SERBIA
Vergès has auto-proclaimed himself Milosevic’s lawyer despite Milosevic’s refusal. Milosevic never wanted Vergès to represent him in any way, shape or form. Nonetheless, one year after the beginning of Milosevic’s trial in The Hague, Vergès published in March 2003 a book entitled “Justice for the Serbian people” where he develops the “rupture defense” that he would have used while refuting the legitimacy of the trial.
Six months after Milosevic’s death, Vergès goes to Serbia to attend a meeting of the Serbian extreme right party.
