Vukovar surrendered exactly 30 years ago today. Still the killings and war crimes continued. My photo of Croatian National Guard defending the road out of town (Sept. 1991). International and media interest in what was happening to Vukovar at the time was pitiful.

Having designed & run some (media) projects on Iran - and been there- I’m amazed at sudden experts treating the war as a 90 minute football game - (& too many rooting for the other side). The only thing for sure is the Regime will bleed out - IF unpalatable amnesties are offered.

Chinese property is literally collapsing. Developers are demolishing half-built blocks they can't afford to finish, people who've bought off-plan are defaulting on mortgages, sales are grinding to a halt, the whole financial system is at risk. Couldn't happen to a nicer autocracy

Vandaag 30 jr geleden viel de Oost-Kroatische stad Vukovar na een ruim 80 dagen durende aanval door het Joegoslavische leger (JNA) en Servische milities. Dit mooie stadje a/d Donau werd in 1991 totaal vernield door de aanvallers. Deze beelden wennen nooit.

We should be reminded that many political activists cannot spend time with their families on Mother’s Day. Some of them are behind bars, some are in exile. I hope reunions can come as soon as possible. (This is an old photo of me and my mother) #MothersDay
