At the beginning of October, 111 years since the famous Kumanovo battle, new details about the famous Roma trumpeter Amet Ametovich

At the beginning of October of the current year, 111 years have passed since the famous "Battle of Kumanovo". A significant contribution to the unfolding of this legendary battle against the Turkish Ottomans was made by the military trumpeter Amet Ametović, a Roma from Leskovac, who deceived the enemies of the Serbian army by playing the signal for retreat and the signal for the attack to the Serbian army...

However, historians who later covered this battle made a careless mistake: that it was Ahmed Amedović (and not properly Amet Ametović). His descendants even today, among whom is Vladimir - Vlada Amzić, editor at the House of Roma Culture in Leskovac, beat the bull that that the mistake is corrected, and that at least one street in Leskovac bears the name...

Column by Nadir Redzepi: Romani Integration Efforts in Macedonia - Optimism, Pessimism, and Realism

Last week we witnessed a series of significant events in Macedonia, all centered around the theme of Romani integration. These events included the Western Balkans Ministerial Conference on Roma-Related Policies, a consultation meeting between the Council of Europe (CoE) and Roma civil society organizations, and the official launch of Phase 3 of the Roma Integration project. Additionally, the old and new leadership of the European Roma Foundation embarked on a field visit. These gatherings offered a glimpse into the state of Roma affairs in Macedonia and the broader European context. In assessing the outcomes of these events, we find ourselves at a crossroads between optimism, pessimism, and realism. Each scenario paints a unique picture of the challenges and opportunities facing Romani integration. The optimistic scenario sees a harmonious continuation of domestic and international stakeholders' efforts to advance Romani integration. It envisions concrete progress, meaningful dialogue, and the genuine inclusion of...
