Serbian politics, current affairs and history
Dances with ruins
Foreign commentators like Rachel Maddow and Timothy Snyder, just to name a few, who come in support of the supposed anti-authoritarian, anti-corruption protests in Serbia are not doing us any favors by basing their opinions on wishful thinking and second-hand information.
Stop pestering the European Union over Serbia’s Serbian-made problems

Weep for me, said the Tu-95 bomber
There's a Serbian joke about how the Serbian ship of lunatics is the pride and joy of the Russian Navy. Whether it's the news about arms sales to Ukraine, the purchase of the French Rafale jets, or the recent visit of president Vucic to Odessa, there is always speculation about Serbia's possible departure from the orbit of Russia and China.

Intellectuals like Timothy Snyder should stop voicing their support to things that they know nothing about.
Serbian students cycled, and Jesus was their copilot
A bunch of young folks from Serbia, Europe's most polluted country, sporting rather pricey cycling gear, came to Strasbourg, France, to complain about Serbian-made problems, and like all true fighters for human rights and democracy, they made a stop at the Serbian Orthodox Christian Church in Munich.
