He described the ruling as tragic and regrettable.
"With this verdict the Hague tribunal has lost its credibility and the victims of the Greater Serbian policy and aggression have lost all hope that those most responsible, such as Seselj's sympathisers, condoners and followers of the Greater Serbian aggression on both Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, will be brought to justice," Petrov told the press in Zagreb when asked to comment on the ICTY verdict in the Seselj case.
"It is tragic that one of the architects of the Greater Serbia project, a warmonger and war criminal, who has on several occasions demonstrated his hatred of the Croatian people, should go unpunished by the Hague tribunal," Petrov said. "It is regrettable that this same person tried several times, with his scandalous behaviour, to turn the International Tribunal in The Hague into a circus and that he eventually succeeded with the present verdict."
