Violence
in political speech, threat of its use, even the reference to its possibility is
as unacceptable as in any other area.
Violence
or threats of violence are unacceptable, regardless of when and who is making
them or who is subjected to it.
They
threaten human rights system in the country and undermine solidarity in
society.
Nonetheless,
insult and hate speech has reached concerning levels.
We all
have to help promote solidarity by our own example. Public, including political
figures should refrain from any statements that could be perceived as violent,
as threat of violence or cause tension.
