Global news is my weekly newscast for the MultiKulti radio of CID association (Center for intercultural dialogue). I contribute to the radio of Kumanovo from Prilep, where I’m doing the Evs project “The missing ingredient”.
The headlines of the news from 22 to 28 July:

– Iraq. About fifty people were killed in different parts of the country by terrorist attacks
– Bulgaria. Protesters surrounded the Parliament, blockading more than one hundred politicians, journalists and staff
