—🐶 While the Serbian president was delivering a speech, two stray dogs wandered into the frame, briefly hijacking the scene and drawing attention away from the address itself.

➡️ The light-hearted moment underlined a serious and long-running problem across the Balkans, where large stray dog populations continue to pose public safety and animal welfare challenges despite repeated calls for more effective management.

—🇹🇷 NEW: A viral claim that the “current prince of the Ottoman royal family” married another man last week has been debunked, with descendants of the dynasty preparing legal action against a US‑based Turkish man accused of falsely presenting himself as an Ottoman prince and exploiting the family name on social media.

➡️ The individual, using the name “Sina Osmanoglu” online, reportedly announced a same-sex marriage as “the first marriage in my dynasty,” prompting public backlash and a statement from genuine family members that he is not part of the Ottoman lineage.​

🇷🇺 🇷🇸 🇺🇳 Russia Demands Release of Ratko Mladić

At a recent UN Security Council session, Russia criticized the International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals (IRMCT) for refusing the humanitarian release of 82-year-old Serbian General Ratko Mladić, citing severe health issues including high blood pressure, diabetes, muscle atrophy, impaired mobility, kidney strain, and progressive dementia. Russia called for his urgent transfer to Serbia for palliative care, warning the Mechanism would bear responsibility for his death.

Similarly, Radovan Karadžić, first president of RS, imprisoned in the UK, faces poor medical care and psychological pressure, including constant artificial lighting that prevents normal sleep, restricted visits from Serbian Orthodox priests, and threats from other, mostly muslim inmates. Russia condemned these conditions as cruel and in violation of the “Mandela Rules,” calling for IRMCT oversight.

Moscow also urged transferring all remaining functions of the Hague Mechanism to member states, labeling it temporary and unnecessary, and expects its complete closure by 2026.

This is one of those cases where they have you looking at the shiny political toy of the past. Already talked about it.

If you're with these Jews - you're just not going to make it. You're low IQ and are a liability to Southern Slavs.

Really disappointed in many telegram "news" channels these days. This story pops up every couple of years; 2017, 2022 being the last couple of times.

Non-story, these two will die. In jail. Where they belong. They are race traitors. Responsible for the displacement of millions, sent the region backwards by decades.

Worst of all -- are responsible for allowing the entrance of Islamists into the region.

Two of the biggest threats to the Balkans:

Dumb niggers
Diaspora niggers

The dumb nigger will learn history as the state sees fit. He'll hold on to that until he dies or is convinced otherwise; hard to do but not impossible. For whatever reason -- he believes someone is fighting for his benefit. Those above him will use his ignorance against him for the rest of his life.

The diaspora nigger will be an outcast his whole life trying to find his identity between multiple worlds, afraid to pick one or unable to. His tragedy is that usually he's shipped off to Western society where the majority become assimilated to vastly different cultures.

The dumb nigger will be used to stage local fires, the diaspora nigger will be used to fan the flames globally.

They work in tandem. Re-educate the dumb nigger and repatriate the remaining salvageable diaspora.
