I’m sorry for the Serbian people
What I’m sorry for are all the people, that do not agree with the nationalistic movements in the country. People, that believe, that Kosova should be independent if they wish so, and people that now need to suffer because of all that is going on in the country.
I am writing this post, because I’m especially sorry for all the people, that should come to Slovenia as my guest, as guests of the Pro et contra institute. A month or so ago, me and my debatie, we took a group of 6 people to NiĆ„, a town in Serbia. We had a great time there, hanging out with people and doing workshops.
They should come to Slovenia on Friday, and to Ljubljana on Monday, but the did not get their Visas. Because of the riots, and the Slovenian Embassy in Belgrade being destroyed, they were not able to get their visas. That means, that they are not able to come to Slovenia. What I heard from them, they believe, that the going-ons in their country should not be happening, and are waiting for the peace in their country.
I’m sorry for all the people that were affected in that way because of the things that are going on in Belgrade and other cities, and I hope, that we won’t see any more violence. I have no problem with Serbians not agreeing with the things going on in Kosova, but, do not destroy and wound people because of that. That is not right.
I know this is not a directly debate related post, and if you mind it, sorry, but I just had to write this down.
