Czech Labels NT Intervention 'Stalinist'

ABC News | September 30, 2007

A Czech archaeologist in Adelaide for a conference on world heritage has described Australia's treatment of Aboriginal people as Stalinist.

Dr Jan Turek was the keynote speaker last night at the World Archaeological Conference which focuses on heritage and tourism.

He says the Australian Government's intervention plan in the Northern Territory sounds like a policy from communist Europe.

"To my mind, if one side, let's say the government, one responsible side is wanting to help someone, the help has to be agreed.

"The help has to be as a result of a consensus really between both sides."
