: International Appeal
Against the New World Order and for the Release of Sl. Milosevic
INTERNATIONAL INITIATIVE FROM
GREECE
Nineteen public figures of
Greece, from all political parties, signed the following international appeal
protesting against the new world order and demanding the release of Slobodan
Milosevic.
Among them there are people with international
prestige, such as Mikis Theodorakis, former government ministers of Greece,
vice-presidents of the Greek parliament, scientists and intellectuals.
They call upon public figures from all over the world to sign this appeal and to
mobilize in this direction.
INTERNATIONAL APPEAL
The dramatic events being
experienced by all of humanity owing to the unprecedented process of handing
over and selling out the former President of Yugoslavia, his indictment by and
deliverance to the so-called "International Court of Justice on former
Yugoslavia" violate and abolish all concepts of national sovereignty and
international law. These events were the result of the heavy and multiple
pressures exerted by NATO, whose leaders should be on trial for their attack
against Yugoslavia, in which they sowed death and destruction, flagrantly and
cynically violating the UN Founding Charter.
Through these
actions, an effort is being made to penalise international political life, to
overthrow International Law completely and to create a terrorist international
framework of "rules and institutions" that will bring to trial and convict all
those who resist the barbarity of the new international
order.
We protest strongly and express our absolute
opposition to these actions.
We call upon all those who
refuse to keep silent or to give their consent to the rule of "might is right"
and ask them to join us and mobilise for the release of Slobodan Milosevic,
former President of Yugoslavia, to bring a halt to these unacceptable processes,
and to prevent the penalisation of international political life.
