On Sunday night, hundreds of people gathered at Pulse nightclub in Kocani, North Macedonia to watch the popular hip-hop duo DNK perform. It ended in tragedy. A fire ripped through the venue killing 59 people and leaving more than 150 others injured. Reports say the fire was caused by sparks from pyrotechnic devices that hit the ceiling, which was made of highly flammable material. The incident has raised questions about how the venue was able to operate with inadequate safety measures, and if corruption has a role to play.We speak to Saska Cvetkovska, an investigative journalist in Skopje, about what we know so far and how the country is coping with the aftermath of the tragedy.

The market closed the day down on Tuesday after Nvidia pulled Wall Street lower overnight - and that resulted in the main board retreating to just above the 5-day moving average. First Agreement Under Taiwan-US 21st-Century Trade Initiative Takes Effect The first agreement under the Taiwan-US Initiative on 21st-Century Trade has officially come into effect. The Office of Trade Negotiations says the move marks a "significant milestone" in bilateral trade relations between Taipei and Washington. The agreement covers commitments to customs administration and trade facilitation, regulatory ( 監管) practices, rules for running domestic service industries, anti-corruption and small- and medium-sized enterprises. According to the Office of Trade Negotiations, the initial agreement received unanimous support from the U-S Congress and both sides will continue to discuss implementation (執行) details and share any concerns. Taipei Mayor Stressed Taipei-Shanghai Forum Aiming to Maintain Cross-Strait Peace Taipei Mayor Chiang Wan-an is stressing that his administration will be hosting Shanghai officials at next week's Taipei-Shanghai Twin City Forum to help promote peace across the Taiwan Strait. Speaking at a city government meeting, Chiang described the annual forum as a rare platform for official cross-strait dialogue (對話), which could help ease tensions between Taiwan and China. According to Chiang, Taiwan has had limited exchanges with China in recent years and he firmly believes it's "better to understand each other than to misunderstand." The 102-member Shanghai delegation to this year's forum is being led by Hua Yuan, one of the city's eight vice mayors. Israel Airstrikes Across Syria Israel carried out a wave of heavy airstrikes across Syria as its troops advanced deeper into the country. That's according to a Syrian opposition war monitor.

Israel acknowledged pushing into a buffer zone inside Syria following the overthrow of President Bashar Assad. But it remained unclear if its soldiers had gone beyond that area, which was established more than 50 years ago. Israel denied it is advancing on the Syrian capital of Damascus. Israeli officials have said they are striking military assets to prevent (防止) them from falling into the hands of extremists. US Files War Crimes Charges Against Syrian Military Officials The United States has filed war crimes charges against two high-ranking Syrian military figures who it accuses of torturing American citizens. It comes after the government of Bashar al-Assad collapsed (瓦解), with the former president fleeing the country. Nick Harper reports from Washington. NMacedonia Protests Against Air Pollution Protesters across North Macedonia have taken part in demonstrations to demand better air quality in cities that are among the most polluted in Europe. In the capital, Skopje, the protesters gathered Tuesday outside the Environment Ministry, some wearing gas masks to highlight the problem blamed by authorities for some 3,500 premature deaths annually. According to European Union health authorities, pollution levels in Skopje and other Macedonian cities often exceed World Health Organization's limits by more than four times. Pollution levels often spike during the winter months, with many urban households unable to afford (買得起) central heating, burning wood, old tires, plastic, and other waste materials.

O některých slovanských zemích a národech my Češi mnoho nevíme, protože jsme historicky měli málo příležitostí je poznat. Tak například neznáme druhý nejmenší slovanský národ Makedonce a jejich stát Severní Makedonii. Proč se jmenuje jinak než jeho obyvatelé? Čím ve světových statistikách předběhl Švýcarsko? Jak je možné, že makedonský národ pořádně vznikl až v druhé půli dvacátého století? Jak se stalo, že se Makedonii – jakožto jedné ze svazových republik bývalé Jugoslávie – vyhnuly balkánské války devadesátých let? A svedete si představit, že by v 21. století v českém hlavním městě přes noc politická moc v podstatě tajně instalovala desítky kontroverzních historizujících pomníků, o jejichž existenci by obyvatelé o den dřív neměli potuchy? O po všech stránkách pozoruhodném makedonském příběhu hovoří s Jakubem a Lukášem Novosadovými v třiadvacáté epizodě jejich sourozeneckého podcastu Hej, Slované slavista a makedonista Miroslav Kouba. Makedonie je z českého pohledu země fascinujících historických paradoxů. Jako moderní národ se Makedonci začali dotvářet s velkým zpožděním oproti jiným slovanským národům – až po druhé světové válce, již strávili v područí Bulharů na fašistické straně bojujících stran. Následně byli zaparkováni v Titově komunistické Jugoslávii, která jim svým důrazem na vyrovnání poměrů mezi svazovými národy poskytla přístřeší a klid rozvíjet se a plnohodnotně si uvědomovat sebe samé. Jako moderní samostatný stát vznikla roku 1991 tak, že se z Jugoslávie vlastně nesamostatně osamostatnila. Obyvatelstvo po nezávislosti netoužilo, protože si uvědomovalo výhody velkého slovanského státu, jenže zároveň se obávalo režimu Slobodana Miloševiće. Ten na další odtrhující se díl „odkvetlého impéria“ nezaútočil a Makedonie nakonec prožila relativně klidné devadesátky. Ačkoliv klidné… Je to země, již bez výhrad neuznává vlastně žádný z jejích sousedů (a vůči tomu bychom my Češi již měli zpozornět, jelikož ze své historie známe období, kdy jsme sousedům za uznání nestáli). Když vynecháme Kosovo, jež má po vyhlášení nezávislosti pořád dost potíží samo se sebou, tak třeba Albánie má pochopitelně zájem na dobrém postavení výrazné albánské menšiny v Makedonii, která tvoří až třicet procent obyvatelstva – i tak početnou národnostní menšinu z české historie známe. Srbsko si Makedonie zase bedlivě všímá kvůli konfesním pravoslavným sporům. Řecko sice uznává existenci slovanského obyvatelstva a jeho jazyka, ale neuznává stát, který by se jmenoval Makedonie, protože tak se jmenuje území na severu Řecka. Proto se také Makedonie od roku 2018 jmenuje Severní Makedonie, což je jeden z výsledků dlouhých a náročných makedonsko- řeckých jednání – jiným je členství země v NATO od roku 2020. Konečně Bulharsko naopak uznává makedonský stát, taky ho jako první na světě potvrdilo pod jeho ústavním názvem, leč neuznává jazykovou a národnostní svébytnost makedonského národa: má je rovněž za bulharské. Mimo jiné kvůli tomuto nekonečnému sporu Makedonie stále není členem Evropské unie. Což ale má zase jiné konsekvence: Makedonci se „natruc“ rozhodli, že místo do Evropy se raději obrátí do své velké a významné historie – která však není slovanská, takže není jejich. Komu by to ale vadilo? A tak poslední a nejdelší část epizody zabírá rozhovor o projektu „Skopje 2014“. Miroslav Kouba na prezentaci fotografií z hlavního města vypráví nejprve o ničivém zemětřesení, které více než polovinu Skopje roku 1963 srovnalo se zemí, o brutalistní výstavbě, která vyrostla na troskách předešlého města, a nakonec o kontroverzním projektu, který na začátku tohoto století brutalistní stavby začal doplňovat lacinými atrapami antických staveb s barokními prvky. Výsledky jsou neuvěřitelné, monstrózní, kýčovité, vlastně odpudivé. Ale právě proto v čemsi nesmírně přitažlivé. Aneb konečně podcast, který milovníkům tuzemského podnikatelského baroka nabízí lásky ještě mnohem víc.

Lisa discusses the significance of the "minority vote," swing states, and other topics that will impact the U.S. elections coming up in November. Dr. Carolyn Jefferson-Jenkins, Retired Ambassador Dr. Carlo Krieger, and U.S. Diplomat Meghan Dean share their thoughts on this week's show. Dr. Carolyn Jefferson-Jenkins observed the importance of having the right to vote in childhood, watching her Grandmother pick cotton in the morning and teach school in the afternoon so that people could learn how to write their names and therefore vote, once that law eventually came into place. Dr. Jefferson-Jenkins took up the baton to become a life-long advocate and activist for civil rights and social justice. She is a voice for under-represented populations and served two terms as the President of the League of Women Voters of the United States and Chair of the League of Women Voters Education Fund, the only woman of colour to have ever done so. Retired Ambassador Carlo Krieger served around the world: Brazil, China, Russia; and as Deputy in the Embassies of Washington D.C. and Vienna. His academic passion is social anthropology, and in this conversation we learn about Carlo's knowledge of how Native Americans are discriminated against when it comes to their right to vote. Meghan Dean is the U.S Embassy Luxembourg's spokesperson. She served as a Deputy Spokesperson for European Affairs and at the State Department Operations Center, the Secretary of State's 24-hour crisis management and communications centre in Washington, D.C. Meghan served at the U.S. Embassy in Skopje, North Macedonia and on the State Department's Ukraine Desk. Meghan is a returned Peace Corps Volunteer from Albania and Georgia. She talks about the Electoral College, the complexity of the American elections and that it's not one Federal election but 50 state elections. On the evening of Tuesday 8 October 2024, Dr. Carolyn Jefferson-Jenkins, was in Luxembourg at the behest of Miami University Luxembourg Foundation's inaugural event, supported by the US Embassy in Luxembourg.

Full Text of ReadingsThursday of the Twenty-second Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 434The Saint of the day is Saint Teresa of CalcuttaSaint Teresa of Calcutta's Story Mother Teresa of Calcutta, the tiny woman recognized throughout the world for her work among the poorest of the poor, was beatified October 19, 2003. Among those present were hundreds of Missionaries of Charity, the order she founded in 1950, as a diocesan religious community. Today the congregation also includes contemplative sisters and brothers, and an order of priests. Born to Albanian parents in what is now Skopje, Macedonia, Gonxha (Agnes) Bojaxhiu was the youngest of the three children who survived. For a time, the family lived comfortably, and her father's construction business thrived. But life changed overnight following his unexpected death. During her years in public school, Agnes participated in a Catholic sodality and showed a strong interest in the foreign missions. At age 18, she entered the Loreto Sisters of Dublin. It was 1928 when she said goodbye to her mother for the final time and made her way to a new land and a new life. The following year she was sent to the Loreto novitiate in Darjeeling, India. There she chose the name Teresa and prepared for a life of service. She was assigned to a high school for girls in Calcutta, where she taught history and geography to the daughters of the wealthy. But she could not escape the realities around her—the poverty, the suffering, the overwhelming numbers of destitute people. In 1946, while riding a train to Darjeeling to make a retreat, Sister Teresa heard what she later explained as “a call within a call. The message was clear. I was to leave the convent and help the poor while living among them.” She also heard a call to give up her life with the Sisters of Loreto and instead, to “follow Christ into the slums to serve him among the poorest of the poor.” hbspt.cta.load(465210, '2c4bdf51-357c-46ab-88c4-984923a66037', {"useNewLoader":"true","region":"na1"}); After receiving permission to leave Loreto, establish a new religious community, and undertake her new work, Sister Teresa took a nursing course for several months. She returned to Calcutta, where she lived in the slums and opened a school for poor children. Dressed in a white sari and sandals–the ordinary dress of an Indian woman–she soon began getting to know her neighbors—especially the poor and sick—and getting to know their needs through visits. The work was exhausting, but she was not alone for long. Volunteers who came to join her in the work, some of them former students, became the core of the Missionaries of Charity. Others helped by donating food, clothing, supplies, and the use of buildings. In 1952, the city of Calcutta gave Mother Teresa a former hostel, which became a home for the dying and the destitute. As the order expanded, services were also offered to orphans, abandoned children, alcoholics, the aging, and street people. For the next four decades, Mother Teresa worked tirelessly on behalf of the poor. Her love knew no bounds. Nor did her energy, as she crisscrossed the globe pleading for support and inviting others to see the face of Jesus in the poorest of the poor. In 1979, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. On September 5, 1997, God called her home. Blessed Teresa was canonized by Pope Francis on September 4, 2016. Reflection Mother Teresa's beatification, just over six years after her death, was part of an expedited process put into effect by Pope John Paul II. Like so many others around the world, he found her love for the Eucharist, for prayer, and for the poor a model for all to emulate. Learn more about Mother Teresa!

Last week HALC sounded the alarm over North Macedonia's adherence to the Prespa Agreement, launching a letter and petition to the State Department urging it to remind Skopje that international agreements are binding - not optional - and that there will be consequences. North Macedonia's newly elected leaders have repeatedly referred to their country simply as “Macedonia” rather than the constitutional name “North Macedonia”. Given the renewed attention on this issue, we are re-sharing our discussion with Prof. James Ker-Lindsay from last month where we looked into the mixed signals Skopje is sending about the Prespa agreement, and discussed the broader risks this poses for the region. You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:HALC Questions North Macedonia's Prespa Agreement ComplianceMitsotakis–Beleri: Albania must follow the European acquisTurkey to soon wind down latest operation in northern Iraq, Erdogan says

Le Temps des Gitans, Dom Za Vesnaje, un film dʹEmir Kusturica sorti en 1988, raconte une histoire tragique chez les gitans, chez les Roms dʹex-Yougoslavie. On y voit un jeune homme manipulé par un parrain, un sale type qui fait du trafic dʹenfants en Italie. Mais quand il comprend enfin quʹil a été arnaqué, devenu un homme, un mari, et un père, il est prêt à se venger et à venger toutes les autres victimes. Mais si lʹhistoire est centrée sur ces deux personnages principaux, Perhan, et Ahmed, existent, autour dʹeux, une ribambelle de personnages tous plus foisonnants les uns que les autres : une grand-mère guérisseuse, une sœur malade, un oncle qui ne pense quʹà soutirer de lʹargent à ses proches, et un dindon. Cʹest une communauté rom tout entière qui montrée dans cette comédie dramatique baroque entièrement tournée en romani, la langue des roms avec des comédiens non professionnels, tous gitans. Dans le film, la magie, le rêve, les animaux, les coutumes gitanes émaillent le récit, le tisse de burlesque et de vérité. Basé sur un fait divers sordide, le scénario est finalisé par le journaliste Gordan Mihić et cʹest Emir Kusturica, Palme dʹor 1985 pour Papa est en voyage dʹaffaire qui se charge de le mettre en images. Des images portées par la musique omniprésente de Goran Bregovic. Le film sort dans ce qui était encore la Yougoslavie en 1988, et dans le reste de lʹEurope en 1989. Il plait beaucoup. Notamment en Yougoslavie où plus de 2 millions de personnes le voient dont 700'000 gitans. Le film gagne le prix de la mise en scène en 1989 à Cannes et entre dans la légende du cinéma. Ne tardons pas, direction Skopje et ses bidonvilles gitans, ses chiens, ses vaches, ses poules, ses oies et ses dindons, sur les pas de Perhan, de sa famille, de ses amours et de ses emmerdes.

After decades of negotiations and acrimony, Athens and Skopje signed the Prespa Agreement in 2018 that effectively put an end to the Macedonia name dispute and opened the way for North Macedonia to join NATO and start the process toward EU membership. Since the election win of the VMRO-DPMNE in early May, however, its leadership has taken a nationalist turn that could put this deal at risk.

Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Twenty-second Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 432The Saint of the day is Saint Teresa of CalcuttaSaint Teresa of Calcutta's Story Mother Teresa of Calcutta, the tiny woman recognized throughout the world for her work among the poorest of the poor, was beatified October 19, 2003. Among those present were hundreds of Missionaries of Charity, the order she founded in 1950, as a diocesan religious community. Today the congregation also includes contemplative sisters and brothers, and an order of priests. Born to Albanian parents in what is now Skopje, Macedonia, Gonxha (Agnes) Bojaxhiu was the youngest of the three children who survived. For a time, the family lived comfortably, and her father's construction business thrived. But life changed overnight following his unexpected death. During her years in public school, Agnes participated in a Catholic sodality and showed a strong interest in the foreign missions. At age 18, she entered the Loreto Sisters of Dublin. It was 1928 when she said goodbye to her mother for the final time and made her way to a new land and a new life. The following year she was sent to the Loreto novitiate in Darjeeling, India. There she chose the name Teresa and prepared for a life of service. She was assigned to a high school for girls in Calcutta, where she taught history and geography to the daughters of the wealthy. But she could not escape the realities around her—the poverty, the suffering, the overwhelming numbers of destitute people. In 1946, while riding a train to Darjeeling to make a retreat, Sister Teresa heard what she later explained as “a call within a call. The message was clear. I was to leave the convent and help the poor while living among them.” She also heard a call to give up her life with the Sisters of Loreto and instead, to “follow Christ into the slums to serve him among the poorest of the poor.” After receiving permission to leave Loreto, establish a new religious community, and undertake her new work, Sister Teresa took a nursing course for several months. She returned to Calcutta, where she lived in the slums and opened a school for poor children. Dressed in a white sari and sandals–the ordinary dress of an Indian woman–she soon began getting to know her neighbors—especially the poor and sick—and getting to know their needs through visits. The work was exhausting, but she was not alone for long. Volunteers who came to join her in the work, some of them former students, became the core of the Missionaries of Charity. Others helped by donating food, clothing, supplies, and the use of buildings. In 1952, the city of Calcutta gave Mother Teresa a former hostel, which became a home for the dying and the destitute. As the order expanded, services were also offered to orphans, abandoned children, alcoholics, the aging, and street people. For the next four decades, Mother Teresa worked tirelessly on behalf of the poor. Her love knew no bounds. Nor did her energy, as she crisscrossed the globe pleading for support and inviting others to see the face of Jesus in the poorest of the poor. In 1979, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. On September 5, 1997, God called her home. Blessed Teresa was canonized by Pope Francis on September 4, 2016. Reflection Mother Teresa's beatification, just over six years after her death, was part of an expedited process put into effect by Pope John Paul II. Like so many others around the world, he found her love for the Eucharist, for prayer, and for the poor a model for all to emulate. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Season Two. Episode Seven. Mission For Macedonian Revival. Hosts Dirk and Brooke reconnect with Nikola Galevski after meeting him recently on an EEM trip to North Macedonia.  Nikola Galevski was born and raised in Skopje, Macedonia. Coming from a traditional Orthodox family, his faith was ignited in his youth through the witness of the local Evangelical Church in Skopje and with a special gift of God's Word. These events in his life inspired a life-long mission to share God's love with as many as possible. After finishing a BA in Art History and Archaeology, together with his wife Anet (who died from cancer in 2021), they both pursued master theological and ministry preparation studies at Regent College in Vancouver, Canada, under the mentorship of Dr. Gordon Fee and Dr. Rikki E. Watts. Upon graduation, Anet and Nikola returned to Macedonia in 2005 to lead the Macedonian IFES/IVCF, start their second church plant, and initiate numerous evangelistic, outreach, educational, publishing, and music projects. Nikola and Anet have one daughter, Giselle-Maria Galevska. Apart from being a pastor of Evangelical Church Soulcraft, Nikola Galevski is a university evangelist, and lecturer in biblical studies, preaching, mission, and visual arts in North Macedonia and internationally. His utmost desire is to wholeheartedly love God and love people.  Learn more about Nikola from ⁠⁠scholarleaders.org⁠⁠.
