Why the President’s decision to understood the pilot is not controversial

As a citizen of the Republic of Slovenia, I would like to draw attention to the record of the rejected initiative for the afterlife of New Zealand Pilot Brian Jeffaresthe initiative was addressed to the Office of the President of the Republic. In his record, the writer is unfounded by the official rejection of the initiative to award the brave behavior of the New Zealand pilot and characterize it disrespectfully as an indispensable president’s decision Natasha Pirc Musar.

It is perceived by the writer’s premise to portray the president as a man without a heart culture in an unfounded manner by publicity and a misunderstanding of a political opportunity – a gesture towards a New Zealand citizen. With the undertones equipped quote, every reasonable person immediately recognizes as a public attack on the integrity of the President and to portray a philanthropic initiative as a non -state, unethical political incorrect act.

I do not want to repeat the disrespectful quote in my record. I want to state my agreement and opinion and justified reasons for rejecting the initiative. The damaged aircraft, piloted by a New Zealand citizen, returned to its base with unpaved bombs through the city of Maribor. Due to the injury, the load on the aircraft with explosive cargo was unnecessary and dangerous and was questioned by a successful return. The lives of the crew of the aircraft were threatened. A dangerous cargo had to be discarded. The pilot decided to throw the cargo to the populated part of the city of Maribor (allegedly discarded in the vicinity of the train station), although he could do so earlier or later in the event of a populated area, anywhere in an unoccupied or less inhabited area.

Unfortunately, he obviously did not think of civilian victims – the residents of the city. I believe that the uncontrolled disposed of the cargo of the city, in order to solve the life of a five -member crew of war plane, inhumane the pilot’s decision, and is a reasonable reason for rejecting the initiative to honor the pilot. Perhaps, under international law for uncontrolled location, a deliberately targeted explosive means into an inhabited area with civilian population from the point of view of the Republic of Slovenia even a crime?

I also think that the New Zealand pilot for the bravery and noble behavior of the plane crashing, with the sacrifice of his life, for the solution of the crew deserves honor and honor and recognition of the National New Zealand Office and the affection of the New Zealand President.

What is to do to the writer of the article, unjustly disappointed initiator for the publicly unfounded two -person president of the Republic of Slovenia and for its rightly refused honor of the Republic of Slovenia to the Pilot of the New Zealand State, to judge readers themselves.
