In 2009 he called for the official recognition of January 27 as Holocaust Remembrance Day and July 11 as Srebrenica Genocide Remembrance Day.[1] His proposal was voted down by Bosnian Serb MPs. Also together with MPs Remzija Kadrić and Ekrem Ajanović, he proposed to the BH parliament a change to the Criminal Code of Bosnia and Herzegovina where Holocaust, genocide and crimes against humanity denial would be criminalized. [2] Huskić commemorated the passing of Marek Edelman, the famous Warsaw ghetto commander and friend of Bosnia & Herzegovina [3] On 12.02,2010, Huskic's initiative to mark 27 January as Holocaust Remembrance Day finally passed the first stage in Parliament procedure after almost a year of resistance from Serb delegates.[4]

He is also known as the Bosnian William Proxmire for his persistence in advocating for genocide victims.
