- Before the elections in 1990, Vreme interviewed a couple of persons
- about would await the winner of those elections. In their recent
- issue of December 20, they have interviewed the same persons again
- about the recently held elections. I find the following comments
- very refreshing to read. There is still some sanity left in Belgrade.
-
- One of those who foresaw with most accuracy what awaited the winner was
- Vuk Stambolovic, professor of social medicine at the Medical faculty in
- Belgrade.
- ....
- "No matter who comes to power, he will be under the pressure of
- the nationalist project and the war. Let us remember that the idea of
- Greater Serbia is still in force. No one has dared say that the borders
- are inviolable. No one dares say that we bear a part of the
- responsibility for the sanctions, that there are war criminals among us,
- that the Albanians are a nation just like the Serbs. Any politician who
- would say that would lose a large number of votes. For this reason
- everyone is cautious. But until we do this, there will be no significant
- changes", said Stambolic.
