Foreign journalists protest because of bombing of RTS April 23, 1999
A meeting of foreign correspondents at Hotel "Hyatt Regency" in Belgrade was initiated by journalists of German Television Klaus Belov and Marko Joschilo who invited their colleagues to pay respect to the victims of that barbarian act by the minute of silence. I have met many of you during the last ten years on different world battle fields, and I can tell you that as of today our correspondent life is dramatically changed, said Belov in his speech to the journalists and added: "Yesterday, one of the cameramen of RTS asked me if he was safe in the building which was marked as a target by NATO. I answered him that he was, because I couldn't believe that something of a kind would happen." Belov underlined that the conviction of bombing is his personal attitude, and attitude of his company, after which he called the journalists to put their signatures under the text of condolences sent to the colleagues from RTS and to the families of the victims. It is said in the text: We, German journalists take this opportunity to express our deepest sorrow for all the victims of the last night bombing. We express our condolences and send it to the families and colleagues from RTS. Inviting all journalists to go to the damaged building of RTS, Joschilo told that this act shows that journalists are not only hunters for sensations, but also people with heart. The idea of protest walk came spontaneously from correspondent of Yugoslav - Arab Press, Mr. Amgad Migati who said in his statement to Tanjug: "An ordinary man could never imagine it, because the act of a kind is out of range of humanness - an animal wouldn't dare to do such a brutality." Migati added that so called democrats shown their tyranny by bombing the building of RTS.
They are not honorable people. What else can you expect from those who invented the tactic of "burnt land", killing not only people but all living beings in Vietnam, concluded Migati.
