"Symbol of hatred and death": Croatian "veterans" burned five-pointed star
Former participants in the Balkan wars that followed the collapse of Yugoslavia held an action, showing their attitude to the five-pointed star. They arranged the burning of her stylized image as "a symbol of evil and the occupation of Croatia."
The event took place in Vinkovci next to a monument dedicated to forty residents of the village, who, according to the "veterans", were allegedly groundlessly killed by partisans from the 38th Macedonian and 21st Serbian divisions at the entrance to the settlement on April 13, 1945.

As the "veterans" point out, the Council of the European Union recently issued a declaration prohibiting the glorification of totalitarian regimes, including communism:
At the same time, the protesters are unhappy with the fact that after their announcement in the media about their intention to hold this event, the press refused to cover it:
- the former volunteers are indignant, pointing out that they are non-partisan.
- explained the Croatian "veterans".
It is quite possible that, speaking of forbidden symbols, they mean the Ustasha swastika - Croatian fascists who considered themselves the descendants of the Goths and committed genocide against Serbs, Jews and Gypsies.
