"While celebrating the return of so many, we should not forget that for a significant proportion of them, it was an extremely hard and courageous decision to make, in the face of a multitude of legal, economic and social difficulties," said Lubbers.
"Pozdravljamo povratak u tako velikom broju, no ne smijemo smetnuti s uma kako za značajan dio njih, uzevši u obzir brojne pravne, ekonomske i društvene probleme, ovo predstavlja vrlo tešku i odvažnu odluku", rekao je Lubbers.
