Open Letter on the Position and Status of Serbs in Croatia
The Open Letter on the Position and Status of Serbs in Croatia was sent to the addresses of prominent Croatians and Serbians in September 2008. The letter spoke about the adverse social and economic circumstances in which Croatian Serbs have lived.
==Content of the letter==
The letter was a result of extensive studies about respect for minority rights in Croatia, which were initiated by the Serb Democratic Forum and other partner NGOs of the Forum, like UNHCR, University of Zagreb and other Serbian NGOs. The study drew attention to problems such as long-term trials, verbal insults, physical attacks, and the devastation of buildings and religious objects belonging to the Serbian minority.〔 Some media, such as Jutarnji list, have even published criticisms of the implementation of the Erdut Agreement.〔 The study also stated that Nova TV (Croatia) and Večernji list are at the forefront of hate speech in the media, and it addressed the phenomenon of popular nationalist singer Marko Perković Thompson.〔 According to the study, Serbs in Croatia are marginalized, their ethnic identity is stigmatized, and all of the blame is placed on them for the Croatian War of Independence.〔 It also highlighted that the regions where Serbs have lived for centuries have been devastated and economically neglected.〔
The letter said that there have been some developments in human and minority rights, but it warned of a lack of implementation of good legislation.〔 The letter noted that Serbs in Croatia still do not have equal opportunities for socialization or the same level of human rights, ethnic or professional recognition, particularly in areas where they have returned to live recently.〔 The letter stated that for positive change to occur it would be necessary for the majority population to perceive the minority population as having a richness of living environment and not as presenting a threat to society.〔
