Photo everyone goes, he stays. Here’s how Vladimir Seks changed: ‘And you wrote that I was Mephisto’

Vladimir Seks I have been in Croatian public space for thirty years. He is closer to the top, I get closer to the bottom. Because of that distance, we never met in an interview, Seks simply never wanted to speak for a newspaper where I wanted to write. I met him a few months ago at the book promotion Dear hel. We shook ourselves.

A few days earlier, 24 -hour editorial staff sent a letter, a comment on my inscriptions about him, woven with a lot of irony.

« You write that I am a Mephisto, » he told me.

. « Well, » I said, I wrote that you were Mephisto. « AND Kayser Sozaa demonic figure of Usual Suspects. But I also wrote that you were a brilliant mind, an extremely read man. I remember how you are Zoran Milanovic, who is not a cat’s cough, in Parliament polemically overcome by quoting new Rhine newspapers Karla Marxwith a quote that is the secret spirit of bureaucracy … «

Seks was as indifferent to the compliment as criticism. He was in one of those catatonic conditions; They say no one saw him drunk or sober …

I think that aggregate state helped him survive communism and all those later calls for Udba – « Owl » and those things …

« You know, » I continued, « I think communism, by meaningless, produced, produced, completely unnecessary, dangerous opponent. From pure peace. Unnecessary. »

Sex took serious liberalization in 1971, before the breakdown of spring, and resented Udbi for the control of the letters. From then until 1991 he was in the service of the service.

« I am, » said Seks, « he was a convinced communist and Yugoslav. But they really tread me, and that panting disappeared and old beliefs … »

Seks was a master of procedures, nomotechnics, fiscal, branch and political shells, probably the most capable opponent of his former companions, communists who became Esdepes. In such a skilled way, he modified the constituencies and election laws that the HDZ was unconquerable under it. Srećko Jurdan The term « gerrymandering » translated into Croatian as « Shekimandering ».

I was glad that Seks confirmed my intuitive cognition, about the enemy of the regime that did not exist but was produced from pure peace. After that, he continued to tell the story of 1971, but you were already a topic for a new text. Democracy, whatever flaws are, does not produce opponents like this.
