2006-10-05 12:18:00 Nikita Mikhalkov calls to defend Kosovo in the name of preservation of Orthodoxy in Europe Moscow, October 5, Interfax - The future of Orthodoxy in Europe and preservation of 'religious balance' in the world depend on the settlement of the Kosovo problem, famous film director Nikita Mikhalkov believes. 'I have no right to speak for the state as I am not an official representative of the country. But I am an Orthodox man, a Russian artist. For me Kosovo is not just a part of some territory but one of the living hearts of Orthodoxy', he said at a press conference in Belgrade after his meeting with Serbian Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica. For him, Mikhalkov said, the defense of Kosovo is not only the defense of a territory, which is 'a politicians' business'. 'For me it is the defense of the future of Orthodoxy and pan-Slavism as a whole', he stressed. The Balkans, he added, have always been a key to Europe and 'Kosovo is Europe's key', the Russkaya Linia website reports. 'Orthodoxy, which is experiencing revival in Russia, hinders a great many people who wish Russia's disintegration. Orthodoxy hinders the new world order by the very fact of its existence. Kosovo is only the first try. If their plan succeeds they will go even further. It will lead to a breach of the global religious balance', the art director stated. Kostunica, in his turn, pointed out that Kosovo had safeguarded Serbia throughout history. 'Now the time has come for Serbia to defend Kosovo in order to defend herself', the Serbian prime minister stressed. http://www.interfax-religion.com/?act=news&div=2102 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] =============== Group Moderator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] page at http://magazine.sorabia.net for more informations about current situation in Serbia http://www.sorabia.net Slusajte GLAS SORABIJE nas talk internet-radio (Serbian Only) http://radio.sorabia.net Yahoo!
