Women Leaders for the Reconstruction of Ukraine – Students for Justice in Serbia

Report from Kiev and a conversation about Serbian student blockades

Ukrainians will welcome the third New Year with war. The situation on the fronts has little chance of changing without a political solution, but therefore the activities for making plans for the reconstruction of the country in the post-war period are becoming more prominent. From Ukraine, we include Iryna Drobovych, founder of the The Day After Foundation, with whom we discuss the need to plan and inspire the reconstruction of Ukraine in advance.

In Serbia, however, the protests became massive after students from all faculties went on a blockade. They received support from professors, and after them the High School Students' Union also started to block. Our film director Leonid Velkovski, who studies at the Novi Sad Faculty, is also a guest in today's edition of Labyrinth. We discuss the activities and demands of Serbian students.

Syria freed from dictator, but terrorism is still a threat

Interview with war reporter Bud Wichers

After 13 years of civil war, the regime of Bashar al-Assad in Syria has fallen almost without a fight. The rebel HTS (Hayat Tahrir al-Sham) has taken power and is trying to make a peaceful transition. In the meantime, the US, Israel and Turkey are bombing places that are strongholds of ISIS, the Kurdish party or places that are suspected of having remnants of chemical weapons used by Assad. In this episode, we talk to war reporter Bud Wichers from the Netherlands who has been reporting from Syria since the very beginning of the uprising in 2011. Wichers has extensive experience reporting from the Middle East, and in Syria he reported from the biggest hot spots and was in contact with almost all the factions fighting in Syria. He says it is good that the regime has finally fallen, but he is still suspicious of possible terrorist hot spots, that is, he suspects that HTS has severed all ties with its previous “umbrella” Al Nusra Front, which was practically the Syrian branch of Al Qaeda.

After Albania resolved its bilateral disputes, the fight against corruption is the last step towards the EU

The arrest of the ex-President Meta, the migrant camps and the EU path of Albania in the focus of this Labyrinth.

Albania started a fierce fight against corruption - this is how Albanian citizens see the arrest of the former President, Ilir Meta. With colleague Arber Hitaj from Report TV from Tirana, we discuss the arrest and trust in the Special Prosecutor's Office.

After Tirana, Von der Leyen visited Skopje. From the Government, she assured the citizens that expansion remains the focus of the European agenda. Neither the President Von der Leyen, nor Prime Minister Mickoski gave a concrete answer to the question of whether the proposal for delayed implementation of the possible constitutional amendments is acceptable to the EU.
