In this video, we’re going to take a look at the ruling in France and explain why, while it might be good news for Le Pen personally, it is actually probably bad news for the National Rally and thus the French right.

First of all, there is no such a country called "Kosovo". It's a terroristic fake "state". Kosovo and Metohija was, is and always will be a heart of Serbia.
Bosnia and Herzegovina is not a state, it's a protectorate.
And 3rd, you are missing Serbian emblems on Serbian and Montenegrian flags.

Its the corruption that permiates the Balcans as I had nice talk with a European volunteer program participant from Serbia named Branko. Its the pocketing of public money and also the ethnicity, teritorial and relegious problems of post Yugoslavia collapse. Its mostly about transparency of money and economic, that is flash back to Greece problem with nontransperency to EU. Beside the human rights, and other social problems.

Absolutely, and for example, the Serbians should have never betrayed their man Karodic – pushing him to the Hague.
He had merely carried out the wishes of the Serbian people.
And all they got was being bombed.
How can you then join an organisation that wanted to bomb you.?
