In a statement, the party said that Serbia was making up for several decades of failure by eliminating collective guilt of ethnic Hungarians in the villages of Curug (Csurog), Zabalj (Zsablya) and Mosorin (Mozsor).
Announcing the resolution, Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic said paying tribute to the innocent victims executed in 1944-1945 was a symbolic step in Serb-Hungarian reconciliation.
The Jobbik statement noted that Hungarian President Janos Ader had made an apology in the Serbian parliament last June for crimes committed by Hungarians against innocent Serbians during the second world war. Until now, a Serbian apology for the collective guilt measure against Hungarians had been lacking, it added.
Jobbik said more needs to be done in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, where to this day the Benes decrees are still in place.
