From: Rick Rozoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Russian Communist Chief Sends Message of Support to Milosevic MOSCOW, Jul 5, 2001 -- (Agence France Presse) Russia's Communist leader Gennady Zyuganov sent a message of support Wednesday to "political prisoner" Slobodan Milosevic and assured him that "hundreds of thousands" of people here stood behind the jailed former Yugoslav leader. "In the name of hundreds of thousands of Russian Communists, I send you a message of solidarity and support," Zyuganov wrote in a telegram sent to the UN detention unit in The Hague, to which Milosevic was extradited Thursday. "We view this so-called extradition to The Hague as an abduction, as a harsh infringement of human rights, as a crime," Zyuganov wrote in the telegram, a copy of which was obtained by AFP. Zyuganov also wished Milosevic "strong will and confidence in the righteousness of your cause." _________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
