Without the Yugoslav athletes the basketball would be meaningless in Europe and the world would be faced with irretrievable loss basketball would not be the same without the Yugoslav athletes. I appeal to all athletes of Europe and world to understand the situation of this country. My appeal is particularly made to European basketball players and officials who must realize that this sovereign country is being attacked although it has not deserved it. Everyone should know that Kosovo is the soul and heart of Serbia. We, the athletes, are on our country s side and wish to make a fun contribution to our country and reveal the absolute truth.
Basketball players are the best ambassadors of their countries.
Dear athletic friends, please help us in our efforts to reveal the truth. Our efforts are aimed at only this direction. Please tell everyone that the Serbs are hospitable people who welcome anyone at any time, but only those with good intentions. Above all, Serbs are courageous and NATO bombs would never make us hesitate to keep our Kosovo. Kosovo is the soul and heart of Serbia.
