SIMON WIESENTHAL CENTER CONDEMNS SUNDAY'S VIOLENCE IN ZAGREB

ZAGREB/JERUSALEM, May 11 (Hina) - The Simon Wiesenthal Center on Tuesday called upon the Croatian Government "to take measures against fascist demonstrators who physically attacked a peaceful demonstration held in Zagreb on Sunday by the Committee for Victims of Fascism Square and other Croatian human rights organisations," read a statement issued by the Jerusalem-based centre's director Efraim Zuroff. "No self-respecting democracy can condone violence against peaceful demonstrations expressing legitimate concerns. Given Croatia's fascist past during World War II and the identity of the perpetrators of the violence, their ideology and program, the Croatian government must take especially stringent measures to ensure that those guilty will be punished severely and that such acts of violence will not recur," the statement read.

According to it, "such outbursts are the product of the tolerance exhibited by the Croatian government toward right-wing extremists who glorify the country's Ustasha past and dream of a fascist future." The Center in the past "urged the government to take legal measures to ban the use of Ustasha symbols, songs, and salutes but such suggestions have been ignored. Sunday's violence is one of the results of this policy," the statement concluded. (hina) ms
