Serb Opposition to Call General Strike

BELGRADE, Sep 28, 2000 -- (Reuters) The Serbian opposition will call on
people to stage a general strike to try to force Yugoslav President Slobodan
Milosevic to accept election defeat, Democratic Party leader Zoran Djindic said
on Thursday.

"We will call citizens to a total protest and total resistance, a total boycott,
a
peaceful general strike," Djindjic told the Novi Sad radio station 021.

"We will call on people not to send their children to school, for theatres and
cinemas not to work, for everyone to go out onto the streets and stay on the
streets until he who wants to be president by force gives up his post," he said.

The opposition insists that their presidential candidate, Vojislav Kostunica,
won an
outright majority in last Sunday's election, but the state electoral body said
neither
side reached the 50 percent of the vote needed for a first round victory and
called
for a second round of voting to be held.
