Another introduction was made by the association "Diagonale de Tchernobyl".

Then 4 well known and politically committed performers lend their support to the celebration for the promotion of world citizenship ideas:

• Serge UTGE ROYO

• Annik ROUX

The 350 people room was packed. Documents were distributed at the entry and at the end of the show

The public has appreciated this evening presentation and The World Citizen message went through forcefully.

We the musicians of the world, approve the idea of a world government through the universal language of music….We ask our fellow artists to join us as world citizens by participating to the crusade for a world government.

For the thirtieth anniversary of this appeal, an important meeting took place on March 3rd 1996. It is during this meeting that the Peoples Congress launched its tenth election and a new appeal called the appeal of the thirtieth anniversary.
