Does this evidence finally answer the question of who, ultimately, was responsible?\u00a0 Contrary to widespread assumptions and the verdict in the Karad\u017ei\u0107 case, can it be that Mladi\u0107 holds sole responsibility, and Karad\u017ei\u0107 was not directly involved?<\/p>\n<p>James Gow is Professor of International Peace and Security and Director of the International Peace and Security Programme at King\u2019s College London.
