Secret documents on US support for ethnic cleansing of Serbs in Croatia

“Operation Storm”* is not only a Croatian, but also an American criminal operation against Serbs, in which the American ambassador to Serbia, Christopher Hill, was personally involved. This is confirmed by hitherto unpublished Hague documents

While in public during the 1990s, the Americans advocated peaceful solutions and negotiations, behind closed doors they were warmongers who, in addition to supplying the Croats with arms, provided military training and directly coordinated the combat operations of the Croatian army against the Serbian civilian population.

The same thing we experienced during the war in Kosovo and Metohija in 1999, the same thing we see in the case of Russia, where it is the Americans who advocate peace, arming Ukraine en masse and even stressing that arming Ukraine will lead to peace.

This is what we have today in Kosovo and Metohija, precisely with the American ambassador Christopher Hill, who has largely taken over the management of both the foreign and domestic policy of Serbia, where he advocates peace with the Albanian separatists in exactly the same way, while the American army is training the Albanian separatists, building military bases and importing weapons in the province of Southern Serbia.

In addition to the ample evidence that has been presented in recent years of direct US involvement on the side of Muslims and Croats in the wars of the 1990s, we present to the public a confidential document that has also been used as evidence at The Hague Tribunal. It is an official recording made after a meeting between Croatian embassy officials and American envoys, at which the Croats were given the green light to carry out the criminal Operation Storm.

Namely, on July 31, 1995, just four days before the criminal Operation Storm, there was a secret meeting of Croatian Ambassador to the United States, Miomir Žužula, Petar Šarčević and Sinisa Petrović, with the then Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke, Ambassador Robert Fraser and current Ambassador to Serbia Christopher Hill.

In the aforementioned meeting, the American side stated that the Americans were very pleased with the success of the Croatian army and the special operation against civilians, especially the ethnic cleansing of Serbs from the area of Western Slavonia. The Americans are also pleased with the operation “Blesak”, in which the Croats expelled more than 18,000 Serbs from their homes, in which 283 people were killed and 283 were missing, including 57 women and nine children.

At the meeting, the Americans add that their advice on strengthening the alliance between the Croatian and Muslim armies bore fruit during the fighting in the Bihać area:

“American representatives have congratulated the Croatian forces several times on the latest military successes, expressing their satisfaction with such developments directly. This, on the one hand, removes the military threat to Bihać, while at the same time they are pleased to see the situation in the context of strengthening the Federation of BiH, which they consider “their brainchild,” the aforementioned report states.

The report further states that the American side has given the go-ahead for the military action around BiH, and not only in the form of moral support, and as a conclusion it states that the American side is satisfied with the development of the situation, detailed report of the Croats, and that the Croats are not heading for negotiations with the Serbs, but rather to solve the Serb problem in the Serbian Krajina by military means.
