Ethnic Cleansing

Also known as genocide. A translation of a Serbo-Croation phrase first used in 1991 when a Serbian building supervisor used the term in a London Times interview, and it was later used by the Croatian Supreme Council. Russia also used it to describe Azerbaijani-Armenian conflict in the province of Nagorno-Karabakh.
