Serbs on Vacation in Croatia: Tires Slashed and Nightmare Over License Plates
Imagine heading out for a relaxing weekend in Zadar, Croatia, only to wake up to a nightmare – your car tires slashed! This is exactly what happened to a group of young Serbs who traveled to Croatia for a sports tournament. Their cars, sporting Serbian license plates, were vandalized – all four tires on both vehicles were punctured!
Shock and Disbelief
They arrived around midnight and parked as they had many times before. But in the morning, they found a scene no one wants to see. Not just one, but both cars had all four tires slashed. Meanwhile, a car parked next to theirs was untouched. The only difference? Serbian license plates.
“We couldn’t believe it. We’ve been coming to Zadar for years without any problems, and now this. The costs are huge – new tires, towing service, renting a car… All because of our plates,” said one of the young women in the group.
Is Croatia Really Safe for Serbs?
The big question is – can Serbs feel safe in Croatia? While some say there’s no problem, experiences like this cast a dark shadow on those claims.
In another incident, a well-known American traveling the Balkans lost his temper in Zagreb upon seeing Belgrade plates, further confirming the tension and intolerance towards Serbs in Croatia.
Financial and Emotional Toll
This unpleasantness isn’t just about nerves. The financial burden is steep – new tires, towing, car rental. All of this can ruin even the best vacation.
What About the Police?
The police conducted an investigation, but will they find the culprits and prevent future incidents? Time will tell.
Conclusion
This isn’t just a story about slashed tires. It’s about intolerance and how a simple weekend getaway can turn into a nightmare because of license plates. Isn’t it time we take this problem seriously?
