Skopje. “After last night’s attack against the monument to Tsar Stefan 
Dusan in Skopje and the damages caused to it now it is enough to only 
stay here in silence for a half an hour and put a black cloak on the 
Serbian Tsar,” reads a letter by Macedonian citizen Afrim Gasi, sent to 
FOCUS News Agency in connection to the tension around the monument of 
Serbian Tsar Stefan Dusan in downtown Skopje.

Earlier today Gasi, an ethnic Albanian, who is a citizen of Macedonia, 
insisted on pulling down the illegal monument.

In a new address he says that the purpose of the protest is to express a 
position on this pro-Serbian provocation and to find out the one that 
initiated the erection of this monument in the Macedonian capital city 
Skopje.

“Stefan Dusan’s place is in Serbia, or at least the yard of the Serbian 
Embassy in Skopje, but it is definitely not in the central part of the 
Macedonian capital,” Afrim Gasi writes.
