Through the Eyes of a Marked Journalist: Dinko Gruhonjić on Media, Fear, and Serbia’s Student Revolt
In this third and final article on the Serbian student movement, the Foundation Max van der Stoel and the International Foundation GroenLinks once again joined forces. We had the opportunity to speak with Dinko Gruhonjić, a journalist with over two decades of experience and programme director of the Independent Journalists’ Association of Vojvodina (NDNV). In addition to his media work, Mr. Gruhonjić is also a professor at the University of Novi Sad. The mass student protests in Serbia are still ongoing, as the demands, focusing on demanding justice and accountability of the ruling government, have not been met by the Serbian regime. One of the most prominent topics Gruhonjić highlights is the struggle over national broadcasting, which is increasingly losing its independence. Lately, students and other citizens have blocked the national broadcaster’s headquarters for over a week. In this interview, we discuss the role of the media in Serbia, the ongoing protests, solidarity within the academic community, and the broader role of the EU and geopolitical tensions in the region.
What Ukrainians Need: Voices from the Ground on European Support
Over the past few weeks, leaders from 30 nations have gathered in Paris to discuss Ukraine’s protection, with European commitments under scrutiny. The Dutch government, cautious about its financial pledges, is debating GroenLinks-PvdA’s proposal to allocate an additional €500 million annually in military aid. As political debates unfold, Ukrainians on the ground continue to navigate the war’s brutal realities. To understand their perspectives, IFG spoke with representatives from the Ukrainian Green Party and the NGO Green Youth of Ukraine, its youth branch. Their message is clear: Ukraine needs more than just weapons, it needs comprehensive and long-term support.
Frontlines of Democracy: what we should learn from the Eastern European protests
Citizens in Serbia, Georgia, and Croatia are rising up against corruption, abuse of power, and the erosion of the rule of law. Governments are cracking down on journalists, activists, and students, but resistance is growing – both on the streets and online. How can Europe support this fight for democracy?
