(What did the richest man of Macedonia answer when a tv-host asked him, live, to describe the smell of a vagina - and what does all this have to do with Estonia, "moderately racist", being EU member-state from which our gay ambassador runs away because it is unbearable to live there?) If this Hans Glaubitz, His Excellency, the Ambassador of The Kingdom of the Netherlands, did not have to pack-up and leave Tallinn, Estonia, you would have hardly ever heard of Vesna Petrusevska - Baby a sit-com star of the Macedonian tube. But then, also, I would have never be enticed to propose you to calculate or reflect over the arguments needed to estimate the distance, along the road of emancipation, between EU member-state Estonia and EU candidate-states Macedonia and Turkey. {A tip-off: Estonia is half-sunk in the swamp of ugliest of prejudices while Turkey and Macedonia is 19,43 light-years away up in the galaxies of emancipation). So, back to Glaubitz and Baby. Advertised on huge billboards around Skopje, Mrs. Petrusevska, Baby, is surely better known in the capital of her land than Glaubitz in Tallinn. She does not have a lesbian friend but is a happily married woman and a caring mother of two adopted kids. But she is just as controversial in Skopje as this Dutch clerk diplo-homophilique is in Tallinn. Not long ago she produced a tsunami asking (live on TV) the richest man of the land and now the mayor of the capital, whether he would be so kind to describe the odor, the smell of the vagina. Well, many people, families glued around to the TV, felt uneasy with the question, but nothing happened. The press wanted to jump up on that platform but then sort of cooled off. Vesna - Baby continued jogging along the banks (excitingly well landscaped) of river Vardar and the richest man went on being even richer and mightier. [ (Pic on the left: Probably the two richest men of Macedonia. The guy on the left writes poetry in which he claims he loves to lick pink vaginas which did not bother him or the public to be a prime-minister. The guy on the right trades with hard stuff like iron and other metals but was faced with "the smell-of-vagina" question by the popular Baby, top photo) Only Macedonia got stuck, with the positive "avis" about her candidate-status, out in the cold, far away from the warm fireplace of the EU enjoyed by these tough Estonians. According Rainer Kattel, professor of political science from Tallinn University, "Estonia does have latent racism" and more:"If you are openly gay and of a different race people will make mean comments to you". The absurd of this situation, this mockery of euro-standards, is that Bernard Bot needed to make Beatrix sign the Royal Decree (for this homo to be her envoy, her minister plenipotentiary end extraordinary to Estonia) so that we, the whole world, be reminded how difficult it is to enforce emancipation. "You can take away by force, but you cannot give by force". I do not know what more does this Bernard Bot want to happen before he resigns? He brings this country in awkward position. He does not have a clue how the very big or quite small will react to his words and actions. What does he know then, this retired master-diplomat? He admits that Condoleezza had put him in a freezer. What does it mean for the country? Now that his hand-picked homo and his black Cuban partner flee the booing peasants and skinheads of Estonia WE are faced with a much wider discussion about the EU cultural differences and the enlargement process. Is that, actually, what Bot wanted? This blond Hans could not kiss black Jose in public without being booedor looked down upon. And that is why he decides to spit on the Estonians as a nation, to leave the post and alert the media before he goes to Canada. What does Bot run, a summer camp of queer scouts or a disciplined diplomatic corps? My modest opinion is that Bot should have sent my clever self, me, ambassador to Estonia. Why this Hans Glaubitz? Who the muck he is? Why is he being sent consul-general to Montreal? Does his Cuban lover prefer snowy winters? The Estonians have just ratified the European Constitution and stupid enough Jan-Peter says HE will not have another referendum on the subject. What does he want to say? That the Estonians are idiots to be the 15th nation that ratifies the document? He will not have the chance even if he wanted to: Come next May - WE will throw him out of office. So What is all this mess about? Nothing else but Incompetence and Arrogance.
