  1.  @Ines-uw5gi  Actually life is not this or the other, multiple scenarios cun be running at the same time. So the Serbian government CAN be incompetent on many levels and the channel owner CAN be on an USAID/NED type of NGO payroll trying to cause regime change, but not for the betterment of the average Serbian's life but the interests of US. There are several examples right now of how this thing works.

  5. The word ''parea'' which means a company of friends in Greek, seems to have Catalan origins.

  6.  @adamrakic  the guy is most probably on multiple NGO payroll (like NED or USAID) to ''raise awareness'' aka cause orange revolutions that will install favorable governments (to the US)

  7.  @veljkostaletovic6947  I imagine that this was like people having incomes from Etsy stores, Social media or even cryptocurrencies. The state did not have the tools or outright chose to ignore those incomes cause a very small number of people had those and didn’t worth the trouble. Once the number of people having these types of income increased and most and foremost once the money transaction platforms were obliged to be connected with the national central banks and give reports, the state started taxing them as any other business activity. Actually this is probably the most European thing the Serbian government has ever done lol

  9.  @Ines-uw5gi  do you presume of having some kind of monopoly in Democracy and civility and the others have to come up to your standards?

  10. @ I don’t know how old you are but you certainly have a naive view about the world. It’s all about interests and the only way to stop states at going at each other’s throat at the first chance is to make it unprofitable. The way to achieve this is to have strong trading bonds that would make any possible disruption not just unprofitable but possibly disastrous. Take for example the deals all the EU states had with Russia on cheap energy, tech products, specialized services. By cutting those ties THEN it’s when the situation becomes really dangerous because there is nothing to lose.

  11. Vučić is a clown, you are payed by NGOs to run interference 2014 Kiev style. Both scenarios can be true at the same time.
