The article discusses the debate between Serbia and Croatia over the cultural and ethnic heritage of Nikola Tesla, as Croatia plans to feature Tesla on its euro coins. Both nations claim Tesla as their own, with Croatia citing his birthplace in Smiljan (now Croatia) and Serbia highlighting his Serb ethnicity and Orthodox faith. The dispute has involved political leaders from both countries, with Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković making public statements. The article also covers Tesla's life, his contributions to science and technology, and his posthumous recognition. It touches on the destruction of Tesla's birthplace during the Croatian War of Independence and the subsequent efforts to honor him in both countries. The piece concludes with reflections on Tesla's own views of his identity and the potential for his legacy to foster peace and cooperation in the Balkans.

Croatian Doctors Abroad: 'Leaving is a Rational Decision'

Croatian
| Emigration
The Croatian healthcare system is facing a critical loss of medical professionals, with 525 doctors having left the country in three and a half years. This exodus is attributed to the search for better working conditions, respect for labor, and a decent life commensurate with the effort invested in education. Doctors like Senka Baranović and Marko Lukić share their positive experiences working in Scotland and the UK, highlighting better work-life balance, respect, and opportunities for professional development. The Croatian Medical Chamber warns that the government's inaction could lead to an irreversible decline in healthcare quality. While there is a longing for home, the decision to leave is described as rational rather than emotional, with the hope that future government concern might change this trend.

On the 30th anniversary of Slovenia's independence, anti-government protests filled Prešeren Square in Ljubljana, driven by resentment towards Prime Minister Janez Janša's administration, which is seen as corrupt and undemocratic. Protesters, led by Jaša Jenull and Tea Jarc, demand Janša's resignation and early elections, accusing the government of betraying the people's will by forming a coalition with right-wing parties. The protests, which have been ongoing weekly since March 2020, contrast sharply with the official independence celebrations attended by right-wing leaders from neighboring countries.

| Far-right Politics
Journalists in Croatia are under threat from the far-right Homeland Movement party, which has formed a coalition with Prime Minister Andrej Plenković's center-right party. The Homeland Movement aims to suppress independent media, particularly targeting the investigative outlet Novosti. The Croatian Journalists’ Association and the European Federation of Journalists have condemned these actions, warning of a potential violation of the rule of law. The situation poses a challenge for Plenković, who is considered for a significant EU role, as it could undermine Croatia's media freedom.

Balkans Unlikely to Follow Hungary’s Migrant Vote

The Hungarian referendum on EU migrant quotas failed to reach the necessary threshold, but Prime Minister Viktor Orban plans to amend the constitution to validate the results. Experts believe that Balkan EU states are unlikely to follow Hungary's path, though there is concern about a potential rise in nationalist rhetoric. Croatia's new government, led by Andrej Plenkovic, is expected to support EU policies. Bulgaria and Romania also oppose holding similar referendums, with leaders advocating for European solidarity. Serbia, though not an EU member, is affected by Hungary's policies due to its ethnic Hungarian population. The article highlights the broader implications of Hungary's stance on migration for the region.

Croatia: “Anti-leaks” legislation and new media law proposal spell trouble for journalists

EIN News

English
| Journalism
The Croatian government is proposing new legislation to criminalize unauthorized leaks from criminal proceedings, which has sparked significant backlash from journalists and legal experts who argue it will stifle journalistic freedom and deter potential sources. The proposed law, known as 'Lex A.P.', has been criticized for lacking protective clauses for journalists and potentially allowing the seizure of their communication tools. Additionally, a new media law draft, which includes controversial measures such as creating a registry of journalists and requiring them to reveal sources, has been put on hold. These legislative changes come as Croatia approaches a 'super election' year in 2024, with high stakes for the country's political landscape.
