Special
Item on Kosovo
Oral
Statement by the Transnational Radical Party
Delivered
in the special Session on Kosovo
by Paolo
Pietrosanti
April 1st 1999
Madam Chair,
the entire
international community and each individual have the
responsibility to have left a people and a country
alone. This people is the one of Serbia, is the one
of Yugoslavia.The comunity of the states has left
this country in the hands of a person as Mr
Milosevic.Such a responsibility cannot be hidden.And
it is first of all for the sake of Serbs that you,
that the community of States has to take strong
decisions. Starting from the decision to make a
policiy completely different from the one that has
been managed so far for so many years.
Mahatma Gandhi,
Mohandas Gandhi used to say that there is a duty not
to accept violence. The bes way how to respond to
violence is the nonviolent action; when there is no
chanche for that, and such a chanche has been denied
by the absence of politics, by the absence of the
community of States, by the absence, also, of my
Europe, violence is much better, and it is a duty to
act using violence, rather than being a coward.
I am quoting Mohandas
Karamchand Gandhi, the face of whom is in the symbol
of my organization, the Transnational Radical Party.
The same organization
has opened several months ago an initiative, the one
of the request, of the juridically relevant request
to the General Prosecutor of the International
Tribunal on former Yugoslavia to indict Mr Milosevic
for crimes against humanity.
Such a request has
been signed by over 180.000 individuals, among them
over 1.000 MPs, and among them dozens of Members of
Government from dozens of States.
Well, this request has
been delivered time ago to the General Prosecutor of
the Tribunal on former Yugoslavia. We ask ourselves
and everybody: which evidences is Ms Arbour waiting
for before opening a trial?
Out of ghe door you
will find a report that demonstrates the chain of
command that brings to Mr Milosevic, and there are
juridical prooves. Also the Report has been already
delivered to the International Tribunal on former
Yugoslavia - you can have it, it is just out of the
door.
We want Mr Milosevic
to be trialed, to have all the juridical warranties
each of us want for her/him her/himself.
Thank you, Madam Chair
