Alija Izetbegovic
Alija Izetbegovic may best be known as the President who single-mindedly struggled for a just end to the conflict which ravaged his country in the 1990s. In the face of the indifference of Europe, which had lapsed on its fifty year old promise of 'never again' as concentration camps once more sprang up in its midst, he tirelessly campaigned for justice at home and abroad. To some he is difficult and uncompromising to others he is a man who sought to live his life by the highest of principles. As a prisoner of conscience in the 1980s he once wrote. 'When i lose the reasons to live, I shall die.'
