Bambino della popolazione Khanty in Siberia
08/28/2006 Secondo un articolo apparso mercoledì scorso sul quotidiano "The Moscow Times", la Russia intende concedere in affitto un milione di ettari di foresta nelle regioni di Tjumen e Sverdlovsk nella Siberia occidentale. Affittuari sarebbero per i prossimi 49 anni diverse imprese statali cinesi del legname. L'Associazione per i Popoli Minacciati (APM) è particolarmente preoccupata per la sorte dei popoli indigeni della zona. "Per i popoli dei Chanti, Mansi, Selcupi ed Evenchi ciò significherebbe la distruzione della loro base vitale e della loro economia tradizionale basata sull'allevamento delle renne che pascolano nelle foreste siberiane, nonché la distruzione del loro habitat culturale e spirituale" - riporta l'associazione bolzanina. Intanto un centinaio di appartenenti a tre popoli indigeni della Siberia, hanno occupato per tre giorni le strade con le loro renne per protestare contro il progetto di costruzione di un oleodotto e di un gasdotto giganteschi nei loro territori.

Atif Dudakovic - da OsB
08/19/2006 Nell’anniversario di Oluja, sono stati scoperti tre video amatoriali che denunciano le violenze commesse dalle forze croate e bosniache nei confronti dei serbi. Mostrano rifugiati e sfollati serbi maltrattati e l’uccisione di un prigioniero. Ma il video che ha destato più scalpore è quello che ritrae Atif Dudakovic, generale di Bihac, comandante del V corpo dell’Armija della Repubblica di Bosnia ed Erzegovina, che dà l’ordine di incendiare i villaggi serbi della Krajna occidentale, nelle zone di Sanski Most, Petrovac, Kljuc.
