Once a pretty Montenegrin blonde told me that the Montenegrins living on the coast feel closer to their Croatian neighbors than to the Serbs.

Clearly Montenegro needs more democracy.

Hmm.

How's the food, how are the women?

This is great writing, Nicco, and an excellent piece, but one must ask, why are you honest about the mafia underpinnings of the post-yugo regime yet play along with Orban-as-savior in your performative twitter politics? You know that's just as mafia, a worse form of it, in fact.

I've long thought what the world needs is a Magna-Serbia, basically Serbia + everything except Pharisaical Croatians and Slovenes. Yugoslavia was a force for balance and multi-polarity in the coldwar, we need more regional, semi-sovereign powers like that.

Niccolo, I'm a big fan. But explain to me this: why is all the good nationalist turbofolk (involving special forces, tanks, missles, etc.) either Serbian or Bosnian? Where is the good Croatian turbofolk?

Sincerely,

an Italian fan

Thanks for covering this. It does not loom, tho. All was well when I went to Cetinje in September, apart from the verbal attacks on the URA municipal Councillors trying to get to work by a handful of the 'komiti'. It seems that Milo's mini-mes are preparing a big demo because he and his son featured in the Pandora Papers the other day... They're marketing it, this time extremely bizarrely, as a demo in support of the father of the nation? I don't know what the DPS have been smoking lately, but it ain't great.
