The Ukraine safari
The Ukraine safari
I don't usually write about cultural products from my own country, but I must make an exception for Slovenian filmmaker Miran Zupanic's new documentary Sarajevo Safari, which details one of the most bizarre and pathological episodes of the 1992-96 siege of the Bosnian capital.

Our wild debt party is over
Our wild debt party is over
Gosh, I hate debt. I've been in and out of debt from time to time. When I was younger I took out a car loan for a nice set of wheels that I really couldn't afford. I borrowed money I didn't have to buy a really nice stereo system, too.

Xi Jinping's radioactive friend
Xi Jinping's radioactive friend
Vladimir Putin's ongoing failure in Ukraine has put his strategic alliance with Chinese President Xi Jinping to the test. With Putin growing ever more desperate, Xi must finally realize the scale of the threat that his “friendship without limits” with the Russian president poses to China's economic health, to global stability, and to his own geopolitical ambitions.
