sarajevo, without the rest of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes described once this world as terrified and terrifying. Today is the day when I am recalling his thoughts with bitterness.
