Assistant to Minister of Culture: I have not asked for Churchill's fingers'Has it not been funny, it would be sad. That what media in Croatia published, that I have sent two secret agents to take wax from some figures at Madam Tusseu Museum in order to compare it with wax that I use in making wax statues is nonsense, to say in the least. The official site of the museum confirms that there has been no incident of that kind at all', Vladimir Tomcic, assistant to Serbia Minister of Culture says for 'Blic'.
He says that the only connection that he has with that story is his appearance on one of Belgrade television stations. He then said to have asked his two friends from London to go to the museum and try to get a sample of the wax so as to compare it with the wax that he used here.
'I said, joking, it would be good that they brought two fingers. I said that to provoke our public to show interest in the statues that I make', Tomcic said.
'Media in Croatia wrote about this in an ill-intentioned manner maybe because I am making statues of the reputable Serbs only', Tomcic concluded.
Oh, those wild & crazy Croats!
