H.E. Ambassador Galip Balkar was killed by Armenian terrorist organisation ASALA on March 9, 1983, in Resavska street in his official car as he stood on the traffic light.
Not far from the assassination place, a Serbian student Željko Milivojević was also killed, trying to catch terrorists. Embassy of the Republic of Turkey organised this commemoration to remind the public of this tragic event and emphasise that terrorism is a global threat that no one is spared.
