It’s hard to fathom what universe Kurti’s coalition government has been living in for the past two years, but here we are.
Successive agreements & coziness with the Israeli government can't be excused as “state interests”; they reflect the moral and political decay within the ruling parties.

"Girlhood At War" made it home!
Unlike anything I’ve written before, this book is a personal story about growing up during Serbia's war against Kosovo and about finding myself, at 14, translating for US NATO troops in its aftermath. (Yes, the young girl in these pictures is me.)

In the cacophony of anti-corruption protests in Serbia and public anger over the EU’s lithium agreement, it is disturbing to see large protest factions platforming Srebrenica genocide denial, glorifying Putin and the good old anti-Albanian fascism. www.instagram.com/reel/DNWZXCP...

Actual footage of academics who, after 20 months of a live-streamed genocide in Gaza, have suddenly become enlightened — and decided it’s now better for their careers to call a spade a spade.
