The West German Parliament’s decision to extend the statute of limitations for Nazi war criminals until 1969 was criticized here today as “unsatisfactory” by Dusan Blagojevic, spokesman for the Yugoslav Foreign Ministry.
Addressing a press conference here, Mr. Blagojevic expressed the view that, following the Bonn Parliament’s decision, the statute of limitations for Nazi war criminals remained valid in West Germany, which, he said, was contrary to the provisions of international law and the norms of international morals.
