I know that some people do not like me politically because of my journalism, so that will certainly not change with this book, neither for the better nor for the worse. Last week, an extreme right-wing weekly published a cover with pictures of the seven of us and the headline: "Seven beat journalists". Somehow I don't believe that one book can change that much. But - I have my audience, both newspaper and book. The book is selling well in Croatia, which means that some people have a need for this kind of complicating things

Why do we live, make friends, talk with any member of the police and special units who mercilessly beat students and citizens? Why don't we use the endless possibilities of civil disobedience that are available to us"
A great focus on acquiring and increasing material wealth is often a sign of inner poverty, loneliness or even depression, which a person does not recognize or try to overcome. Unfortunately, acquiring new goods - regardless of their size or value - provides only a short-lived sense of fulfillment, and often leads to an even deeper emptiness. Because, as every child should know, we can only call what we create and those we loved our own

Sporadic actions of the opposition are of less and less interest to the public. The people are starting to self-organize in the absence of faith that the current political parties can fundamentally change anything. On the other hand, the regime is shaken, but until the prosecutor and the police start making arrests on their own for corruption, and not by order, a political solution must be sought for what is happening in Serbia

"It is actually true that Serbia was invited to join the meeting, but decided not to do so," Ferguson's announcement points out. "There is a reason why the Global Charter of the International Federation of Journalists encourages 'checking facts, sources or more in response' to those who are the subject of media captions. The Code of Journalists of Serbia also recognizes 'the right of the media to have different editorial concepts', but also 'the obligation of journalists and editors to make a clear distinction between the facts they report, comments, assumptions and guesses'. In both cases, the desire is that reputable newspapers do not embarrass themselves by publishing untruths," said Ferguson. As the ambassador stated, it is unfortunate that this text sees a conspiracy in every meeting of Serbia's neighbors. "Britain is proud to be the host of this year's Berlin Process, which, over six months, brought together representatives of the countries of the Western Balkans in 21 meetings in 10 different countries, to discuss solving practical problems in regional trade, connectivity and cooperation," said the ambassador.
