On 10 November 2010 this LSEE event, organised in co-operation with the Czech Embassy, brought together a number of leading figures from Serbia to explore the ten years since the overthrow of Slobodan Milošević. The panel members were Ms Sonja Stojanović (Director of the Belgrade Centre for Security Policy, a leading NGO), Zoran Vujić (Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs), Zoran Jeftić (Deputy Minister of Defence) and Bojan Brkić (Deputy Editor in Chief of Radio Television Serbia, the national broadcaster).
The diversity of the panel made it possible to cover a number of aspects of the mixed fortunes of post-Milošević Serbia, including insights into setbacks and breakthroughs in the country’s efforts at European integration, regional cooperation and reconciliation as well as reflections on future challenges. The event attracted a sizeable crowd of students, journalists, representatives of embassies and others resulting in a lively question and answer session.
