Ljubljana, 21 August - THE DELO: BREAD INSTEAD OF GAMES - All these "games", as Anton Rupnik terms the developments in the Soviet Union, are played on a large scale, serious, and of vital import to all our fates. The whole world could easily slide back one and a half decades. Their outcome can also threaten us, here, in our independent Slovenia. The games played by the high political circles in the Kreml with the Soviet Empire as stake, are played on a powder keg. We are speaking of the lives of tens of millions of people, to whom Gorbachev has, admittedly given back the dignity of citizenship, but who were even more threatened by the everyday economics of living. And if the patience of these millions runs out, the whole world will be engulfed in the resulting flames, ends the commentary.
