Tesla belongs to all of humankind

Giving opening statements at the international scientific conference “The Life and Work of Nikola Tesla,” Croatian President Stjepan Mesić said that Tesla is most fascinating because of his genius and his contributions to science and technology.

Mesić said that every electric pole is a monument to Tesla and that no other individual in history has received such honours.

“Even if he did nothing more than introduce alternate-current power, his name would still remain forever written in the book of people who are most responsible for the development of human civilisation. ” Mesić said.

“Tesla should not be claimed or shared by anyone. His name is the world’s heritage, a heritage without which the world would be drawn apart, and lacking in riches. Croatia is happy that he was born under its wing, in Smiljan in Lica, a man who gave so much to the world and humankind was born.” Mesić said.

A Scientific Studies park and monument dedicated to Nikola Tesla will be unveiled on July 10 in the village of Smiljan.

Bure baruta pred eksplozijom: Počinje veliki rat?

Bliski istok, zbog promene ravnoteže snaga i dubokih kriza, pre svega palestinsko-izraelske, može se smatrati buretom baruta i ima potencijal da dovede ne samo do regionalnog sukoba, već i do globalnog konflikta.
