AN OPEN LETTER TO THE SERBIAN MINISTER OF INTERNAL
AFFAIRSWith this letter we inform
the Ministry of Internal Affairs that we, the Students of
the Universities in Belgrade, have walked today, on 3rd
February 1997, the same places where the peaceful
demonstrators, citizens of Belgrade have been just 12
hours ago, when one of the most brutal attacks on the
freedom and honor of Serbia was made.
We consider it our duty and an obligation to ask
for the responsibility of all those who wish to make a
division between "good" and "bad"
demonstrators, and to demand that you change your
decision to normalize the traffic on the cost of human
lives into a decision to declare the state of emergency
and so give a true meaning to your previous actions.We
emphasize that the victims hurt in your efforts to
normalize traffic are mostly students,who you can not
deprive of the right to be the citizens as well, with
your night-sticks.
We ask you to call your barbaric methods with
appropriate names. We consider the fact that we have had
the privilege of walking the blood-stained streets
freely, to be the culmination of hypocrisy of the
government and we state that we will be on the side of
truth and justice, i.e. on the side of the citizens of
Belgrade till the end.
The Students of Belgrade
