GREECE: Ask for Rights, Get Acid in the Face ATHENS, Jan 5 (IPS) - Around midnight Dec. 22, Decheva Elena Kuneva, a
Bulgarian living in Greece since 2001, finished her shift and
made her way home. For four years she had worked as a cleaner in
the city railways, as employee of a company contracted by the

EUROPE: Czech Presidency Promises Controversy BUDAPEST, Jan 5 (IPS) - The rotating EU presidency has been taken over for

ROMANIA: Grand Coalitions, Little Hope BUCHAREST, Dec 30 (IPS) - The new year will bring 'grand coalitions'
in government in both Romania and Bulgaria. In spite of
politicians' claims that a new union between left and right
in both countries aims "to safeguard the best interests of
the people" in times of crisis, the new coalitions are more
likely another sign that decision-makers pursue self-interest
above all.
ECONOMY-BALKANS: The Old Ways May Be Recession-Proof BELGRADE, Dec 30 (IPS) - Two things Serbs never forget to pack when visiting

body cream has long held its own against more upmarket brands.

Studentski Grad (Student City) in Sofia has brought to the fore
the chaotic and insecure living conditions of tens of thousands
of students housed in the quarters.
BALKANS: EU Now Appears Further Away BELGRADE, Dec 26 (IPS) - EU membership remains the declared goal of many of
the countries carved out of former Yugoslavia, but recent
developments have made that goal more distant than before.
ECONOMY: Today, Santa Is the Saviour LONDON, Dec 24 (IPS) - This time, more than in years before, Christmas is
so much more about Santa Claus than about Jesus Christ. Santa has
after all, the power to move markets in ways that poor Jesus
never contemplated.
EUROPE: 'Double Standards on Trade' BRUSSELS, Dec 22 (IPS) - Double standards are being applied in the way that
the European Union awards trade preferences to poor countries, an
African exporters grouping has alleged.

preparing for Christmas: they squabble about fish.

market economics since the collapse of state socialism is facing
new socio-economic and political challenges.
EUROPE: Swap Aid for Fewer Migrants, the French Way BRUSSELS, Dec 18 (IPS) - Should the amount of aid that African countries
receive from Europe be linked to their efforts to prevent their
nationals moving to this continent?

strangely empty. Only some spooky figures appear here and there,
police in civilian clothes, photojournalists looking for telling
pictures.
