FM Papandreou calls for integrated approach to Balkans 

Foreign Minister George Papandreou said on Monday the international
community should not treat the Balkans "in piecemeal fashion"
whenever there is a crisis.
Papandreou was speaking before an informal meeting of Balkan foreign
ministry officials on the crisis. Officials from Bulgaria, the Former
Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), Greece, Romania and Turkey
are attending the meeting. Other issues are the security of countries
in the region - particularly the safeguarding of territorial
integrity and respect for existing borders, democratisation -
especially from the viewpoint of human and minority rights, and the
economic development of the Balkans through infrastructure works with
the contribution of the international community.

Greece wants multi-cultural Balkans 

Greece desires the Balkans to be a multicultural peninsula with all
its peoples, regardles of religion, raising their voices in
unison for peace and security in the region, foreign minister George
Papandreou said Sunday.
Speaking at a memorial service in Athens for the six million Jews
who died in the Nazi holocaust, Papandreou said the Nazi holocaust
during World War II was timely today given the current war in the
Balkans.

Parliament vice-president Panayotis Kritikos, speaking at the same
event, warned that the "strong" of the world should remember the
holocaust as an example, particularly now that the Yugoslav drama was
ongoing, "so that these black pages in the history of humanity will
not be repeated".
