The Serbian expert compared the use of depleted uranium in Yugoslavia to the 1945 nuclear attack on Japan.

BELGRADE, October 5. /TASS/. The use of munitions containing depleted uranium during NATO’s 1999 bombing of Yugolavia was an “ecocide on a planetary scale,” a prominent Serbian expert on environmental issues, Prof. Velimir Nedeljkovic, has said.

“Almost 20 years have passed since 1999, and we have only started fighting for the truth,” the expert said during the presentation of the “Uranium-238. My story” documentary in Belgrade. “Back in 2000, it was already clear to me that it was not just an environmental disaster, but an ecocide not even of a regional, but of a planetary scale.”
