The UN General Assembly voted Thursday to establish an annual day of remembrance for the 1995 Srebrenica genocide, despite furious opposition from Bosnian Serbs and Serbia.
The resolution written by Germany and Rwanda -- countries synonymous with genocides in the 20th century -- received 84 votes in favor, 19 against with 68 abstentions. It makes July 11 "International Day of Remembrance of the Srebrenica Genocide."
