Stevan Moljević
Stevan Moljević (6 January 1888 – 15 November 1959) was a Yugoslav and Serbian politician, lawyer and publicist, president of the Yugoslav-French Club, president of the Yugoslav-British Club, president of Rotary International Club of Yugoslavia and member of the Central National Committee of Yugoslavia (CNK) in World War II. In his 1941 memorandum "Homogeneous Serbia", Moljević advocates the creation of the Greater Serbia and its ethnic cleansing of the non-Serb population. This committee had secondary status while Moljević did not rise to prominence in this committee until 1943, which undercut the perception about Moljević's "Homogeneous Serbia" being the centerpiece of coherent set of Chetnik war objectives. Early life Stevan Moljević was born to Jovan and Mitra Moljević (''née'' Babić) on 6 January 1888 in Rudo, Austria-Hungary. He finished primary school in the town and later joined Young Bosnia, a revolutionary movement which aimed to unite all South Slavs into ...
