EPO, Lufthansa, and the German Government - Part X: In Closing

Another trademark scandal: Battistelli's Furious Love Affair With French Power: Part V

EPO, Lufthansa, and the German Government



Summary: The latest and last part of this ongoing series regarding the trademark dispute in Croatia

THIS series does not end here. Over the course of the past fortnight we have received additional information from various sources, but today we'd like to wrap things up. Here is the list of previous parts:



Bellow are some closing words regarding Željko Topić (EPO Vice-President), who faces several serious cases against him while currently enjoying the diplomatic shelter of the EPO.




ENIn his campaign against the trademark owner, the suspected criminal Topić has proceeded in a manner which reveals the baseness of his character and he has established contact with members of the family of the Air Plus trademark owner using a close friend of Bosnian descent from Banja Luka in an attempt to convince the family members that Lufthansa rather than the Air Plus trademark owner has the rightful claim to ownership.

For many years now and with a high degree of motivation Mr Topić has relentlessly pursued his criminal intentions and his efforts to conceal his unlawful acts and those of his accomplice Andrej Matijević for the benefit of Lufthansa. The Germans have a saying attributed to the nineteenth century diplomat and statesman Klemens von Metternich that the Balkans begin in Vienna. After Željko Topić's arrival at the EPO, we can safely say that the border to the Balkans has shifted from Austria to Germany and that it is now located right in the middle of the Bavarian capital of Munich.




DEDer kriminelle Topić ist in seinem speziellen Krieg weitergegangen, was über seinen primitiven Charakter spricht, und er hat Kontakt mit der Familie des Markenzeicheninhabers von Air Plus aufgenommen und hat versucht durch seinen nahen Freund bosnischer Abstammung aus Banja Luka die Familie davon zu überzeugen, daß der Markenzeicheninhaber eigentlich kein Inhaber ist, sondern, daß der richtige Inhaber die Lufthansa ist. Herr Topić ist also kontinuierlich jahrelang hochmotiviert in seiner kriminellen Absicht und Verheimlichung des Tatbestandes zum Nutzen von Lufthansa und des Partners Andrej Matijević. Die Deutschen haben einen Spruch darüber, daß der "schmutzige" Balkan in Wien anfängt. Nachdem Željko Topić in EPO gekommen ist, können wir sagen, daß die österreichische Balkangrenze tief in die Mitte von Bayern, in die Stadt München verschoben wurde.
