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.

Kurti faces two scenarios – Coalition with the opposition or with minorities
Labyrinth in Kosovo
Albin Kurti’s party, Self-Determination, received the most votes in Kosovo’s regular parliamentary elections. These are the first regular elections since Kosovo’s independence in 2008. The current prime minister will have to form a coalition if he wants to retain the prime minister’s office. Analysts we spoke say that Kurti has two options, either a coalition with the opposition or with minorities. Negotiations are just beginning. In the campaign, which passed peacefully, the focus of politicians was mainly on ethnic issues, while the focus of the people, however, is on real social problems such as the economy, emigration and corruption. We talk to journalist Vjosa Cerkini in Pristina about all these issues, as well as about Kosovo’s international relations under the leadership of Albin Kurti. In Mitrovica, we spoke with political analyst Nexhmedin Spahiu, and in North Mitrovica, we asked citizens what they think about these elections.

As long as there are quotas and the need for special laws, we do not have gender equality
Women in the private security sector
In the first March edition of Labyrinth, we talk about women in the private security sector with the Secretary General of the Chamber of Private Security, Sanja Kermetchieva. Similar to the state, in the private security sector only 10% of the employees are women. As long as we talk about quotas, as long as we count how many women are in certain positions, regardless of whether it is in the highest state positions, whether it is a position of women managers, whether they are in rectors, in dean's administrations and so on, in any which position or in specific jobs in security, how many women are police officers, how many in private security, how many are soldiers...
Until then and while we are talking about this and while there is a need for special conventions, special laws and policies in companies, we are facing with gender inequality. -
