Analysis of the Georgia election and a Florida survey on American expectations.
Less than a week until the most important American election in modern history. For Labyrinth, colleague Jalyssa Dugrot from Florida talked to young people about their views and expectations of the presidential candidates.
Georgia, on the other hand, is back on its feet after the elections in which the ruling "Georgian Dream" won. The people, the opposition and the international public do not recognize the results. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is the only European leader who appeared in support of his Georgian colleagues. We talk to Ekaterine Basilaia - director of the Center for Media and Social Research of Georgia about the atmosphere in Tbilisi and the reactions after the elections.

France with a challenge to form a Government - NATO with new Declarations
Reporting from Washington and Analysis from Paris
The largest military alliance marked the 75th anniversary of its existence with a Summit whose focus is the war on European soil. The leaders of the member states gathered in the American capital to confirm the commitment to help Ukraine. Some of them used the margins of the Summit for meetings related to bilateral issues. A meeting between the Macedonian and Greek Prime Ministers did not take place, and journalists behind the scenes say that there was no interest on the part of the major powers to discuss such issues within the framework of the Summit. From the press room in Washington, we include Romanian military reporter and senior political correspondent Cristina Cileacu. In addition to the fact that the Alliance confirmed the commitments to help Ukraine, Cileacu also informed us about the other agreed strategic determinations, such as declaring China a country enabling Russian aggression. We asked Chileaku tofollow up the meetings of the Macedonian Prime Minister.
From the French capital, on the other hand, we are talking with an advisor in the French Assembly on topics related to the great upheaval that occurred during the elections. Councilor Matthias Vasquez from the ranks of Macron's party talks about the mood of the voters and the actions of the parties that led to this turn. At the moment, the main challenge facing France is the election of a prime minister, which the winning coalition seems to be having difficulty electing. Vasquez is a good expert on the Macedonian and Balkan situations, given the fact that he was previously on missions in these countries, so we used this call to ask him for his opinion on the French proposal that was imposed after the Bulgarian veto announcements.
Watch the entire show.

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. Topics of conversation were the migrant camp, as well as European integration, that is, the unblocked road for Albania and the Balkan tour of the President of the European Commission, Ursula Von der Leyen, which started right from Tirana.
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.

Kalach: It is unlikely that Netanyahu will be arrested
Legal analysis of the decision of the International Criminal Court and the proceedings in front of the Macedonian courts.
The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his defense minister and three Hamas leaders. What this means, who would arrest Netanyahu, and where he is safe from criminal prosecution, we talk to lawyer Yasmin Kalach. Kalach does not believe that the Israeli prime minister would travel to countries that are signatories to the Rome Statute to avoid being detained. Israel's argument that this decision equates both sides is untenable, the lawyer believes, and says that the court made such a decision because it is not selective. Meanwhile, Spain, Ireland and Norway have recognized the Palestinian state.
We also discussed the two legal processes currently underway in Macedonia: the detention of Supreme Judge Georgiev for taking a bribe, as well as the extradition of the double murder suspect Palco and the start of his trial. Watch the full analysis.
