New Victims of the Communist Terror in the Republic of Moldova
The City Hall of the Municipality of Chisinau continues to investigate cases of mistreatment among those arrested following the April 7 protests. Twenty-five new cases of the use of force by the police have been documented.
Violence was also used against the political prisoner Andrei Ivantoc, who as a member of the Ilascu group was imprisoned for 15 years by the illegal regime in Tiraspol and is a citizen of honor of the Municipality of Chisinau.
To date, the City Hall of the Municipality of Chisinau has investigated the following:
3 deaths, of which one is directly linked to the use of force by the police on the night of April 7 (the case of Valeriu Boboc);
3 disappearances (Serghei Donici, 19 years old; Alexandru Galinschi, 27 years old, Tudorache Mihail, 23 years old);
41 cases of inhumane and degrading treatment and torture.
The citizens of the Republic of Moldova continue to be attacked by police right in the street. Legal procedures are not respected when detentions take place. Two cases were documented in front of the Nasterea Domnului Cathedral in Chisinau on the night before Easter.
The release of those arrested does not take place as a result of the so-called “amnesty”, but due to the expiration of the terms of detention (e.g., the case of Eugen Cebanu, freed on April 21 after the 10 days of detention to which he had previously been sentenced).
The City Hall of the Municipality of Chisinau firmly condemns the grave violations of human rights that continue in the Republic of Moldova. We continue to request the immediate involvement of the international community to ensure:
• An end to the inhumane and degrading treatment and torture in the places of detention;
• The cessation of terror, kidnapping, threats, and intimidation;
• The ensuring of access to the places of detention by lawyers, NGOs, and the press;
• The guarantee of the rights of those persons who are detained, especially the right to defense in court;
• A complete report on the detentions carried out and the charges brought;
• The punishment of those guilty of committing the abuses mentioned.
We ask that those who have suffered as a result of police abuse or who can offer information about those who have disappeared please contact the City Hall of the Municipality of Chisinau to receive medical and legal assistance, as well to aid in the investigation of the cases of mistreatment and abuse. Contact numbers: (+373 22) 20 15 16, (+373 22)20 17 07, (+373 22) 22 10 02.

Les droits de l'homme sont gravement violes dans la Republique Moldavie
Vendredi, 10 Avril, 2009
Suite a la fraude d'election de 5 Avril, 2009 dans la Republique Moldavie et les evenements qui ont suivi, un grand nombre de citoyens de la Republique Moldavie, residents en Roumanie, ont pris la decision de transmettre ce message a la communaute internationale, dans le but de tirer l'attention publique sur la situation de la Republique Moldavie au present.
Ce message est transmis au nom de nos familles, amis et collegues qui se lutte pour la defence de la democratie dans la Republique Moldavie.
On vous ecrivent dans le nom des jeunes qui ont fait partie de l'emancipation nationale de '89, les gamins qui ont suivi l'ecole pendant le regime communiste, les jeunes qui ont realise que le globe en verre dont ou ils vivent est poussiereux et plein de boue, les jeunes qui croient qu'ils peuvent changer leur future en outilisant le pouvoir du mot, nos parents, nos familles.
Tout a commence dans le jour de 7 avril, le premier jour d'impact nationale, quand 30 000 jeunes ont occupe la Place de la Grande Assemblee Nationale de Chisinau pour transformer le reve d'un futur libre en realite. Ils ont ete insultes par les dictateurs communists qui ont essaye d'abuser leurs ideals en les accusant de vandalisme et violence. Nous savons que la liberte coute cher, mais est ce qui'il faut qu'on meurent pour l'obtenir? On se demandent si les affirmations d'un seul homme qui a manipule un entier peuple sont plus fortes que les demandes de secours de la future generation? On a besoin d'attitude maintenant, pour aider les gens qui ont eu le courage de dire NON. On a besoin de soutien et du pouvoir du mot qui peux changer le destin de Moldavie, apporte par le „vent democratique”, comme tellement institutions interationales pretend d'etre.
Nos familles pensent aux soutien internationale chaque moment et leur courage et leur resistence depend de l'espoir qu'on est tous aupres d'eux.
Conformement aux donnes officiells (non officiellement la situation pourra etre beaucoup plus pire) autour de 500 jeunes (parmi d'eux ont ete aussi des mineurs) ont ete enleves en outilisant la force, en plein jour dans les rues de Chisinau. Seulement Dieu sache ce qui c'est passe avec eux. Tout ca est a cause du fait qu'ils ont eu le courage et le pouvoir de s'exprimer directement dans le nom de la justice et la liberte.
Chaque jour, le lundi, 6 Avril et mardi, 7 Avril 2099, dans la Place de la Grande Assemblee Nationale de Chisinau plus de 30.000 gens se sont ressemble. La majorite des gens sont jeunes.
Mercredi, 6 Avril 2009, leur nombre n'a pas depasse 8000 et jeudi - 1000. POURQUOI? Le „President”, Vladimir VORONIN, lance des menaces directs a l'addresse de tous ceux qui soutient et permettent d'un facon ou l'autre, la participation des citoyens de Moldavie, aux actions ou ils expriment libre leurs opinions en ce qui concerne l'election de 5 Avril 2009.
Ses actions d'intimidation depassent tous les limites democratiques. Ca ce passe chaue jour, meme a la limite de l'Union Europeene. Au meme temps, l'Union Europeene evite d'aborder une position en ce qui concerne les methodes terroristes des authorites de la Republique Moldavie, pour resoudre la situation tensionee. Le dialoque direct du „president” de notre pays et les gens qui protestent est completement inexistant.
Dans le nom des gens de la Place de la Grande Assemblee Nationale de Chisinau, qui se sont sacrifies et qui coninuent sacrifier leur liberte et leurs vies pour la liberte de tous les gens de Moldavie et pour defendre leurs droits d'hommes, il faut que nous
SOYONS AUPRES D'EUX !
On fait un appel aux droits fondamentals de l'humanite: LE DROIT DE S'EXPRIMER LIBRE! En consequence, on fait un appel a tous les representants de la presse internationale, pour:
Se sensibiliser et s'impliquer activement dans l'information de l'opinion publique concernant la situation actuelle dans la Republique Moldavie;
Reflecter sur la situation de la Republique Moldavie dans le media de leur pays, la gravite avec laquelle les droits de base de l'homme sont violes dans la Republique Moldavie par ceux qui doivent les proteger – l'administration de la Republique Moldavie;
Fournir des informations reeles aux communautes locales et des exemples concrets de violation des droits de l'homme, la violence et le terreur avec laquelle les gens de Moldavie sont traites; les gens qui font rien d'autre chose que s'exprimer d'un facon pacifique;
Traiter avec discernement les informations donne par l'administration de Moldavie; ces informations esayyent desinformer l'opinion publique;
Soutenir la liberte de la presse dans la Republique Moldavie, en temir compte du fait que la seule source d'information – la television et le radio publique de Moldavie – est asservi au pouvoir et les televisions privees sont influences par menaces et chantage par l'administration de l'etat.
On est capable de dire des mots, de parler, de crier pour ceux qui ont les liaisons avec la civilisations coupes. La censure dans le media de la Republique Moldavie a apporte une confusion majore. Les activites qu'on deroulent ici a Cluj Napoca, en Roumanie sont importantes et necessaires, on veux qu'elles seront entendu par tout le monde. On collectent des sigratures de tous ceux qui croient dans la justesse de nos actions ici et a la maison, en Moldavie. N'importe quelle nationalite, institution ou personalite tu es, autant que tu crois dans la justice!

Los derechos humanos son gravemente violados en la República de Moldavia
Viernes, 10 de abril de 2009
Tras el fraude electoral del 5 de abril de 2009 en la República de Moldovia y los acontecimientos que siguieron, muchos ciudadanos de la República de Moldavia, los residentes en Rumanía, tomaron la decisión de transmitir este mensaje a la comunidad internacional, con el fin de llamar la atención del público a la situación de la República de Moldova hasta hoy.
Este mensaje es enviado en nombre de nuestras familias, amigos y compañeros que luchan por la defensa de la democracia en la República Moldavia.
Lo que se escribe en nombre de los jóvenes que formaban parte de la emancipación nacional del '89, los niños que asisten a la escuela durante el régimen comunista, los jóvenes que se dan cuenta de que el globo de cristal en la que viven es polvoriento y lleno de barro, los jóvenes que creen que pueden cambiar su futuro utilizando el poder de la palabra, nuestros padres, nuestras familias.
Todo comienza en los días de 7 de abril, el primer día de impacto nacional, cuando 30.000 jóvenes tomaron el lugar de la Gran Asamblea Nacional de Chisinau para transformar el sueño de un futuro libre en realidad. Fueron insultados por los dictadores comunistas que tratan de abusar de sus ideales, acusándolos de actos de vandalismo y violencia. Sabemos que la libertad es cara, pero hay que morir por ella? Nos preguntamos si las declaraciones de un hombre que manipula a todo un pueblo son más fuertes que las reclamaciones realizadas para el alivio de la próxima generación? Hay una necesidad de tomar una actitud ahora para ayudar a las personas que tuvieron la valentía de decir NO. Necesitamos el apoyo y el poder de la palabra que puede cambiar el destino de Moldavia, mediante la aportación de la "democrática del viento", tay y como Instituciones Internationales pretende ser.
Pensar en nuestras familias el apoyo internacional y cada vez su valor y su resistencia depende de la esperanza de que todos estamos con ellos.
De acuerdo con los datos oficiales (la situación no oficial podría ser mucho peor), alrededor de 500 jóvenes (entre ellos también menores de edad) fueron retirados por la fuerza, a plena luz del día en las calles de Chisinau. Sólo Dios sabe lo que está sucediendo con ellos. Todo esto es debido a que tuvieron el valor y el poder de hablar directamente en nombre de la justicia y la libertad.
Cada día, de lunes, 6 de abril y el martes 7 de abril 2009, en la Plaza de la Gran Asamblea Nacional en Chisinau más de 30.000 personas estaban présentes. La mayoría son jóvenes.
Miércoles 6 de abril de 2009, su número no excedía de 8.000 y el jueves - 1000. ¿POR QUÉ? El "Presidente" Vladimir Voronin, lanzó la amenaza directa a la dirección de todos los que apoyan y permiten, de una manera u otra, la participación de los ciudadanos de Moldavia, actuar libremente, o expresar sus opiniones libremente sobre la elección de 5 de abril de 2009.
Sus acciones de intimidación exceden los límites de la democracia. Pasa todos los días, aunque con las limitaciones impuestas desde la Unión Europea. Al mismo tiempo, la Unión Europea evita tomar una postura firme en relación a los métodos para resolver tensiones utilizado por las autoridades de la República de Moldavia. El dialogo directo del "presidente" de nuestro país y de las personas que protestan est inexistente.
En nombre del pueblo, que se sacrificaron y continua sacrificar su libertad y sus vidas por la libertad de todos los pueblos de Moldavia en la plaza de la Gran Asamblea Nacional en Chisinau, y de defender sus derechos que los hombres, necesitamos que estéis con nosotros!
Se trata de un recurso ante el derecho fundamental de la humanidad: el derecho a expresarse libremente! En consecuencia, hacemos un llamamiento a todos los representantes de la prensa internacional, para:
- Para concienciar y participar activamente en informar a la opinión pública acerca de la situación actual en la República de Moldavia;
- Reflexionar sobre la situación de la República de Moldavia en los medios de comunicación de su país, la severidad con la que los derechos fundamentales del hombre son violados en la República de Moldova por parte de aquéllos que los deben proteger - la administración de la República de Moldavia;
- Proporcionar información real a las comunidades locales y ejemplos concretos de violación de los derechos humanos, la violencia y el terror con que el pueblo de Moldavia es tratado : las personas arrestradas no hacian más que expresarse libre y pacíficamente;
- Tratar con discernimiento la información dada por el gobierno de Moldavia, que debe intentando desinformar a la población;
- Apoyar la libertad de prensa en la República Moldavia. La única fuente de información oficial - la televisión y la radio pública de Moldavia - está subordinado al poder, y los canales privados de televisión se ven influidas por las amenazas y el chantaje por el administración del Estado.
Podemos ser capaces de decir palabras, hablar, llorar por los que tienen toda conexión con los medios de información. La censura en los medios de comunicación de la República de Moldova aporta una mayor confusion. Los sucesos que ocurren aquí en Cluj Napoca, Rumanía son importantes y necesarias, y queremos darlas a conocer a todo el mundo. Recogemos firmas de apoyo de todos los que creen en la rectitud de nuestras acciones aquí y en en nuestra patria, en Moldavia, cualquiera sea su nacionalidad, su pertenencia a una institución o iniciativa personal, siempre y cuando crea en la justicia!
Todos con ellos!

Menschenrechtsverletzungen in der Republik Moldawien.
heute, 10. April 2009 Cluj Napoca, Rumänien
Pressemitteilung zur sofortigen Weiterleitung
Eine große Anzahl der in Rumänien lebenden moldawischen Staatsbürger haben es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, die internationalen Medien auf die Situation in der Republik Moldawien aufmerksam zu machen, angesichts des Wahlbetruges am 5. April 2009. Diese Botschaft wird im Namen ihrer Angehörigen, ihrer Freunde und Kollegen, die zum Schutz der Demokratie in der Republik Moldawien kämpfen, übermittelt.
Sie sind die Kinder der nationalen Emanzipation von 1989, sie sind die Jugend, die unter einem kommunistischen Regime erzogen wurden, sie sind die jungen Leute, die gemerkt haben, dass die perfekte Glaskugel in der sie leben, staubig und rissig ist, sie sind die Jugend, die glaubt, den Lauf der Dinge kraft ihrer Worte und Taten ändern zu können.
Der 7. April war der erste Tag, an dem man den Einschlag spüren konnte, als 30.000 junge Menschen in Chisinau in der Piata Marii Adunari Nationale (Platz der Großen Nationalversammlung, PMAN abgekürzt) und ließen die Hoffnung einer Zukunft in Freiheit erneut aufleben. Die kommunistischen Tyrannen widersetzten sich uns und versuchten unsere Ideale zu untergraben indem sie uns des Vandalismus und der Gewalt bezichtigten. Wir wissen, dass die Freiheit teuer erkämpft werden muss, aber muss Blut der Preis sein? Wiegen die Worte einer Person, die eine gesamte Nation auf niederträchtige Weise manipuliert und in die Irre geführt hat mehr, als die Hilferufe der Generation der Zukunft? Wir müssen einen Weg finden um denjenigen zu helfen, die den Mut hatten NEIN zu sagen. Wir brauchen die Unterstützung und die Stärke internationaler Institutionen um die Demokratie schützen zu können.
Etwa 500 junge Menschen, unter denen sich noch Minderjährige befanden (die Zahlen sind die ofiziellen Statistiken. Die wahren Zahlen sind schwierig zu bestimmen) sind gewaltsam von den Straßen Chisinaus genommen worden, und Gott allein weiß was ihnen zugestoßen ist, weil sie den Mut, die Entschlossenheit und die Stärke hatten, ihre Hoffnung auf Freiheit und Gerechtigkeit offen auszudrücken. Die Leute, die den Mut hatten NEIN zu sagen, hängen jetzt von der Unterstützung der internationalen Gemeinschaft ab um ihren Mut und ihre Entschlossenheit zu unterstützen. Am Montag, den 6. April und am Dienstag, den 7. April 2009 waren in Chisinau etwa 30.000 Menschen in der Piata Marii Adunari Nationale, in großer Mehrheit jung. Am Mittwoch waren es 8.000 und am Donnerstag nur noch 1.000. WARUM?
Der Grund ist, dass Präsident Vladimir Voronin jeden moldawischen Staatsbürger, der seine offene Meinung zum Wahlbetrug am 5. April kundtut, oder eine solche Äußerung unterstützt oder erlaubt, publik macht und mit offenen Gewaltandrohungen verfolgen lässt. Dies lässt er von der eigenen Staatspolizei und den Sicherheitskräften ausführen, die eigentlich dazu da sind, die Rechte der Bürger zu wahren.
Diese Aktionen der Unterdrückung, die jeder demokratischen Ordnung spotten, sind heute die Norm und treten die Demokratie mit Füßen, direkt an der Türschwelle der Europäischen Union. Während all dies geschieht, vermeidet die Europäische Union einen klaren Standpunkt zur terroristischen Art und Weise mit der die Diktatur der Republik Moldawien versucht den Konflikt mit ihrem Volk auszublenden. Der Präsident verweigert jeglichen gehaltvollen Dialog mit dem Volk, ohne direkte Ansprachen oderirgendwelcher Kommunikation mit den Protestierenden.
Im Namen all derer in der Piata Marii Adunari Nationale, die ihre Freiheit für die Freiheit aller Moldawier geopfert haben und opfern und im Namen der Menschenrechte: LASST UNS IHNEN BEISTEHEN!
Wir nehmen ein essentielles menschliches Recht in Anspruch: DAS RECHT AUF FREIE MEINUNGSÄUßERUNG. Daher fordern wir die Mitarbeiter der internationalen Presse auf:
- das öffentliche Bewusstsein für die Situation in der Republik Moldawien zu schärfen und einen aktiven Beitrag zu leisten.
- die Situation in der Republik Moldawien in den lokalen und nationalen Zeitungen gewissenhaft, fair und in einer, der Ernsthaftigkeit der Situation angemessenen, Art und Weise zu schildern und über die flagranten Menschenrechtsverletzungen verübt von denjenigen, die mit ihrer Verteidigung anvertraut wurden zu berichten
- die örtlichen Gemeinschaften mit Information und konkreten Beispielen von Menschenrechtsverletzungen gegenüber denen, die lediglich versuchen ihre Meinung friedvoll auszudrücken zu versorgen.
- die Information, von Seiten der Staatsführung der Republik Moldawien mit kritischer Vorsicht zu behandeln, da ihre Aktionen oftmals zur Desinformation und Vertuschung gedacht sind.
- die Pressefreiheit in der Republik Moldawien zu unterstützen, angesichts der Tatsache, dass die einzigen Informationsmedien für den Normalbürger - Staatsfernsehen und Radio - ein Teil des Staatsapparates sind, während private Fernsehsender mit Drohungen und Erpressungen seitens des Staatsapparates in ihrer Arbeit behindert werden.
Wir sind in der Lage, diese Worte zu sagen, zu reden und zu rufen, für all diejenigen, die von der der demokratischen Gesellschaft abgeschnitten wurden. Die Zensur in den Massenmedien der Republik Moldawien ist die Ursache einer Massenkonfusion. Die Dinge, die wir in Cluj ausführen sind nützlich und notwendig, wir wollen, dass sie gehört werden und dafür werden wir alles in unserer Macht stehende tun. Wir sammeln unterschriften von all denjenigen, die glauben, dass unser Standpunkt gerecht ist.
Wir bitten um Aufmerksamkeit und Unterstützung.
LASST UNS IHNEN BEISTEHEN!
Romana English Francais Espagnola Deutsch MagyarAz emberi jogokat tiporják lábbal
Egy nagy létszámú moldovai állampolgárokból álló csoport, nagy részük romániai lakcimmel rendelkező, úgy döntött továbbitja önökhöz ezt a felhivást. Mert fel kell hivni a figyelmet arra a helyzetre amelyik a Moldovai Köztársaságban alakúlt ki, a 2009., április 5 – én lezajlott választásokon tapasztalt csalások nyomán.
Ezt az üzenetet azoknak a családoknak, a barátoknak és azoknak a társainknak a nevében tesszük közzé, akik a demokrácia megvedéséért küzdenek a Moldovai Köztársaságban. Ők az 1989-es nemzeti emancipáció gyermekei, azok a kölykök akik a kommunista rendszer évei alatt végeztég el az általános és középiskolás tanulmányaikat, azok a fiatalok akik rájöttek, hogy az az üveg búra ami alatt élnek poros és sárral van tele, ök azok a fiatalok akik abban hisznek, hogy a SZÓ erejével megtudnak változtatni valamit. Április 7. volt az elsö említésre méltó nap, amikor 30.000 fiatal elfoglalta a chişinău-i Nagy Nemzeti Gyűlés Terét és feltámadt a vágy és megszületett az álom egy szabad jövőről. Szembeszállt velük a kommunista hatalom, aki megpróbálta becsapni öket és megvádolta öket vandalizmussal és tetlegességel. Tudjuk, hogy a szabadságnak nagy ára van, de vajon vér kell kiontasson érte? Vajon egy ember szavai, aki megalázó módon manipulált egy egész népet, többet érnek mint egy egész leendö generáció segélykiáltása? Allást kell foglalnunk, hogy segithessünk azokon az embereken akiknek volt bátorságuk NEM –et mondani. Nekik szükségük van a támogatásra és a szó erejére ami tud változtatni valamit ha “egy demokratikus fuvallat” jön, ahogy magukat szeretik tekinteni megannyi nemzetiközi intézmények. Azok a fiatalok várják a nemzetközi közösség segitségét percröl percre és az ö bátorságuk és kitartásuk abból a reményböl táplálkozik, hogy mi melletünk állunk. Körülbelül 500 chişinău-i fiatalt, köztük kiskorúakat is (a hivatalos adatok szerint, de a valós adatokat nehéz lenne megjósolni) összeszedtek eröszakkal az utcákról és csak a jó Isten tudja, hogy mi történhetett velük. És mindez azért mert a Moldovai Köztársaságban a fiataloknak volt bátorságuk és erejük nyiltan szólni az igazság és a szabadság nevében. Hétfön, 2009, április 6. – án és kedden, 2009, április 7. – én , a chişinău-i Nagy Nemzeti Gyűlés Terén több mint 30.000 ember gyült össze, nagyrészük fiatal. Szerdán, 2009, április 8. – án, a számuk nem haladta meg a 8000-et, és csütörtökön, 2009, április 9. – én voltak 1000 (ezren). VAJON MIÉRT? Vladimir Voronin elnök nyílt fenyegetéseket intéz azokhoz akik támogatják vagy megengedik bármilyen módon, a Moldovai Köztársaság állampolgárainak azt, hogy szabadon mondják ki a véleményüket az április 5. választásokon történt csalásokról.A megfélemlítési akciók, mely bármilyen demokratikús határt túllépnek, mindennaposak és a demokrácia alapelveit teszik tönkre épp az Európai Únió kapujánál. Ugyanakkor az Európai Únió késlekedik vagy kerüli azt, hogy állást foglaljon a Moldovai Köztársaság vezetöségének terrorista módszereivel szemben (ezekkel a módszerekkel a Moldovai Köztársaság a feszült helyzettet akarja megoldani). Ugyanakkor teljesen hiányzik bármilyen párbeszéd az ország elnöke és a tiltakozók között. Azok nevében akik ott voltak a téren, azok nevében akik a szabadságukat és életüket áldozták fel, a moldovai nép szabadságáért és az emberi jogok megvédéséért. GYERTEK LEGYETEK VELÜNK Egy alap emberi jog nevében: A SZÓLÁS SZABADSÁGA nevében! Felhívjuk a nemzetiközi sajtó összes képviselöjének figyelmét: * Tudatositsák magukban a Moldovai Köztársaságban kialakúlt helyzet súlyát és vegyenek aktívan részt a közvélemény informálásában. * A saját országuk médiáiban tegyék közzé a Moldovai Köztársaságban kialakúlt helyzetet és hangsúlyozzák azt, hogy ott az emberi jogokat tiporják lábbal épp azok akik arra hivatottak, hogy megvédjék ezeket a jogokat – a Moldovai Köztársaság vezetöi * A helyi közösségeknek szolgáljanak konkrét információkkal és példákkal arról, hogyan szegik meg az emberi jogokat a Moldovai Köztársaságban, arról, hogyan viselik el a tetlegességet és a terrort azok akik tiltakoznak és így nem tesznek egyebet mint a véleményüknek adnak hangot * Nagy körültekintéssel kezeljék azokat a hivatalos közleményeket melyeket a Moldovai Köztársaság vezetöségétöl származnak, mert ezek célja a félrevezetés és az eltussolás. * Támogassák a sajtószabadságát a Moldovai Köztársaságban, számba véve azt, hogy az egyedüli információs forrás amihez az egyszerű moldovai állampolgár hozzájút – a moldovai nemzeti televizió és rádió adó – a hatalom alárendeltje, a magán televizió adókat pedig befolyásolyák az állami szervezetek külömbozö fenyegetésekkel és zsarolásokkal. Képesek vagyunk rá, hogy kimondjunk szavakat, hogy beszéljünk, hogy felemeljük szavunkat azokért akik számára megszünt a kapcsolat a civilizációval. A cenzúra a Moldovai Köztársaság sajtójában egy teljes zürzavarhoz vezetett. Azok a tevékenységek amiket mi végzünk Kolozsváron hasznosak és szükségesek. Azt akarjuk, hogy haljanak felölük és ezért meg is fogunk tenni mindent. Aláirásokat gyüjtünk azoktól akik hisznek a mi tetteink helyességében, úgy itt, mint otthon is. Nem számit milyen nemzetiségű vagy, hol dolgozol vagy milyen a személyiséged, addig amig hiszel az igazságban! GYERTEK LEGYÜNK MELLETTÜK!
