PRESTOLONASLEDNIK FROM LONDON.
PRESTOLONASLEDNIK FROM LONDON.
Free Serbia can become constitutional monarchy.
One of these days from London to Belgrad by the private plane has arrived
Hope. It has appeared in the form of the 55-year-old growing grey mister
Rather pleasant exterior. And with the manners testifying,
That this mister knows to itself the price.
To Serbia crown prince Alexander has appeared suddenly...
Short historical educational program. When in the beginning of the Second world in
Yugoslavia nazis, to then king Petaru to the Second have come
Karadzhordzhevichu it was necessary to run where far away. The person it was
Then young - hardly 18 has knocked, therefore it was run quickly and
Entertaining route. For short term the king has given a circle through
Greece, Jerusalem also has stuck on a constant residence to the British
To coast.
In London then the European were rescued from Hitler many
Monarchs.
Petar the Second has lodged in the well-known London hotel
"Klaridzhis". There in 1945 his son - present also was born
Crown prince Alexander. In such pleasant case this
Hotel room declared sovereign territory of Yugoslavia.
Certainly, temporarily. Yet did not cut an umbilical cord.
As dynasty Karadzhordzhevichej - relatives through English
The queen Victoria with present queen Elizabeth of the Second, and through
The Greek monarchs - with her husband prince Phillip, thoroughbred,
By the way, the Greek, that, naturally, the British monarchy took
The Yugoslavian little boy under the wing.
It have given to nice English military academy Sendherst.
Our way speaking, in suvorovtsy. Having learnt there on the officer,
Alexander even served in the English armies billeted in
Germany. As though reminded the presence to Germans: in vain you
Then have banished from Belgrad the daddy!.
Then, the truth, has combined epaulets in a locker and was engaged in business more
Profitable - international bank brokerstvom.
But the voice of blue blood whispered all time to the prince: "You
prestolonaslednik! You the first candidate on the Yugoslavian crown! "
Really, legally speaking, anybody from Karadzhordzhevichej,
Switching on Petara the Second, from a throne did not renounce. A monarchy
vykorchevali in 1945 Yugoslavian communists. Act it was, as
Alexander, deeply illegal considers.
More shortly, the prince has stopped to play a stock exchange and has hit in a policy.
Knocked together round itself opposition to Slobadan Milosevic,
Participated in different emigrant conferences...
- I tried to unite these forces, to recover them, - recollects
Alexander.
Whether it has recovered them actually or they have quickened, historians
To us then will explain. That fact that has come true!
- Voislav Koshtunitsa has my complete support, - here
The crown prince, as soon as has declared from London for the whole world
Has caught about revolution which dared Milosevic.
Alexander's triumph easily explainably. After all Koshtunitsa, if who
Does not know, began as the politician in the promonarchic oppositional
Coalitions of big royalist Vuka Drashkovich.
Becoming now the president, Koshtunitsa, similar, has not lost
Respect for kings. The first, that it has made, is has decided to return
To family Karadzhordzhevichej the Belgrad White palace, their native
Penates.
There last years Slobadan Milosevic with relatives lived. So
It have politely told: "Be put out!" The new president of Yugoslavia has given
Also to understand, that will soon hold a referendum about returning
The royal house, correcting Yugoslavia with 1918 for 1945.
It is not known, however, than this referendum will come to an end. Even Dragon
Achovich, the Belgrad press-secretary of prince Alexander, and that
Considers, that rasklad forces while in the country such: third of Serbian
The population - for monarchy restoration, third - against, and the third
Thirds to spit.
All the same since times of last king of 60 years has passed.
The generation of citizens has died out. And who has not died out, those tell
About Petara the Second not so flatter legends. So, one old resident
The Serbian emigrant community in London has told me history, as
The daddy of prince Alexander remained is dissatisfied with one Yugoslavian
Bank. Something this bank has not complied him. So Petar the Second all
Bank money has appropriated. In other words, the Yugoslavian monarchy densely
Has covered itself with corruption as those Serbs to whom it was possible remember
To take royal favour.
It does not prevent to stay now to prince Alexander in Belgrad,
To meet there with Voislavom Koshtunitsej and even to receive
Blessing from orthodox Serbian patriarch Paul.
Not absolutely clearly, the truth, in what language prestolonaslednik
Communicates with the new authorities. On Serbian prince Alexander speaks
Through a stub-pack: all the same dews from a cradle on British
Islands. But philological experience at it rich. The first wife was
From Brazil, second, present princess Katerina, - the Greek woman. So
That common language will be.
Most likely it will be language of an essential policy. To the president
Koshtunitse a certain tool for association under the is urgently necessary
Flag of variegated oppositional forces. Otherwise it will be difficult
To resist Milosevic's to still numerous supporters. And
Why such hoop which is pulling together Yugoslavian flank together,
Not to become a monarchy?.
Crown prince Alexander expresses in this respect
Extremely cautiously. In general he would wish to return to Yugoslavia, but
Only, as it is expressed, "properly".
- It is necessary to arrive so that it has not put a damage to the people, and
Would become it in the blessing, - the prince speaks. - a food and medicines -
It now where is more important for the people, than a throne.
