An attempt of treason and shameful capitulation of the country is going on! The decree by which members of DOS politburo in Federal Government have accepted extradition of our citizens to the Hague Tribunal is an unprecedented anticonstitutional and antipopular act that puts under the question survival of the federal state, our freedom and sovereignty. This unprecedented decision has been prepared and followed by a series of lies and manipulations such as: alleged commitments accepted in Dayton, alleged unity of the international community, alleged prospects of our better treatment in donors' conferences... They've been telling us about forgiving of the interests grown during the period of embargo and aggression, but they haven't been telling that we shall pay many times more by loosing the right for war reparations, by paying compensations to Bosnia and Croatia and by selling out our economy. The real aim of this in the world history unprecedented decision is the amnesty of NATO criminals and imposing the collective guilt to the Serbian people for all past and future sufferings in the region. So that the Serbian people loses all prospectives and become an object of mass deportations to foreign political judges financed by Soros and American agencies. DOS just destroyed the Federal Government. Due to resistance in Montenegro, they want to destroy the Federal State as well. They are attacking the Yugoslav Army. The Presidents of Yugoslavia and Serbia are not only failing to protect the constitutional order, but are also becoming a cover for its undermining. DOS blackmails and misuses judiciary. The economic system has been fallen and poverty becomes massive. Education, health-care, culture are humiliated. The country drowns hopelessly deep. Respected citizens, Say decisively NO to the traitors of the people and the country! Say NO to the ones ready to sell the Serbian soul and honor for a handful of dollars! The people that deserved admiration of the world for its heroism can not accept the major humiliation! The Serbian people will never recognize their capitulation! Let us unite to protect democracy, sovereignty and constitutional order! Let us protect Slobodan Milosevic and each citizen of this country! Belgrade, June 23, 2001 THE SOCIALIST PARTY OF SERBIA Head Committee Belgrade, June 23, 2001 THE STATEMENT The Executive Committee of the Socialist Party of Serbia warns that the decision of the DOS Politburo to adopt the federal decree about extradition of Yugoslav citizens to the Hague Tribunal represents a most severe violation of the Constitution and paves the way for imposition of the martial law in the country. Since the DOS regime have failed in the attempt to pass the anticonstitutional law, they decided to adopt a decree which in its essence abolishes the multiparty parliamentary system. It is now obvious that DOS takes control over the state by decrees and that there is nothing left of the rule of law. The Federal Government is not working. The Presidents of Yugoslavia and Serbia who are obliged to protect the Constitution as well as interests and dignity of the people and the country are not reacting to the major violation of the Constitution and even more, they are becoming a coverage for the policy that produces serious harms to the country and the people. The interests of the people can not be subordinated to anyone's personal, leaders' or political ambitions. No one has right to violate the Constitution which forbids extradition of our citizens, nor can accept commitments in contradiction with the interests of the people. No one has right to diminish and insult the thousands of victims of the NATO aggression, nor to forgive the mass destruction and amnesty the ones responsible for the crimes against the peace and humanity. The aim of the DOS decree is, by the surrender of our citizens, to impose the collective guilt to the Serbian people for everything that happened in the past. The actions of DOS and of the Soros representatives in the Federal Government are unprecedented in the world history. To all those who are taking part in it or are agreeing with it must be clear that they are bearing the responsibility for the unforeseeable consequences. Since they act contrary to the Constitution and to their powers - both they and the so-called International Community must know that Serbian people and our citizens will never recognize such acts. The leadership of the Socialist Party of Serbia, on behalf of the highest Party organs and on behalf of the Parliamentary Groups in Federal and Serbian Assemblies, have sent a letter to the president of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Vojislav Kostunica, demanding that violation of the Constitution must be stopped, as well as the system of capitulation derived from the anticonstitutional decree on extradition. THE SOCIALIST PARTY OF SERBIA Belgrade, June 23, 2001 THE STATEMENT The Socialist Party of Serbia underlines that by the today's DOS decree an unprecedented coup has been performed against the constitutional order of the country and constitutional protection of all citizens of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and in the first place of the defenders of the fatherland, has been abolished. The Socialist Party of Serbia as the major opposition party considers this as an disgraceful fraud of the people, who will never recognize such an act. The Socialist Party of Serbia decided to send immediately an appeal to the Federal Constitutional Court to judge the legality of the decree of the DOS part of the Federal Government. The Socialist Party of Serbia expects that the Federal Constitutional Court will: 1. Declare the decree of the DOS part of the Federal Government unconstitutional, since the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia explicitly forbid the extradition of their citizens; 2. Prevent immediately the implementation of any individual act or action that might be based on that unconstitutional decree, since it can make irreversible harmful consequences for the interests of the people and state, until the final decision will be made. ------------------------------------------- Macdonald Stainsby Rad-Green List: Radical anti-capitalist environmental discussion. http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/rad-green ---- Leninist-International: Building bridges in the tradition of V.I.
