AN OPEN LETTER TO THE SERBIAN MINISTER OF INTERNAL
        AFFAIRSWith this letter we inform
        the Ministry of Internal Affairs that we, the Students of
        the Universities in Belgrade, have walked today, on 3rd
        February 1997, the same places where the peaceful
        demonstrators, citizens of Belgrade have been just 12
        hours ago, when one of the most brutal attacks on the
        freedom and honor of Serbia was made. 
        We consider it our duty and an obligation to ask
        for the responsibility of all those who wish to make a
        division between "good" and "bad"
        demonstrators, and to demand that you change your
        decision to normalize the traffic on the cost of human
        lives into a decision to declare the state of emergency
        and so give a true meaning to your previous actions.We
        emphasize that the victims hurt in your efforts to
        normalize traffic are mostly students,who you can not
        deprive of the right to be the citizens as well, with
        your night-sticks. 
        We ask you to call your barbaric methods with
        appropriate names. We consider the fact that we have had
        the privilege of walking the blood-stained streets
        freely, to be the culmination of hypocrisy of the
        government and we state that we will be on the side of
        truth and justice, i.e. on the side of the citizens of
        Belgrade till the end. 
        The Students of Belgrade
