The Belgrade-Prishtina dispute and the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina are the points in the Balkans that, according to the latest intelligence report made public, are of concern to Western partners. Diplomatic efforts to resolve at least some of the open issues have intensified. High representatives of the USA and the EU visiting Prishtina with recommendations, but also with conditions.

With the journalist Adisa Imamović from Sarajevo, we talked about the expectations of the citizens, about the lack of possibility of an agreement between the political actors in BiH, but also about the political moves of Milorad Dodik that go in the direction of destabilizing the already fragile situation in Bosna and Herzegovina.

Dimitrova: Everyone supported Zaharieva's candidacy for EC
A conversation with the journalist Dimitrova about the situation in Bulgaria and the Macedonian issue.
Bulgaria is facing the seventh parliamentary elections and has been in a political crisis for three years due to the inability to elect a stable government. In the pre-election, Macedonia is even more part of the rhetoric of the political contenders and it seems as if that is the only point on which they agree.
The guest in this edition of Labyrinth is the journalist Tonya Dimitrova from the National Service, with whom we talked not only about the elections, but also about the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights that Bulgaria does not want to implement, the constitutional amendments that they require from us, as well as about the problems that Zaharieva has in her political career towards European institutions.

The Student Edict Brings All of Serbia to Niš
Report from the Great March 1st Rally – Part Two
The city of Niš has never been louder. Literally all the streets were filled with people who came from all over Serbia to support the students who are demanding justice for the terrible accident that took 15 lives. After a five-day walk, the students had the strength to stand on the streets of Niš for 18 hours. Citizens joined them because, as they say, the students' demands are the demands of the people. The atmosphere was very emotional, and hugs were a common sight in the streets. The students had a cultural program, sports and social activities, and in the main part they read the student edict, followed by a musical program. The city was full until midnight and then cleaned up by the students and citizens who voluntarily stayed to help them.
