abstract
  • In 1989, the Yugoslav government under President Slobodan Milošević commemorated the 600-year anniversary of the battle, with Milošević referencing the battle to rally the Serb people to resist surrendering Kosovo. Yugoslavia's intransigence in the region ultimately led to the 1999 NATO air attacks. Milošević's lieutenant Victor Drazen, and later his sons, also drew inspiration from the historical event. Victor Drazen used The Rose of Kosovo as a piece of propaganda to rally support around the Black Dogs, while Andre Drazen founded the pro-Serbian group Kosovo/1389 while attending the University of Belgrade.
