Podcasts about Balkans

Migrantska kriza ponovo puni medijske stupce u Bosni i Hercegovini i regiji, ali ne zbog novog vala migranata, već zbog planova EU i Velike Britanije o izgradnji migrantskih centara na Balkanu. BiH se spominje kao jedna od potencijalnih lokacija, što je izazvalo brojne reakcije i upozorenja. Da li će Balkan postati skladište za migrante? O mogućim posljedicama Maja Marić razgovara s kolegom Amirom Sužnjem i prof. Sandijem Dizdarevićem, stručnjakom za sigurnost. Von Maja Maric.

Baljvine so kraj v Bosni in Hercegovini, kjer je ob razpadu nekdanje Jugoslavije živelo 1500 ljudi, polovica Srbov in polovica Bošnjakov. Navkljub etnični in verski razdeljenosti, so tudi med državljansko vojno živeli v sožitju in se izognili krvavim konfliktom. Kako jim je uspelo in kakšno je sporočilo iz Baljvin v Bosni in Hercegovini, v državi, ki se zdi še naprej vrelišče za nove in nove spore?Balkan je tektonsko dejaven prostor. Pogosti so potresi. Na površju nemirnih tal pa pretresi. Razpad nekdanje Jugoslavije so zaznamovali krvavi spopadi med narodi, ki so nekoč sobivali pod isto streho. So tri desetletja po koncu vojn razpoke miru kaj manj globoke? Kako zaceliti še vedno boleče rane, kako povezati razdvojene svetove? In kje iskati veziva, ki lahko utrdijo krhki mir? V raziskovalni seriji Vala 202 “Razpoke miru” odkrivamo zgodbe sobivanja, ki prinašajo žarke upanja in kažejo, da je vsaj premirje mogoče.

Biden was cognitive impairments during presidency have come to light for the Mainstream, finally. But we can't talk about it because he has cancer too. Have some decency! A segment about a Reddit neckbeard blowing himself up leads to a conversation about hobbies and how to be a man. Comey wants to 86 the red on his balance sheet and sell some books. He's so artsy. Columbia might have a new leader soon, one not so comfy with the Chiners. Fascism experts are leaving America in a pure fact and definitely not fear porn report. Speaking of Fascism, Europe falls in line with Empress Ursala desires, while the Balkans are in a state of Chaos. Better get out that pride flag and be on the Left side of history.

Entre l'Est et l'Ouest, entre héritages post-communistes et ambitions européennes, la Roumanie est un pays à la croisée des chemins. Depuis son entrée dans l'Union européenne en 2007, elle a profondément transformé ses institutions, son économie, et sa diplomatie. Ancrée dans l'espace euro-atlantique, elle reste pourtant attentive aux équilibres régionaux et aux pressions géopolitiques, qu'elles viennent de Moscou, de Washington, ou plus récemment de Pékin. Comment la Roumanie s'affirme-t-elle dans un environnement régional instable, entre la guerre en Ukraine, les tensions dans les Balkans, et les recompositions du monde multipolaire ?Émission enregistrée depuis Bucarest. Invités :  Alison Mutler, directrice du site web «Universul.net» Cristian Preda, professeur de Sciences politiques à l'Université de Bucarest. Ancien député européen Cristian Pirvulescu, politologue, professeur à la Faculté de Sciences politiques, École Nationale des Études Politiques et d'administration de Bucarest.

Hotels were mostly booked with cash via OTAs, with some offset using Capital One travel credits. Angie and her travel companion rented a car for their road trip, visiting Lake Bled, the Julian Alps, and iconic caves like Postojna, before crossing into Italy and heading down the Istrian coast into Croatia. Highlights included truffle tasting tours, the Roman ruins in Pula, and the stunning Plitvice Lakes. Angie strongly recommends Slovenia for its beauty, affordability, and mild summer weather.

Die “Bergfreundinnen” Antonia Schlosser, Katharina Kestler und Lisa Bartelmus berichten in ihrem gleichnamigen Podcast über ihr Leben mit den Bergen. In ihrem Buch “Wilde Berge des Balkan” (Ullstein, 2025) berichten sie von ihrer abenteuerliche Wanderung am “High Scardus Trail“ durch Nordmazedonien, Kosovo und Albanien - ganze 175km und 10.000 Höhenmeter! Wir unterhalten uns in dieser Folge kritisch über die sogenannte “Wildnis”, warum Abenteuer (endlich) nicht mehr nur Männern vorbehalten sind, welche Herausforderungen es für Frauen bei Bergabenteuern gibt, und was Feminismus eigentlich mit Bergsport zu tun hat.

Rouleur's Chris Marshall-Bell explores the roads, culture and politics of the first-ever Grande Partenza taking place across the Adriatic Sea in Albania.

From the vibrant liveliness of the capital of Tirana to the peaceful winding mountain roads, from the country's communist past, its multi-faith present, to the hopes of it being the next cycling holiday destination, Chris delves into the stories behind this fascinating Balkan country.

John's guest this week is Askold Krushelnicky, a war correspondent for the last 40 years around the world. They talk over how he moved from a youngster in London in search of a career, finding it in journalism for UK national newspapers reporting on such conflicts as the Russian invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, the Balkans wars in the 1980s-90s and others around the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When NPR listeners think of reports from Italy or the Vatican, usually one name comes to mind: Sylvia Poggioli. She covered much more, of course, over the years - reporting across Europe and on the war in the Balkans. But as Poggioli tells host Scott Detrow, for this week's Reporter's Notebook series, it was the Vatican, that in some ways, was her most challenging assignment.

With a deep boots-on-the-ground experience, she details the brutality of China's one-child policy and the profound lasting effects it continues to have. She describes the scandalous adoption frenzy that took place, where officials illegally kidnapped Chinese children from their families and disappeared them. Demick found a needle in a haystack and managed to reunite one set of twins who were strewn across the planet, from America to China.

Blerim Skoro is a Kosovo-born former CIA operative whose life took a dramatic turn after deserting the Yugoslav army in the 1990s. Arriving in New York as an asylum seeker, Skoro's journey led him from a drug trafficking conviction to becoming a key informant for the FBI and CIA post-9/11. Posing as a radicalized Islamist, he infiltrated al-Qaeda networks in the Balkans, Middle East, and Pakistan, providing critical intelligence. His covert work ended after a 2010 shooting in Macedonia, when the CIA severed ties, leaving him with minimal compensation. Facing deportation in 2016, Skoro's story, detailed in the documentary The Accidental Spy, highlights the perils of espionage and abandonment by his handlers.

It's just me on the mic, exploring themes of home, belonging, and what it means to truly feel settled - both in a place and in the body. As someone who has lived all over the world, I've had plenty of cross-cultural experiences that shape how I see things.

On Tuesday President Trump said that the US would stop attacking the Houthis in Yemen because the group had "capitulated", adding that the Houthis had pledged to stop attacking ships in the Red Sea. This move comes after pressure from both regional players like Saudi Arabia - which President Trump is planning to visit - and from within the MAGA camp. Sean Mathews, a journalist for the Middle East Eye covering the Middle East, North Africa and the Balkans, joins Thanos Davelis as we look into this announcement and break down what it means for the wider region - including Greece. You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Exclusive: Saudi Arabia pressed Trump to stop attacks on Yemen ahead of visitTrump says the US will stop bombing Yemen's Houthis after rebels say they'll stop targeting shipsGreece aims to boost domestic defense industry's role, Dendias saysGreece leverages defense spending to underscore US alignmentMerz's messy path to power raises questions for future governmentMerz is weakened from Day 1.

"Saint Irene was the daughter of a princelet called Licinius; named Penelope by her parents, through a divine revelation she was brought to faith in Christ and at Baptism was renamed Irene. In her zeal for piety she broke in pieces all the idols of her father, who commanded that she be trampled underfoot by horses. But while she remained unharmed, one of the horses rose up and cast down her father, killing him. By her prayer she raised him to life again, and he believed and was baptized. Afterwards, in many journeyings, Saint Irene suffered torments and punishments for her faith, but was preserved by the power of God, while working dread miracles and converting many thousands of souls. At last she came to Ephesus, where she fell asleep in peace, in the first half of the fourth century. Two days after her death, her gravestone was found lifted off, and her grave empty. At least two churches were dedicated to St Irene in Constantinople, and she is the patroness of the Aegean island of Thera, which is commonly called Santorini, a corruption of "Saint Irene." (Great Horologion)   Note: The most famous Agia Irene church in Constantinople is not named after her, but for the Holy Peace (Greek Irene) of God, which is Christ.   The Prologue's account differs in several details. St Nikolai places St Irene in the Balkans in the town of Magedon, in apostolic times rather than the 3rd-4th century. In his account Irene learned the Christian faith from her teacher, Appelianus, and was baptised by the Apostle Timothy himself. He attributes the anger of Irene's father to her refusal to marry rather than her smashing the family idols (though of course she might have done both).

When we think about modern Europe, we tend to think about Muslims as newcomers to the continent. Professor Emily Greble, chair of the history department at Vanderbilt University, turns the tables on this assumption.   This episode looks at the Muslim communities that were living in southeastern Europe from the 1880s to the 1940s, as the imperial world collapsed and a new Europe made up of nation states emerged. More than a million Ottoman Muslims became citizens of new European states: indigenous men, women and children; merchants, peasants, and landowners; muftis and preachers; teachers and students; believers and non-believers from seaside port towns on the shores of the Adriatic to mountainous villages in the Balkans.    Join us as we talk about how Muslim histories are European histories and how Muslims helped shape modern states and societies, laws, and the European project.

By subjugating Ukraine, Putin hopes to reassert Russia's status as a great power, discourage other neighbours from pivoting west, and distract from domestic issues through nationalist fervour. Ultimately, Putin fears the erosion of Russia's imperial legacy and the contagion of democratic aspirations among his own people—making Ukraine not just a strategic interest, but an existential concern for his rule and survival. It's not about economic, territory or minerals, so why would Putin stop until he has erased Ukraine as a sovereign entity and a bulwark of democratisation? ----------Dominic Nicholls is Associate Editor for Defence) at the Telegraph and co-host of podcast ‘Ukraine: The Latest'.

Rising through the ranks of the Communist Party, he became Serbia's president in 1989 and quickly moved to consolidate power by revoking the autonomy of Kosovo and Vojvodina. His leadership fueled a wave of Serbian nationalism and played a major role in the wars in Croatia, Bosnia, and later Kosovo, supporting Serbian forces involved in ethnic violence and atrocities.Milošević's regime was marked by authoritarian control, suppression of opposition, and state-controlled media. Though he maintained popular support in the early years by presenting himself as a defender of Serbs, his policies led to international isolation, UN sanctions, and ultimately NATO intervention. In 1999, following a brutal crackdown on ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, NATO launched a bombing campaign against Serbia.Domestically, economic hardship and political repression led to growing dissatisfaction. After a disputed election in 2000, massive protests forced Milošević to resign. He was arrested in 2001 and extradited to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in The Hague, where he faced charges of war crimes, including genocide. He died in 2006 during the trial.source
