  • Thousands of mourners arrived early at Belgrade’s Serbian Orthodox Church of St. Luke, where Mladic’s body lay in state.

  • Patriarch Porfirije led the service, and soldiers carried the coffin draped in the national flag to the cemetery.

  • In 2017, Mladic was sentenced to life imprisonment for the Srebrenica massacre of more than 8,000 Muslim men and boys.

  • EU officials condemned glorification of war criminals, while Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos canceled an upcoming visit to Serbia in protest.
  • The glorification of genocide is not honor, it's a shame.
