ZAGREB, Feb 25 (Hina) - United Europe is founded on universal
values, primarily tolerance, it was stated at a presentation of the
Croatian translation of the brochure "What? I? Racist?" at the
European House in Zagreb on Tuesday. #L#
The brochure, written in the form of a comic book, was published
jointly by the European House Zagreb and the European Commission
Delegation in Croatia. It was translated by the students of a Zagreb
secondary school, with the help of their teachers.
United Europe is based on universal values, primarily tolerance,
and by joining the EU, Croatia, which several days ago applied for
membership, will have to adopt European values as its own, EC
Delegation head Jacques Wunenburger said, stressing the importance
of the project being carried out by young people.
Wunenburger said the brochure would help schools promote
tolerance.
"This edition deals with one of the gravest problems among peoples
and individuals - intolerance towards others just because they
belong to a minority group," European Integration Minister Neven
Mimica said.
"The culture of tolerance is part of the system of values of united
Europe, which Croatia aspires to as well," Mimica said.
