Statement of support for the citizensŐ struggle for democracy in Serbia

For the past 21 days many thousands of citizens and students of Belgrade
University together with those from other towns throughout Serbia and
Montenegro have been peacefully protesting against the denial of democracy by
the President, Slobodan Milosevic. Milosevic and the Serbian authorities have
refused to accept the democratic victory of the opposition parties in the
recent local government elections. The students are publicly supported by more
than 1200 university professors. From 9th December 1996, theatres in Belgrade
shut down their stage lights in solidarity with the students and to express
their feelings about the anti-democratic arrogance of the Serbian regime.

Intellectuals - academics, writers, artists and actors from most European
countries, including France and Germany - have expressed their support to the
new generation of Serbia for their courage and strong will for change, for
their right to a better and wiser future.

So far British universities and intellectuals are silent.

If you wish to break that silence, please could you endorse the following
statement of support and return it to

Radmila Mileusnic
Former Professor of Biochemistry, School of Medicine, Belgrade.

Miroslav Simic
Former Professor of Immunology, School of Medicine, Belgrade.

Because the Serbian authorities are also interfering with free communication,
including the email system, we ask you to distribute the statement to friends
and colleagues, asking them to send their message of support to us, and we
will forward it to Belgrade. We will also release the statement together with
the list of signatories to the British press.
