"Francesco Capotorti. When the UN was working on preparing the convention which later became known as the ‘Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide’, linguistic and cultural genocide was discussed along with physical genocide as a serious crime against humanity. Linguistic genocide was defined – Article 3(1) – in 1948 as the ban on a group being able to use its language in everyday contact or at school, or on books being published and publications being distributed in the group’s language. At the moment, Slovakia is, unfortunately, not the only such country in the European Union, but is the most typical example of linguistic genocide, in other words, linguicide being perpetrated within an EU country. This is nothing to be pleased about because Romania, Greece and France, too, can be listed alongside Slovakia in this regard. Thank you."@en1
