Issue 42 - July 13, 1992

Did the endless June negotiations and protest marches change anything in Serbia, except for having Milosevic surrounded in Dedinje?

The promotion of Seselj's Serbian Radical Party in Hrtkovci took place on May 6. On that occasion a list of some 17 people "who don't belong in the village" was presented. Seselj was there, too. That is when the moving out began - by hook or by crook.

The government that announced resistance to the blockade "up until the possible transition to the complete distribution of factors of production and commodities" (Mr. Bozovic), plainly demonstrated, in the distribution of gas and bank notes, its ability and the "marvels" of the system to which we are doomed. How will someone, who's not even able to distribute new bank notes today, be able to distribute flour, sugar, copper, sheet metal, cars, nails, summer holidays and travels, education and health services, population and territories tomorrow...

Will Radoman Bozovic get Milan Panic arrested?

No matter how hard Cosic and Panic try to ensure a peaceful transformation, the inhabitant of Tolstojeva 33 cannot but see this as the end of the world. Why should he step down when he still has his Sokolovic, and the ones who are doing the pushing don't have anything more than the half-naked students who wanted to get close to him?

Five of the six common sins of the SDS (Serbian Democratic Party), HDZ (Croatian Democratic Union), and SDA (Democratic Action Party), which Public Prosecutor Ivica Stanic is citing in his motion to ban the three parties (submitted to the Superior Court in Sarajevo on June 15, 1992), were committed at the outset of the new Bosnian-Herzegovinian regime. At that time they were still "in love with each other", perhaps it is all because of that.

The first Prime Minister of the new Yugoslavia has strongly accused the policies of the Serbian and Montenegrin leaderships. The Montenegrins are lauding the Prime Minister, and the Serbian leaders are reiterating through clenched teeth that they brought Cosic and Panic

With a few years' delay, the round table institution is being mentioned lately as Serbia's "life belt": not only would it help the country restore its image, it would also prevent civil war

The candidate for the post of federal prime minister designate will soon find a letter from the Serbian Citizens' Alliance's Foreign Relations Committee in his mailbox. Fifteen leading Belgrade experts in international law and politics (the Committee's members) will propose to Milan Panic "a democratic turn" which, they believe, is the only thing that can lift the United Nations' sanctions against Serbia and Montenegro
