What an incredible honour to be asked to deliver The Immortal Memory Toast at the Caledonian Society of Bosnia in #Sarajevo. 130 guests including Ambassadors, Diplomats, the High Representative and many wonderful Bosnians. #Scotland what a Global brand! π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώπ§π¦

Great to see Sabina whose powerful testimony reminded us that genocide doesn't start overnight but with ordinary people who begin to dehumanise others. Great to hear politicians & young people determined to learn lessons of past. @Hello_Sabina @ScotGovFM @ChristinaSNP @HMD_UK
