And this does not amount to any kind of capitulation before some who think they can use their paramilitary or any other threats to endanger the holding of public gatherings." I'm so glad he clarified that he had not capitulated, because I was totally deluded into thinking he did exactly that, based on his actions. “It is very important for the credibility of Serbia to show the strength of the state.

I think the language is more likely to be Serbian than Croatian, but in either case Google Chrome does a decent job with the translation into English (it's very simple text so even I can understand it in the original - I guess any Slav could). http://www.mondo.rs/tg6731/Foto/Gej_izlozba_pod_opsadom.html I've seen photos of some of the other exhibits too. It must be a huge culture shock for Balkan Christians, but I believe that any possible Pride events would get banned anyway in Serbia.
