Amid intensified public debates regarding recent events organized by members of the Serbian community in Croatia, several media portals and social media profiles in recent weeks have linked the visual identity of the exhibition \u201cSerbian Woman, Heroine of the Great War\u201d, which was scheduled to be held at the Serbian Cultural Center in Vukovar, with a symbol allegedly bearing war-propagandistic meaning or functioning as a provocation. The supposedly contentious element was a \u201cflower symbol\u201d on the exhibition poster, which the authors of these claims identified as identical to the brooch worn by Hague convict Ratko Mladi\u0107 on his lapel during the hearing in which he was sentenced to life imprisonment for committing war crimes. In addition to portals such as Narod.hr (available here<\/a>, archived here<\/a>), Direktno.hr (available here<\/a>, archived here<\/a>), and Maxportal (available here<\/a>, archived here<\/a>), the same claim also spread across social media, including through the Facebook page \u201cKolinda Grabar Kitarovi\u0107 \u2013 na\u0161a predsjednica\u201d (available here<\/a>, archived here<\/a>) where the post was shared more than 470 times. <\/p>\n
