"APEL" ASKS GREEK AMBASSADOR TO HELP IN RECONSTRUCTION PROCESS

( Editorial: --> 3320 ) ZAGREB, 13 Aug (Hina) - A delegation of the centre for the protection of rights of imprisoned and missing Croatian citizens and members of their families, "Apel", on Wednesday met with the Greek Ambassador to Croatia, Stavros Vassilopoulos. The delegation presented Ambassador Vassilopoulos with a white brick, symbolising a request for the Ambassador to help gather the funds needed for the reconstruction of one house in the Danube River region. This action is aimed at including politicians in the reconstruction of houses on a voluntary basis and outside of their regular activities. "Apel" has so far presented white bricks to the Croatian Popular Party president Tomislav Mercep, US Ambassador William Montgomery and the OSCE Mission head Tim Guldimann. The delegation, headed by their president Zdenka Farkas, pointed again to the problem of the missing and imprisoned, asking the Greek Ambassador for his country to intervene with the Yugoslav authorities so that they could submit all data on the missing and killed and the sites of their burial, "Apel" said in a statement issued Wednesday.
