Belgrade, Oct 3, 2009 – Minister of Labour and Social Policy Rasim Ljajic said today at the commemorative ceremony in the Jajinci memorial park that the state will unable actions of neo-fascist and neo-Nazi groups.

Speaking at an event commemorating dozens of thousands brutally killed people in Jajinci in the Second World War, Ljajic said that any form of neo-Nazism, neo-fascism, hostility and hatred toward other nations and religions will not be tolerated.

Serbia is dedicated to the principles of anti-fascism and keeping a dignified memory of all victims killed in the Second World War, Ljajic said.

Some groups and individuals attempting to promote neo-Nazism, hatred, violence and intolerance, despite the enormous victims that Serbia gave in the Second World War, by doing so are desecrating the memory of hundreds of thousands innocent victims, said Ljajic.

Serbia is taking energetic measures against all propagating violence and doing the acts aimed at hatred and intolerance, he said noting that those who promote neo-Nazism in Serbia are absolute minority.

By doing so, they have inflicted a huge damage to their homeland and its image in the world, he said.

During the Second World War, German forces killed over 80,000 Serbs, Roma, Jews and anti-fascists in the Jajinci park.

The commemoration event was attended by state officials, representatives of the City of Belgrade, municipality of Vozdovac, diplomatic and military representatives from over 30 countries, war veterans, holders of medals and prisoners in concentration cams in occupied Europe during the Second World War.

Also present were descendants of the Baruh family, students of the Military Academy, primary and high school students and a large number of citizens.

After the laying of wreaths, the gathering was addressed by surviving prisoner from the Banjica camp Ljubomir Zecevic.
