Declaration of this Convention of Support to Serbian People in Kosovo and Metohija condemns in strongest terms the armed attack of NATO/KFOR troops against the Serbian civilians in Jarinje, who were at the time engaged in a peaceful protest against the blockade of alternative road communication and forcible installation of Albanian Police and Customs at the administrative line checkpoints.

We further demand an investigation to be conducted under the auspices of the United Nations, and call for the action of the International Red Cross and other independent humanitarian organizations; this is necessary in order to establish the circumstances that had led to wounding a significant number of Serbian civilians and ill treatment of detained Serbs who were subsequently arrested in the aftermath of that event in joint actions of KFOR, UNMIK and the Albanian Police.

This Convention of Support brought together some thousand people from Serbia, as well as guests from the Republic of Srpska and Montenegro, and representatives from the Serbian Diaspora. The Convention expressed gratefulness to the governments of friendly countries who keep supporting the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Serbia. Further, the Convention condemned the policy of the power centers who keep blackmailing Serbia using as a tool her EU candidacy and by using other means, too, to make Serbia eventually, and step by step, concede to forced seizure of Kosovo and Metohija.

This Convention was organized by independent and non-partisan citizen associations: Association of Serbian Hosts, Belgrade Forum for a World of Equals, Club of Serbian Generals and Admirals, Movement for Kosovo and Metohija, Association Cyrillic, Association of Women from Kosovo and Metohija, Association of Families of Abducted and Missing Persons, and some other associations.

Swiss Member of Parliament Mr. Dick Marty, Head of Parliamentary Group in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, tasked with identifying the truth about trafficking in human organs of the abducted and murdered Serbs, sent his personal message to participants of our Convention with greeting and wished for successful action and the results. The Convention acknowledged the efforts of Mr. Marty, and expressed its appreciation for his contribution to finding out the truth, in the belief that continues investigation concerning the crime of trafficking in human organs can only be successful if conducted under the United Nations Security Council mandate.
