Aleksandra's Note: This letter to the New York Times was published on March 3, 1990, over a year before the break-up of Yugoslavia began, spawning the wars of the 1990s. Elizabeth, H.R.H. Princess of Yugoslavia, is the daughter of Prince Paul Karageorgevich, who was removed from power in the March 27, 1941 Yugoslav coup d'etat that changed the Balkans forever. Her passionate letter provides a strong perspective regarding the consequences of the much heralded events of March 27, especially considering everything that came afterwards.
Sincerely,
Aleksandra Rebic
