NATO spokeswoman Oana Lungescu marked the anniversary of NATO aggression against Serbia by re-tweeting a cynical banner. Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Serbia found this tweet to be disrespectful to the Serbian victims.
In response to media inquiries for clarification of the announcement on Twitter, a spokeswoman for NATO told B92:
“Re-tweet was not intended to show disrespect to the victims of the conflict in 1999. Any loss of life is tragic. This was a re-tweet of the massage that thanked NATO for the rescue of civilians from ethnic cleansing in Kosovo. NATO reacted quickly to protect the people of Kosovo in 1999. and our peacekeeping mission KFOR continues to provides a safe environment for all people in Kosovo under UNSCR 1244”
Dear citizens of Serbia, do you find this tweet to be disrespectful to the Serbian victims of NATO aggression?
