#RatkoMladic appeal:

Final decision on Ratko Mladic's appeal is another important step in achieving accountability for the most heinous crimes: genocide and crimes against humanity.

My deepest condolences to families of all victims.

[António Costa @eucopresident]

The final ruling by the international tribunal in the case against Ratko Mladić is another important step to provide justice to the victims.

It will help us all put the painful past behind us and to put the future first. #SrebrenicaMassacre
