Da li bi komunizam preporodio Srbiju?

Ivan Dimkovic: mozda se Titu posrecilo da bude brzi

Titu se "posrećile" okolnosti, Čerčilov sin, komiterna, bla, bla...

The Yugoslav press did not discuss the question of transport “until the last
moment,” i.e., even after the news of Tito’s departure had been released the
means of transport had not been mentioned. It only received mention the
day after Tito left for Britain. Official arrangements remained secret until
mid-February when, after some vague indications made by the Yugoslav
representatives, the British received information that Tito would travel
aboard the training ship Galeb to Malta from where a British naval escort
would be requested.

An offer that a Royal Air Force plane come to Yugoslavia for Tito had been
rejected for “security reasons.” While discussing the details with Yugoslav
representatives, British authorities exchanged correspondence with authorities
in Malta and Gibraltar and monitored reports from diplomats in Madrid.
Spanish authorities rejected the possibility of Tito taking a plane from Gibraltar
because it involved a military and not a civilian plane and because they had
objections to some of the passengers. The Maltese Governor would not allow
Galeb to dock in Malta’s port, perhaps as a result of possible local Catholic protests.

On 2 March, the Command in the Mediterranean received final word from the Admiralty
that Tito would travel the entire route aboard the Galeb without stops. Similar
issues related to docking in Gibraltar occurred on the return journey

The Date and Programme of the Visit

At first, the visit had been scheduled to start on 21 March, but in early
February the Yugoslav side suggested that it should take place a week or two earlier,
that is 16-21 March.

The British side accepted this change without objection.

According to the Yugoslav press (quoting “unofficial sources”), the reason for the
change had been caused by the busy schedule of the British Foreign Minister.

LONDON, March 29 (AAP)

—President Tito of Yugoslavia, who is returning on
the Yugoslav ship Galeb from a visit to Britain, entertained the Mediterranean forces commander
(Admiral Earl Mountbatten) at lunch off Malta yesterday, according to Radio Belgrade.

Turmen: Od čega ćemo vraćati Šizojeve dugove nemam pojma.

BuzzLightyear: Dugovi će biti otpisani. Ako se nešto bitno ne promeni Srbija neće postojati za nekih 50ak godina, a možda i ranije. Planirani životni vek novih rudnika je otprilike toliko.

Turmen: ja stvarno ne znam šta bi preporodilo Srbiju. Osim možda da objavimo rat Norveškoj i predamo se.

Nisam ljubitelj nikakvih teorija zavera, ali mi se cini da je izmedju Tita i Cercila postojao malo veci biznis. Toliko veliki da su sa zapada i dalje nalazili za shodno da mu odaju postovanje i kad je umro - sto je nesto sto se ne dobija na lepe oci, vec je moralo biti zaradjeno necim, i to necim prilicno velikim.

Takođe, ne zaboravimo Pokret nesvrstanih, poziciju i ugled tadašnje SFRJ. I industrijsku ekspanziju zemlje u to vreme.
