Sažetak
Jasenovac is a topic that affects Croatia’s relations with its neighbors, Serbia and the Serb entity in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH), Republika Srpska. Not only have the commemorations at Donja Gradina (BiH) featured increasingly nationalistic rhetoric, an exhibition in the United Nations on Jasenovac sponsored by the Serbian government in January 2018 resulted in diplomatic protests from Croatia, and the issue was so sensitive that Serbian President Aleksandar Vučič refused to discuss “one of the most painful issues for the Serb people” during his visit to Zagreb in February 2018. The analysis of the Jasenovac commemoration thus provides and insight into both the domestic and international aspects of Croatia’s ability to deal with the legacy of the Second World War.
