Seselj's Radicals rally in Belgrade
Vojislav Seselj spoke at the rally to say that citizens must state in the April 24 election whether they are for the European Union, where "traditional enemies" of Serbia are members - or for Russia.He stated that Serbian authorities must ask for the abolition of the Hague Tribunal and request that all Serbs accused by the tribunal can return to Serbia.
Seselj also said that Karadzic was innocent, and found guilty "just because he is a Serb."
The SRS leader also stressed the necessity for Serbia to distance itself from NATO, which he called "a criminal alliance."
Seselj said that Serbia had a chance to see "what DOS and SNS rule looks like," saying the latter "indebted the country even more and led it into a deeper economic crisis." Now is the time to see what Radicals in power are like, he added.
Seselj, who is himself accused before the Hague Tribunal, said he would not allow the extradition of three of his associates and fellow party members who are wanted on contempt of court charges. "The Radicals will defend them with their bodies," he said.
Several flares were also lit before the start of the protests.
Among the slogans were, "NATO dropped more bombs on Serbia than all the terrorists in the world."
The first SRS campaign rally in Belgrade was completed with a walk in the central parts of the town. Several thousand people took part, lighting more flares and firecrackers.
Traffic was suspended during the walk, while police were present in force in front of the Presidency building.
