Slovenia, Roma, and the Police

Published by:

An attack by the “citizens of Kočevje on the police” made the news in Slovenia. When pursuing the underage drivers who did not want to surrender, they encountered a “group of people” who then tried to prevent the arrest by hitting, pushing and threatening the police.

Robert Tomazin, a “real” citizen of Kočevje, warned that this is grossly distorted reporting that does not say anything about the real attackers. He wrote on his Facebook profile that it is a distorted report that casts a bad light on the other citizens of Kočevje, while the real perpetrators were members of the Roma community.

Bad in every sense.

An exhibition follows the path taken by Kyiv Jews on their last journey on September 29, 1941. At every step, you can look into numerous mirrors. They reflect the fates of victims of the Holodomor and Mariupol, deported Crimean Tatars and executed Roma, prisoners of the GULAG, Syrts and Yagidny, prisoners of war killed in Katyn, Darnytsia and Olenivka.
