In Bijeljina, part of the project to combat discrimination against Roma

Bjelina was the host of the implementation of the program of the European Union and the Council of Europe "Horizontal facility for the Western Balkans and Turkey 2019-2022" dedicated to the promotion of human rights in accordance with European standards.

The essence of the project is to inform the public about the harmfulness of hate speech in public space, the organizers said. That is why it is very important, as was heard, to take concrete steps that can be taken when it comes to the prevention of hate speech.

- In this context, we developed a document that in some way mapped the problems and institutions concerned with the problems of hate speech, with the intention of creating a joint plan in the coming period, i.e., a document or guidelines, based on which all competent institutions would commit themselves, especially those who operate in the sphere of regulation of the public media space, that is, informing citizens, in order to prevent and punish any such phenomenon that causes long-term damage - said Saliha Đuderija, Assistant Minister for Human Rights and Refugees of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Preliminary census in Serbia: Roma, Ashkali and Egyptians number 160,000 in Serbia

The population and household census was held in Serbia this year from October 1 to October 31.

The preliminary results of the census in Serbia show that there are 6,320,000 in Serbia, including those abroad. The number of Hungarians in Serbia has decreased by over 30,000 and is now around 220,000.

The number of Roma, Ashkali and Egyptians is 160,000 and they are the third largest.

Bosniaks are the fourth nation, and Croats are in fifth place with about 49,000 inhabitants.

According to the 2011 census, when the Albanians boycotted the census, there were less than 6,000 in Serbia without Kosovo, now there are more than 100,000 without Kosovo, making them the largest national minority after the Hungarian Roma and Bosniaks without Kosovo, i.e. 4 in a row. Together with the citizens of Kosovo, of which according to the census, Serbia currently has about 8,340,000 inhabitants with the participation of Albanians over 22%, which according to the Constitution gives the right to the Albanian language to be in official use throughout the territory of Serbia, because according to the law he is 15%. .

The third largest nation are the Hungarians, who numbered around 253,899, but their number is now smaller by almost 30,000 people, followed by the Roma, according to census data, with over 160,000 without Kosovo and over 230,000 with Kosovo. In this regard, the Roma are the third largest nation in Serbia because they crossed the Majdar, followed by Bosniaks and Croats with less than 50,000 inhabitants.

Germany will soon allow dual citizenship?

Millions of people in Germany, among them many emigrants from the Balkans, have to choose – either to keep the citizenship they already have or to take German citizenship.

The German Ministry of the Interior confirmed to the portal The Local Germany that parliamentarians will soon discuss the bill to allow dual citizenship, reports Fenix ​​Magazine.

People in Germany who want to naturalize as Germans and keep their first citizenship now have a date before Christmas for the Bundestag to consider their situation.

This news marks the end of a long wait for many German residents, who have been delaying obtaining German citizenship due to the general requirement to renounce their previous citizenship.

The only exceptions were those whose second citizenship was from the European Union, those from countries that do not allow renunciation and those who applied for special permission to retain their original citizenship due to difficulties – often a long and bureaucratic process.

If, as predicted, the new law is passed in the summer of 2023, the old rules may continue to apply for a short time, to ensure that civil servants are ready for the new rules. The exact waiting period will likely become clearer when the Bundestag begins debating the bill.

Czech Health Ministry scandalously rejects compensation to woman whose Romani origin is listed as the reason for her sterilization

The Czech Health Ministry has rejected a request for compensation in a case of sterilization where the Romani origin of the woman was listed as the reason for the operation. The Human Rights League (Liga lidských práv) organization announced the news today in a press release.

As of 1 January, a law to provide a one-time monetary payment to persons who have been sterilized unlawfully has been in effect. From the beginning of the process, however, those applying for compensation have run into problems.

In August, nonprofit organizations warned about some of those problems through an open letter addressed to the Czech Prime Minister and Health Minister. “None of those problems has been resolved yet. The Health Ministry, despite the two-month deadline, still has several unresolved applications dating as far back as January, and evidence other than medical records is not being recognized,” the Human Rights League says in a press release.
