UN General Assembly
1952

42. We are again compelled to say that our relations with our neighbours on the frontiers have not returned to normal, in conformity with the General Assembly recommendation; instead, the pressure against Yugoslavia has been continuously maintained in the most varied forms. One form of pressure, which was particularly intensified during 1952, was the activity of spies, saboteurs and terrorists who infiltrated Yugoslavia from neighbouring countries of the Soviet, bloc. Between the sixth session of the General Assembly and the end of September 1952, the Yugoslav authorities arrested 47 terrorists who had infiltrated Yugoslavia from Bulgarian territory; 24 were Bulgarian citizens and 23 were Yugoslav deserters. During the trials of the arrested terrorists and saboteurs, however, it was discovered from their statements that, during the period in question, 233 terrorists had infiltrated Yugoslavia from neighbouring countries of the Soviet bloc and that some of them had succeeded in returning to the countries from which they came. A number of Yugoslav citizens, including Lieutenant-Colonel Pane Djukic, a deputy and hero of the people, have been murdered by the terrorists.
