A similar case with the murder of George Floyd happened with Romani man from the Czech Republic in 2016

In the context of the George Floyd case, the NGO ROMEA has recalled the similar circumstances of the death of the Romani man Miroslav Demeter in Žatec, Czech Republic four years ago. The 27-year-old died on 18 October 2016 in the Panamera Pizzeria after a conflict with customers led to an intervention by local police officers.

 

Just as in the case of Floyd, there is a video recording of several people, including a local patrol officer, kneeling on Demeter. One of the customers punches Demeter as he lies on the floor immobilized.

 

In that footage, the young Romani man first cries out and then is silent and stops moving. EMTs called to the scene did not manage to resuscitate him.

 

In February 2017, police closed their investigation of the case with the assertion that drug use was the cause of Demeter's death, not the actions of anybody else. The District Prosecutor in Louny gave its blessings to the police approach to the case.

 

The family of the young Romani man did not accept the police conclusion, based on their own examination of the video footage and the testimonies of eyewitnesses, and filed a complaint with the Regional Prosecutor.

 

However, that body agreed with the conclusion of the supervising prosecutor and the approach of the police, which means nobody has ever been punished for the death of this Romani man in police custody.

The European Commission is proposing 750 billion euros for recovery from the pandemic

The big sub-package will cost 500 billion euros in grants and 250 billion in loans, according to sources familiar with the plans.

 

Commission chairwoman Ursula von der Leyen made the announcement in recent days. That paves the way for, as it is believed, difficult negotiations between the 27 EU member states that disagree on how best to finance the economic recovery of the bloc.

 

The Commission's proposal is expected to include those who raise funds from the capital market, with a guarantee from EU member states and joint payments over the next few decades, which is a controversial move that requires unanimous approval.

By the end of the year, poverty will increase in Macedonia, and the middle class will decrease!

The World Bank's simulations predict that the poverty rate will rise from about 17 percent in 2019 to about 20-23 percent in 2020 and from 55,000 to over 130,000 Macedonian citizens (depending on whether the crisis lasts one or two quarters) would fall. in poverty.

 

But now they say the fight against poverty may be more difficult than in previous years when the poverty rate, although minimal, was declining year by year in Macedonia.

 

In addition to our country, results are given by countries for Albania, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo. The simulations show that in addition to health effects, poverty could be significantly increased and the middle class in all countries could be reduced.

 

Nearly 1.5 billion people worldwide currently live in poverty. Worrying is the fact that half of them are under the age of 18.

 

Only one of the UN reports that there are 820 million people in the world fighting hunger every day, which would be an average of one in nine people worldwide.

Hungary: Far-right activists march in anti-Roma demo in Budapest

Crowds, including far-right activists, gathered at a demonstration in Budapest on Thursday to commemorate the victims of a stabbing that happened last week in the Hungarian capital.

 

Far-right party Mi Hazank, whose leaders could be seen addressing the crowd, blamed the Hungarian Roma minority for the crime.

 

A 16-year-old and a 21-year-old were stabbed to death by another teenager in a fight between two groups that broke out in downtown Budapest on May 22.

 

The march on Thursday, not authorised by the police, went from the headquarters of the National Roma Self-Government to Deak square, where a makeshift memorial for the two victims of the stabbing was built.
