Belgrade,
19 September 2009
The Serbian government today stated that despite high security risks, it had approved the Pride Parade but suggested that the event be organised on the large open space in front of the Government Palace.

The government will do all it can to secure public peace and order, protect citizens and their property and guarantee the freedoms envisaged by the Constitution.
The government commended the Interior Ministry’s activities, particularly regarding the arrest of ten people responsible for the recent attack on French citizens.
The government demanded that all violent persons be brought to justice, adding that it will continue its dialogue with citizens who believe that their rights have been jeopardized, concludes the statement.
