An Open Letter to President Kostunica from a Belgrade University Professor June 2, 2001 For whom are you really acting? BELGRADE, June 1 - We received the following open letter to the Yugoslav president Vojislav Kostunica from Dr. Djordje Blagojevic, professor of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University in Belgrade. Honorable Mr. President, Having in mind all what happen during last few months, and Your reactions to these events, I do not expect any reaction to momentary situation at the Serbian Parliament and to my letter. Nevertheless, I am writing to pacify my scruples, and to ensure that my children and one day my grandchildren, do not to criticize me for having done nothing. At this moment, decisions are being made, not only regarding the destiny of Kosovo and Metohija, but concerning the whole of Serbia and Yugoslavia. I do not want to comment about a tepid �resolution� which was practically gives up the sovereignty of Serbia and Yugoslavia over Kosovo and Metohija (Metohija was not even mentioned!). I only want to draw your attention to the mdemeanor of Your President of the Parliament which is not only non-democratic, but also absolutistic and magisterial. It seems as if he is afraid of every different opinion. He is forbidding deputies to speak, switching off microphone, while government-controlled TV network direct telecast fills in the blanks with musical spots. Yet those (sitting in the Parliament) are our deputies, for whom we voted at the last elections. They are the people who think and want only the good for this country. So nobody has the right to interrupt them, with an explanation that they talking about the "wrong topics" (in the opinion of the Parliament�s President!). Is that the democracy you promised us before elections? Is that the free media you talked about? Or did you get your education from Hitler and Goebels? Even if it is (coming to us) from DOS - it is still too much! For whom are you really acting? Dr. Djordje Blagojevic, Professor of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University in Belgrade TiM Ed.: Since this is Prof. Blagojevic�s first contribution to TiM, here� s his short bio� He was born in Belgrade in 1950.
