The nicest dude I know is Serbian and he's a very outspoken about how Yugoslavia is sorely missed. But he's... Serbian. I'll never be able to make he and other Bosnian dude make amends. I don't know whether this is accomplishable within a few centuries.
... why do you think that? That's literally any group X and group Y in the Balkans. Yes, that was an issue in Yugoslavia, but that's because it wasn't being dealt with properly, especially under socialist development. That can and will be fixed in future projects.
Ah, I wasn't singling out either Serbians or Bosnians. But there was a genocide, we can't forget that. That and other aggressions in the Balkans between other groups take time to heal. Now, let's take it further: what will take for US and NATO populations deserve trust under socialism/communism? Do you think that can be done without reparations? That the victims don't want retribution? Even the late Marx was elevating the importance of the National Question.
