The Ministry of Liewords
Ukrainian MFA spokesperson Heorhii Tykhyi responded sharply to Serbian Minister Boris Bratina's claim that Croats and Ukrainians should be punished with territory.

Putin’s war against the reality of planet Earth
The predominant political sentiment in Serbia and its national ambition is the revanchism for the lost wars of the 1990.
