Επεισόδια μεταξύ Μακεδόνων και Ελλήνων φασιστών 31/08/2008-Incidents between Macedonians and Greek Fascist 31/08/2008

Incident took place on Sunday noon at the Macedonian village Xino Nero/Eksi Sou at the Florina prefecture between members of the radical right group "Golden Dawn" and inhabitants of the village.
The situation nearly went beyond control but spirits calmed down after mediation of more cold blooded ones. The members of the Golden Dawn arrived at the village in a convoy of cars by holding Greek flags and shouting motos and headed to the central square of the village. The tension started when member of Vinozhito who resides in the village demanded that they should leave.

Radical rights and villagers exchanged fists and swears despite the efforts of the very few police men to stop the incident. The situation nearly went beyond control when a villager took the Greek flag from the hands of a Golden Dawn member.
But due to the mediation of more moderates the flag was returned and the members of the Golden Dawn left the village. Earlier the radical rights had put the Greek flag on the municipality building and had choired the national anthem of Greece.

(The Golden Dawn members earlier were attending the annual celebrations for the victory of the monarchofasists against the communist rebels in mount Vitsi during the war of 1948.)

Despite the fact that that the members of the Golden Dawn had decided to move towards Xino Nero while they were in Vitsi for the annual celebration of radical right organizations, the police didn't take the appropriate measures.

The monument at the summit of Vitsi was honored by members of fascistic LAOS and municipality administration member representing the mayor of Thessaloniki.
