Serbian power brokers have played Bulgaria as an antagonist throughout decades of political and ethnic engineering in the wider region, most explicitly in Macedonia.

Now Vucic’s regime starts a narrative of Bulgaria being behind the “color revolution” of its home-grown students movement. This screams desperation.

It has always astonished me how retirement has never been an alternative for authoritarians. Their earlier choices doom them to struggle for the rest of their lives.

    My point exactly. The only certain way for someone to prove they are not a dictator is to retire, typically after two terms as a head of state.
