Tirana and Belgrade callings
Census in Albania devastating for the Macedonian minority. Only 2,281 Macedonians and almost 8,000 Bulgarians, although Bulgarians in Albania have never been enumerated before. How was that manipulation of the census process carried out and what can be done now, we ask the ex-member of the Albanian Parliament, Vasil Sterjovski. Reactions and complaints have already been sent to international institutions, and there are also reactions from the Macedonian Minister of Foreign Affairs.
A terrorist attack in Serbia shook the Balkans. An attacker with a crossbow shot a policeman in front of the Israeli embassy in Belgrade. From Belgrade, we include the professor from the Faculty of Diplomacy and Security, Marija Gjorić, with whom we discuss the specific person who carried out the attack, but also analyze whether there is a danger of new terrorist attacks in the Balkans.

FOCUS ON SERBIA
Serbian students are not giving up on blockades. After the 24-hour blockade of Belgrade’s Avtokomanda, Novi Sad will be blocked this weekend. Three months have passed since the terrible accident that took 15 lives and the same number of months since the student blockades that woke up all of Serbia.
In this episode of Labyrinth, we talk to Aleksandra Krstic, a professor at the Faculty of Political Sciences in Belgrade, who was also a candidate for a member of REM, the regulatory body for the supervision of electronic media, but together with 6 other professors withdrew their candidacies due to numerous irregularities in the process.
We also talk to fellow journalist, Nikola Krstic, who is one of the journalists facing public lynching and labeling by pro-government tabloids.

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. -
Dolidze: Georgians are not giving up on the fight for a European future – There will be protests even during the holidays
Georgians will welcome the New Year with protests and will not give up on their European future – says the Leader of the For the People party, Anna Dolidze. Dolidze is an expert in international law, until 2018 she was the legal advisor to the President, and then a member of the Judicial Council.
In Labyrinth we talked about the stolen elections and the Russian hybrid influence that managed to divert the country from the European integration path. The protests escalated, and the use of water cannons and violence by the police did not change the Georgians’ minds to continue fighting for their rights. About 500 protesters, including some injured, will spend the holidays in detention. We also discussed with Dolidze the international support and the sanctions imposed by the US and the UK on some of the Georgian authorities, but not by the European Union.
