- Utterly disappointed by EU media ignoring the students’ movement and protests in Serbia, a candidate state. For example, Austrian media entirely ignores what is happening. Vučić is tolerated by the EU and the reason for this is lithium mining and cheap work force.
- Excellent reflection on protests in Serbia written by Slavoj Žižek. The EU should end its hypocrisy and support Serbian students against autocracy! EU green politics should not coast Serbia its environment. www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/s...
