Zogović: A nation that forgets its suffering risks repeating it The vice-president of DNP, Milun Zogović, stated that a nation that forgets its suffering risks its repetition. He recalled the 2004 pogrom in Kosovo and Metohija, where thousands of Serbs and Montenegrins were expelled, many were killed and injured, and numerous homes, cultural monuments, and churches were destroyed. Zogović emphasized the importance of remembering these events to honor the victims and preserve the identity of the Serbian people.

• Forgetting past suffering risks its repetition.
• The 2004 pogrom in Kosovo and Metohija led to the expulsion of thousands of Serbs and Montenegrins.
• During the pogrom, 28 people were killed, hundreds injured, and over 900 Serbian and Montenegrin homes were burned.
• 19 cultural monuments and 16 Orthodox churches were destroyed, along with thousands of religious artifacts.
• The destruction aimed to erase traces of the Serbian people’s existence in Kosovo and Metohija.
• Many towns and villages were ethnically cleansed, and Orthodox cemeteries were razed.
• It is crucial to remember, bear witness, and preserve the dignity of the victims and sacred sites.
