This week in Serbia
Serbia's foreign policy was in focus as it was the sole European country not to support a recent declaration on Ukraine and President Vučić refused to sign a joint statement at a Kyiv summit. Concurrently, Serbia is set to sign the NASA Artemis Accords and confirmed its first private placement of government bonds for defense. Domestically, a minister's 'ethnic cleansing' remarks drew condemnation, while ongoing controversies included overturned indictments in a train station canopy collapse case and protests against alleged police brutality.
About Serbia
Serbia, a country at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe, boasts a rich historical tapestry, vibrant cultural heritage, and diverse landscapes ranging from the Pannonian Plain to mountainous regions. Its media environment is notably polarized, with pro-government outlets largely dominating the market, while independent investigative media operates under considerable pressure, reflecting the country's hybrid regime.
