Chronicle of the announced shipwreck

After the fall of Prime Minister Michel Barnier's government, the political crisis in France took on a completely new and unexpected dimension. And while Emmanuel Macron (pictured) persistently denies any responsibility for its origin and deepening, the question is whether the future prime minister will manage to achieve a minimum of political compromise and find a hypothetical majority in the Parliament and thus stop the worrying political, budgetary and wider social crisis into which France fell

Macron presented a new, mostly right-wing government

The new government of France will be largely right-wing, and the new Prime Minister Michel Barnier, a conservative who was the EU's main negotiator with Great Britain on Brexit, was introduced at the beginning of September.

Citizens on the Street: A Universal Act Against Shameless Predation

The two tragedies in Serbia carry a universal gene in them: the horror is common, the sadness is shared by all of us. This horror and this sadness are not preceded by political divisions. But despite that, the nature of Vučić's rule, as well as the mentality of the people gathered at the court, does not allow for a universal model that is a direct effect of civilization.

Capitulation to protests: A tactical move

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, was defeated by "the street". At least in one isolated case. It has been shown that in a progressive democracy, the recipe is for citizens to fight for their vital interests, to gather in sufficient numbers on the streets, to be persistent enough, not to be afraid of arrest, not to back down in front of beatings, to come up with sufficiently radical demonstrations and to they organize well
