"Mr President, in the province of Vojvodina, harassment and physical aggression against non-Serbs, including children, are once again the order of the day. Members of the Hungarian minority are pestered on a daily basis, tombstones are damaged and violated, vandalism and anti-Semitic propaganda have become everyday fare. Everything seems to suggest that within this province with its different minorities, the Serbs are once again turning more insolent and more radical. Since the autumn of last year, we have been inundated with alarming reports about ever worsening violent incidents. A recent report by the Hungarian Human Rights Foundation gives a 19-page long, humiliating chronology of the ethnic violence in the province of Vojvodina. With this renewed violence, everything seems to suggest that the Serbs want to displace the frustrations that the loss of the province of Kosovo has caused them. Fellow Members, I do not only want to point the finger at the Serbs here. The sad experiences from the recent past should have taught us that conflicts in so-called multi-cultural or multi-ethnic societies are rooted in recent history, and that we should therefore look for a balanced political solution, whereby consideration is given to the complaints of all those involved, as well as to the conflict’s historical background. We should therefore firmly condemn all violence, but we should be careful not to lay the blame on one party alone."@en1
