“No to Cyrillic” is a hate speech

Platform 112 condemns discriminatory messages that were send at a protest rally against the Cyrillic alphabet, which was held on 7th April 2013 in Zagreb and invites the government to take more decisive steps to protect human and minority rights in Croatia.

Platform 112 is an informal coalition that brings together sixty-nine civil society organizations that are many years engaged in the protection of human rights, democratization, peace-building, combating corruption and the protection of public resources, particularly the environment.
