Serbia is so close to Russia cause of Kosovo split, which they think was due to US intervention. Basically there was a civil war, after that Kosovo declared itself independent from Serbia, and US helped Kosovo. think something like this. annd all other reasons..

[@romaniaplus]

In our darkest times (1980s), in Romania was no food in the stores, no gas for the pathetic cars we had, just few hours of power per day in our houses and apartments, two hours on the only TV channel we had and those were full of cult of personality dedicated to Ceausescu. You had no option to visit other countries being a Romanian, you were isolated in your own country. That was a nightmare and the definition of the purest communism. In those times, our friends from Yugoslavia had almost everything. Food, clothes, chocolate, Pepsi (oh my God!!), bananas, oranges and tons of other goodies. It was a miraculous convention signed between the Serbian and Romanian governs who allowed to the citizens who lived at 50 km from the borders to travel on the "other side" for 50 km few times a year. It was called the little traffic. When my parents asked me what I want for my birthday I simply tried impossible and I asked a vinyl disk of Iron Maiden or Metallica. The only person who could've accomplish the mission was my beloved grandmother who had her house near the Serbian border. She traveled on the other side, and entered in a music store, full of metal long-hair heads who stared at my granny with strange eyes. She asked the person on the counter for an Iron Maiden disk and she received a negative answer. Her words and her appearance had nothing to do together, she was just an old lady from a small village of Romania. A strange silence hit all the metal heads inside the store. Then, with half of the voice she asked about Metallica, and the guys went all crazy, laughing, throwing Serbian words and raising their eyebrows. My granny became their hero in just few seconds. Some of those guys went at their homes and brought a lot of vinyl disks. When my grandmother returned to Timisoara, she delivered the best heavy-metal collection I could ever imagine. I was in heaven!! Steven, this is a definition of the Serbians. They are naturally proud and stubborn people but when you got inside their soul, you'll discover the human nature at its best. Serbians are truly friends!! With a delay of 40 years, I will thank those guys from the bottom of my heart, here and now.

[@visi_inspektor_besevic]

This is the most beautiful story that I've ever read on internet. Not just because I am a Serbian, not just because I am a metal fan. But because of your grandmother. And yes, we in Serbia know how Romanian people suffered under Ceausesku regime.Many people escaped to Serbia over Danube river. My father went to Romania once in 1988 to Arad and Temisoara and after he came back he told us how terrible it was. Dark everywhere ay night, no electricity, only 4 hours a day, no food, no gas...imagine Romania with many oil fileds has no gas. Terrible stories. And than Lepa Brena came to Romania. :D :D

[@JetLagWarriors]

WOW this comment was so great. Thanks for sharing this! We had some comments about how things were great under Ceausescu but the museum we visited really made it seem like things were much better under Tito. But anyway we aren't too political usually on our channel, just relaying our experience at the museum. Thanks for sharing your story though. Very compelling

@@JetLagWarriors Unlike long communist countries,Yugoslavia was open, whoever did not interfere in politics lived normally.There were no major bans on art and travel.Tito was a great hedonist, he brought Hollywood stars of that time and they made Yugoslav films here.Of course, propaganda films were made, but the combination of Hollywood and communism is madness in itself.There is a documentary film: cinema komunisto "that describes the life of that time. My school friend was Romanian and still lives in Belgrade, but most of his family was in Romania.I remember that as children we made packages and helped not only that family but also their neighbors. It may seem to you that Serbs are reserved but they are not. We just don't laugh at everyone, there are no fake smiles and we are very direct.The biggest problem for us is how to be politically correct :P

Canada had a central role in demolition of the building at 3:25. It has nothing with ex-yu war, only with NATO bombing Belgrade with radioactive bombs in 1999 without UN permission and against all international rules. So, that ruin is a memorial of your country's ex government actions. p.s. I had to comment, because sometimes observations, like that in the vid, can cause mis-washing of the history.

As for the sites in Belgrade I could recommend for tourists, those are definitely the districts of Zemun and Belgrade Waterfront. Other than that, if you like nature, you should also check Ada Ciganlija, Košutnjak forest and Topčiderski park. Finally, there is a small mountain near Belgrade (you have a city bus line to there but it would take you an hour) - the Avala mountain. It has a very nice hiking track (not very difficult) and nice monuments and views at the top.

[@ionutpopa5622]

historically, serbia was always a friend of Romania, in all wars. even when the americans ( nr 1 romanian ally) attacked yugoslavia, romania refused to help and even recognize the newly created states. Also, i think they smuggled fuel and food over the danube to help in the war ( or to survive). Some say that americans negociated with russians and had a plan named Yugoslavia plan (to cut the state) that was initially put for Romania but the popular revolution of 89 saved Romania and moved the plan to Yugoslavia. There is a book written by noam chomsky

[@strictlyunreal]

I remember that Romania let NATO bombers through its airspace in 1999 in exchange for membership.

[@boicerdiegio1709]

Ionut Popa, Yes, historically, Romania has helped Serbia as it has helped all the countries around it, and not only. But Serbia was an aggressor against Romania in 1918 and today it has a policy hostile to the Romanians living in Serbia and even to Romania propagating ridiculous historical untruths. Those who do not know history tend to repeat it.

It was likely just a Serbian flag without coat of arms, the flag has colors reversed compared to the Russian one, they are similar but even the color tones are different. Either that or there was a Russian diplomat visiting that day. We don't fly other country's flags otherwise, not even Russian one :). Serbia as well as former Yugoslavia is in the crossroads of East and West, people have similar feelings 50/50... though since 90s most people don't look kindly towards West for all the things that have been done to us. Even so, it usually goes like this, the mind favors West while the heart favors East :).

Only place I've visited in Serbia is Nis. I remember the road to that town....We passed by a village and the image that got stuck in my head, is the smoke that went out the chimney of each house....it didn't go up, it wouldn't dissipate in the air....it would float around the houses, creating a very foggy and ghostly image of the village. I asked my dad about it and he said that the hills sorrounding the area creates a "pot" effect. Then we arrived to Nis and the first person I saw on the streets was an old man with a huge growth on his neck. The air in Nis was unbreathable, the lack of clean air gave me a headache. We would stay in our room with the windows closed. Parts of the town were nice, but other parts were in ruins. I've read a comment here about serbian men and indeed they look quite tall and strong....it must be from all that delicious food, cause I remember the meat and bread....was something like I've never tasted before.

@@JetLagWarriors Luka plays for the Slovenian national team. His father is Serbian though, so he is half Serbian and he speaks the Serbian language and has been known to sing Serbian songs and such. The current NBA MVP Nikola Jokić is fully Serbian though :)

@@stanian2 ...and Melania Trump is Slovenian too...Just saying!!

[@stanian2]

@@divinezebra3748 His father is Slovenian, of Serbian decent. Born in Šempeter pri Gorici near the Italian border. I would say most Slovenes speak Serbian as the language is so similar. Slovenes are actually very good with languages with nearly all speaking at least 2 or 3 depending on their locality.

That bombed building was the military HQ before NATO bombed it back in '99, they say there are still bombs inside that didn't explode, and that it is too risky to even try to do something, so that's why, 22 years later, they still haven't done anything there.

06:05 - Most Slavic women and people are usually like that. They are like a watermelon, bold from the outside but tender from in the inside. Plus, why would you need to fake and be smiling all the time. People tend to look serious and bold from the outside, but this is not the general rule.

I disagree with you that there are not many places to visit in Belgrade. On the contrary, there are many things to do and see in Belgrade, including visiting the museums, parks, walking along the rivers, artistic districts, etc.

[@darkoradulovic938]

Bingo!!!!....yes finally you are spot on ...you can't come in a new city and try to discover everything by yourself in the Age of Internete....you need a local guy/girl to show you around.. ideally a professional tour guide (there are some retired professional tour guide you can hire, cheaply, just to give you tips ....I give you couple, Nikola Tesla Museum, 10 km east from Belgrade Vinca village 10000 years old first human setlement in Europe, few km further on east, same road world famous Traian table, Roman ancient Empire who crossed Danube at that spot (btw Ancient Romans ruled 400 years in Serbia and 19 Roman Empires were actually born in Serbia, few km further east on that Danube track is recently beautiful fully restored medieval Golubac fortress worth visiting ... Serbia is full of history and its not only in Belgrade, actually more in the country side than in Belgrade but you have to do some research on internet....keep googling,,.hahaha...cheers from an envious guy from Australia!!!
