Pesna za Vlado Kambovski ! Song: NASA DOMOVINA (Our Homeland) - SLOVENIA - The small alpine but fiercly proud republic of Slovenia that refused to be bullied by the might of Serbias Slobodan Milosevic and his enabler, Vlado Kambovski. Kambovski, a jurist and law academic,who as Yugoslavias Federal Justice Minister in 1990, threatened Slovenia with violence who simply obeying the Yugoslav Federal consitution which permitted secession (breaking away) and becoming independent. Strange behaviour from a lawyer. His comments gave Milosevic the confidence to attack Slovenia. Kambovski needs to be held accountable for his words. ----------------------------------------------- 1990 Yugoslav Federal Minister for Justice Vlado Kambovski threatens Slovenia with violence if it leaves Yugoslavia despite holding a legal referendum in accordance with the Yugoslav Federal Consititution of 1974. Note: On 26 June 1991 the Yugoslav Peoples Army (JNA) attacked Slovenia sparking the war in the former Yugoslavia. The question is should Kambovski now face legal consquences in threatening war as a member of the then Yugoslav government. It has to be remembered he remained until 1992, almost a year after his home republic of Macedonia declared its independence from Yugoslavia in September 1991. Kambovski, Yugoslav Justice Minister: 16 March 1989 - 14 July 1992 Associated Press article GOVERNMENT WARNS SLOVENIA ABOUT SECESSION REFERENDUM IVAN STEFANOVIC , Associated Press Dec. 19, 1990 12:29 PM ET BELGRADE, YUGOSLAVIA BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (AP) _ The government and the army today said Slovenia will be taking a great risk if voters in Yugoslavias most prosperous republic choose this weekend to declare independence from the country. The deputy defense minister, Admiral Stene Brovet, told the federal Parliament that the army was ready to act in accordance with the Yugoslav Constitution and those in Slovenia who think differently, are wrong. The government on Tuesday rejected the Slovenian referendum and said it would take unspecified steps to preserve the countrys unity. There were fears of army intervention, but Slovenian officials said the federal government has assured them that the military would not stop the vote Sunday. The leading Slovenian daily Delo today challenged the federal authorities. Do (officials) in Belgrade think they can halt Slovenias independence, or do they simply want to accelerate our departure from Yugoslavia? it asked in a commentary. With Sundays referendum approaching, the old federation is counting its last hours, the paper said. The federation of six republics and two provinces has been in existence since 1945. Justice Minister Vlado Kambovski today told Parliament the central government was warning state organs of Slovenia about the great responsibility and the risk they are assuming if they unilaterally step out of the federation. The government will undertake energetic steps to protect reforms and objective, common interests of all peoples and nationalities in Yugoslavia, Kambovski said without elaboration. His comments were reported by the state news agency Tanjug. The Parliament ended its session with the demand that Slovenia reconsider holding the referendum because of its consequences. Prosperous Slovenia, governed by a center-right coalition since spring, wants more independence from central authorities. Slovenia is backed by Croatia, where Communists were also ousted by center-right parties in spring elections. They want Yugoslavia transformed into a loose confederation. Serbia, the largest Yugoslav republic, where Communists scored a victory in recent elections, wants Yugoslavia to remain a federation with a strong, centralized government. The differences have led to a deepening rift among the republics and strained their relations with the federation, pushing the Balkan nation to the edge of disintegration. apnewsarchive/1990/Government-Warns-Slovenia-About-Secession-Referendum/id-b997ce8344026df6eab533b4b36ca3f3 © 2014 The Associated Press.
