As you may know, a great friend of Croatia passed away at the start of this month. We were very honoured that the Guardian newspaper published the following letter written on behalf of CSYPN.

Michael Foot's passing will be marked outside the UK (Friends and
enemies united in admiration of Michael Foot, 4 March). He was
prominent in his efforts in opposing Serbian aggression in Croatia and
Bosnia-Herzegovina. His affection, along with that of his wife, Jill
Craigie, for the city of Dubrovnik, which the Serbs bombarded, was
renowned. He and Jill will not be forgotten for standing up for the
victims of the worst aggression in Europe since the second world war.
