In the book "Vixera", Srđan Cvijić documents in detail the murders carried out by the Yugoslav service in emigration. In the new issue, "Vreme" talks to Cvijić
How is it UDBA killed in emigration? We know about it from the anecdotes of the old Udbas. But now political scientist Srđan Cvijić dug through the archives.
The result is book "Vixere" - documented in detail - and the story is tense and colorful, so it reads like a documentary thriller.
"It can be suspected that those liquidations were also used to flatter Tito and the state leadership," says Cvijić in an interview for the new issue of "Vremena", which is on newsstands from Thursday (September 11).
"Much has been written on this subject without access to documentation, based solely on gossip from the diaspora of ex-Udbas. What I could not prove, I did not write. Everything that seemed likely to me, but I could not prove, I left to the readers to draw their own conclusions," he says.
Criminal scouting
The book describes in detail the murders committed by "lone wolves" as well as "packs". And how the service started using ordinary criminals, like Željko Ražnatović Arkan.
"The federal service was in contact with the Belgrade SUP and the department for juvenile delinquency. It functioned like NBA scouting through the policemen who keep them in touch and hire them as needed."
He describes the actions as "state terrorism", and the victims as follows: "These were lost and defeated people, completely politically irrelevant and did not represent any threat except perhaps Bora Blagojević."
