Analysis with journalist Sead Rizvanović and report from the Zelensky’s visit to the summit in Tirana
The guest in this edition of Labyrinth is fellow journalist Sead Rizvanović, with whom we analyzed the military situation, as well as potential hotspots such as the Transnistria region in Moldova. Rizvnovic says there is a real threat of the war spilling over. Labyrinth was also in Tirana to follow the first visit of the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to the Balkans. The summit organized by Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama was attended by all Balkan leaders, as well as the President of Moldova, Maya Sandu. The President of North Macedonia, Stevo Pendarovski, said in a short statement that everyone is there to confirm their support for Ukraine. The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, who is the only leader in the region who refuses to impose sanctions on Russia, also stopped briefly. Although we insisted on an answer, Vucic in his style (didn't) answer the question. A Declaration in support of Ukraine was also signed, in which several terms were changed at the request of the Serbian president.

Old parliamentary majority – tectonic changes in some member states after the Union elections
Analysis with Andreja Stojkovski: the European elections and Macedonian bilateral relations with the neighbors
The European elections ended without a change in the parliamentary majority, but with an increase in the number of far-right MPs. The composition of the European Parliament may not undergo major changes, but changes are taking place in the domestic politics of member states with great political influence. What this will mean for the Union and its individual policies in the future, we analyze with Andreja Stojkovski from the Prespa Institute. The enlargement policy, the green agenda, as well as the Common Foreign and Security Policy are some of the topics we discussed. We also analyzed our strained relations with our neighbors and the expectations from the future Macedonian Government when it comes to bilateral agreements with the neighbors.
