Roma were again not free to state their nationality in the 2022 census in Serbia

The Opra Roma Serbia movement expressed its dissatisfaction a week ago at the press conference "The Roma were again not free to declare their nationality in the 2022 census".

The conference is being organized on the occasion of the completion of the population census and the potential results of the census related to the Roma population.

One of the topics of the conference was the proposal of the Republic Institute of Statistics and the National Council of the Roma National Minority to hire Roma assistant enumerators, which was an inappropriate solution in the census of the Roma community, as well as untrue statements that came out to the public that the Roma have a record number of them. . On the other hand, RŽS came out with a false announcement to the public that there were no reported irregularities in the census.

They demanded that the RSO and the NSRNM urgently make a statement on the issue of Roma assistants and the possible implications of an insufficient number of them on the Roma community, as well as to take responsibility for the unrealistic results of the census.

Ricardo Quaresma: Portugal's flamboyant former star and his stand for Roma rights

During Portugal's victorious Euro 2016 campaign he was involved in every game. He scored the winner against Croatia in the last 16 and converted the decisive penalty against Poland in the quarter-finals.

At age 32, helping his country to its first major title was the high point of his career. But off the pitch he was making an even bigger impact.

That summer, for the first time ever, a player of Roma heritage had the entire country behind him. It led many to wonder whether a turning point had been reached.

"Can a football hero put an end to 500 years of racism?" asked Renascenca, one of Portugal's major radio stations.

Such was the way Quaresma and his roots were embraced by fans that, before the final against France, national newspaper Diario de Noticias came up with an article stating that "our gypsy is better than theirs". It was a reference to rival striker Andre-Pierre Gignac, another footballer of Roma origin.

After the tournament however, the mood changed once more.

"It obviously made us proud to have a member of our community excelling at the highest level, but at the same time it was a bit of a mix of emotions for us that is not easy to explain," says Vitor Marques, founder and current vice-president of the Portuguese Roma Union.

In the Macedonian Assembly, a meeting of the Inter-Party Parliamentary Group on the topic: "Challenges faced by Roma women in the RNM".

Yesterday, in the Assembly of the Council of Ministers, we held a working meeting with the Inter-Party Parliamentary Group for supporting the rights of the Roma, their inclusion and integration and the Committee for Relations between Communities, on the topic,

"Challenges faced by Roma women in RNM"

Through the discussion of the participants of the meeting, we concluded that Roma women have many challenges, especially in the area of ​​homelessness, lack of personal documentation, health, employment. The fact of double discrimination, which Roma women constantly face, on the basis of ethnicity and on the basis of gender, is also worrying.

In the following period, we will launch a series of activities, which will contribute to the improvement of the situation in which Roma women find themselves, according to the information published on FB by MP Ljatifa Šikovska

Convicted German pensioner who kept a tank in the basement!

Do you remember that story from a one year ago about the German pensioner where the German authorities found a tank in the basement? Now the story has a (judicial) epilogue... A German court convicted an 84-year-old pensioner... for illegal possession of a weapon, since in his a real arsenal was found in the basement, including a Nazi "Panther" tank and an anti-aircraft gun.

 The court in Kiel decided to punish the former German with a suspended sentence of 14 months in prison and he was ordered to pay a fine of 250,000 euros, DPA reported.

In addition, he was ordered to sell or donate the 40-ton tank and anti-aircraft gun to a museum or collector within the next two years.

The convicted German claimed in court that he bought the "Panther" in England, insisting that it was a non-functioning tank, but according to German law it is illegal to possess tanks, weapons and ammunition that could be considered war tools without special permits.

Local authorities in the northern German city of Heikendorf discovered the illegal arsenal during a search of the basement of the 84-year-old pensioner's home in 2015.

The search was carried out as part of a wider investigation into the trade in Nazi-era art, and in a separate raid, two bronze horse statues were discovered that stood outside Adolf Hitler's office.
