However, U.S. State Department also gave positive assessment of the work of the Special War Crimes Court which “advanced on several war crimes trial despite certain political pressure and criminal threats,” at the same time welcoming governments’ efforts aimed at suppressing people trafficking, adding that the number of ethnically-motivated assaults significantly decreased.
:"Teaching of the Holocaust is incorporated into the Serbian school curriculum, and the role of the Serbian government during that period is also discussed. However, there was a tendency among some commentators to minimize and reinterpret the role of Serbian leaders during the Holocaust, casting them as victims of foreign occupiers when in fact many leaders of that time collaborated with the Nazis and began campaigns against the Jewish population even before the Nazis invaded Yugoslavia."
Again, this is totally innacruate and untrue, because many historical texts have misinterpeted the Serbian Government during the Nazi Occupation of Yugoslavia.
General Milan Nedic was a highly decorated soldier during WWI and a General of the Yugoslav Royal Military.
The Nazi occupiers were killing 1-100 civilians for every German soldier killed. The TITO Communist Partisans did not care about the Serbian Civilians deaths and continued without impunity to kill German Soldiers.
Milan Nedic did not want to take the post of PM of the Provisional Serbian Government , but for the sake of the Yugoslav civilians, he took it under several concessions from Nazi Germany who were forced to reinforce Serbia with German soldiers.
Milan Nedic saved many Jews ,however he could not save all of them. The propoganda against this man especially reinforced by the TITO Communists is well documented. If the US state department wants to verify the role of Nedic, ask King Peter II Karadjeordjevic who resides in Belgrade, or Princess Elizabeth Karadejeordjevic who resides in New York, the daughter of Prince Paul of Yugoslavia.
