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.

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.
