How Vučić's policy of tyranny broke II: Serbia and Germany

The cost and consequences of the policy of annexation III: Serbia and Turkey

Singing Osman age with the buzzing of drones in Kosovo

The President of Serbia found himself in a double trap. If he tightens his relationship with Erdogan, he risks a drop in Turkish investments, job losses, and an additional and deeper approach of Pristina to Ankara.

A time of energy uncertainty

"The only solution for Serbia's energy stability - in the context of US sanctions on the Serbian oil industry - is the nationalization of this company or the forced takeover of its management. Vučić's government avoids this and in this way subordinates the interests of the citizens of Serbia to Russia. By the way, our country has the most expensive oil derivatives in the region due to Nisa's extremely monopolistic position on the market, and the consequences of the sanctions will most likely be additional price increases", are the accents from the conversation with Vasko Kelić, researcher at the Center for Economic Research of the Institute of Social Sciences and councilor of the Green-Left Front in the Belgrade municipality of Stari Grad

Seven months of Zborba

Choirs, female choir members and other citizens

There is a saying that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, and the second best time is now. Same with choirs - maybe the best time to join or form your own choir was seven months ago, and the second best time is now

Interview: Aleksandra Savić Parojčić

Unhappy children in "happy" families

The fact that in the population of our children between the ages of 11 and 19 the percentage of suicide attempts was determined to be 4,5 percent is extremely worrying. All this speaks of great mental suffering, the way out of which can be seen in the end of life. Regardless of the cognitive limitations of this age and the lack of awareness that the end really means the end and that there is no going back after such an act, we as a society can always wonder if a young person has lost trust in the world of adults so much that he did not even ask for help

Journalism and Journalism: A written press and a big uproar

The archivist of the modern Borges World Library Alef (a fictitious personalization of artificial intelligence, ChatGPT) about eight hours a day in front of screens, the attention of newspaper readers and the scattered attention of digital readers, about influencers as court fools of the digital age, about "flat earth news", about journalism and speed as the enemy of depth, about the revolution of the press in the world and in Serbia, about the support that certain countries provide in order to preserve the press and how important world newspapers strive to maintain printed editions as a pillar of their reputation - and the weekly "Vreme" as a paradigm of drama between the Gutenberg era and the digital age
