    Today we pause to remember the more than 8,300 victims of the Srebrenica genocide and the families who still grieve. The European Union remains firmly committed to Bosnia and Herzegovina's European future as a sovereign, united, multiethnic and democratic country.

    ⚠️ 10 July 1976: An explosion at a chemical plant in Seveso 🇮🇹 released a toxic dioxin cloud over the town, causing one of the worst man-made environmental disasters in Europe. It played an important role in strengthening Europe’s industrial safety framework.
