The election of Christopher Hill blocked

What all US diplomats have in common, Harriette, is that they all work for the CIA.

That the US is back to the Balkans, is not a good thing. Perhaps they can also send Zimmerman and Albright so the project of cleansing Serbs of their ancestral lands can be completed. Oh wait, the first one is dead and the other almost. But you know, their spirit must still be alive considering that Biden -who is a Serbophobe and who was very instrumental in the bombing of FR of Yugoslavia and basically all US military interventions- sends these people
Expect more US meddling in the EU's backyard. That is also the EU's own fault.

Eat your heart out sj, your constant babbling that the US has lost interest in the Western Balkans, has put egg on your face once again, Ha, Ha.

The US has one of the most capable of diplomatic corps, the reason being is the diplomats in the US are chosen by merit. This is not so in most of the world where cronyism is the most common method of determining political appointments. One need only look at Serbia as a glaring example of where cronyism is employed, no pun intended.

I got a good laugh today with the comment that US diplomats are “chosen by merit”. It’s more like patronage appointments , nothing more, nothing less. An old boys club where they rotate with different postings, call it a retirement package. They are essentially spies and there is no love loss of Christopher Hill in Serbia or Nicholas Burns in Greece for that matter. If you think they are hired for their “expertise” you only need to look at Biden who was chairmen of the foreign relations committee and clashed with a real expert senator George Voinovic who is an American Serb and Croat. The pundits talking point is that Biden has never got one foreign policy decision right most recently Afghanistan , they may be right.

Harriet I have read many funny commentary on B92 but yours tops it so far. The US choses its diplomats on merit ha, ha, ha. Obviously dear you have never worked in modern day government let alone in a political party.
Anthony Blinken, Victoria Nuland are two of the most high profile functionaries and both are incompetents par excellence. However, both are party members. Reminds me of the Communist system LOL. There are plenty more so let me know if you need more names.
Terry K. I have never said anything like that. However, what do you think Christopher Hill is going to do? Nothing at all. Watch and learn lad. The Americans live in a parallel universe where its constantly the 1990s and they think they still rule. Hate to burst you bubble, they don’t ha,ha.
Imagine the US had to drag out of retirement Hill so he could “fix” the Balkans opps sorry western Balkans ha,ha,. Hill will be as successful as his predecessors ha,ha.

You guys are obsessed with my friend sj here and if I were sj I would be really flattered. But seriously when has sj claimed that the US of piss and wind has lost interest in the balkans???? Sj and myself Iskander have always claimed a different very different thing and that is that the more interest the US put in a region the more that particular region will slip away towards greener pastures say Russia or China for example. See Afganistan.

I would be flattered if the opposition was of some calibre, but these are low level operatives that have read/heard something then put their own spin which is usually wrong.
I have never said the US lost interest in the Balkans because they have not, but what I have been saying is that they are no longer in control. They think it’s still the 1990s. Washington is full of these people that live in fantasyland just like they talk of defeating Russia by limited use of nuclear weapons which is utter stupidity. This talk was around back in the late 1970s until it was proven wrong.
The region has already slipped through their fingers it’s just that the US don’t realise it yet. The US is no longer in Central Asia, its about to leave Iraq and Syria. In Syria the US is constantly being bombed by suicide drones. Step by step they are being pushed out but the Albos think they are going to protect them. As a Saudi diplomat said; you don’t know which is worse, being US friend or its enemy. I prefer enemy.

Yeah Jimmy cracked corn,

That is because Europe still lives under the jackboot of the US. They are vassal states and the US knows very well how to divide Europe. Also observe the UK. Ever since Brexit they have become very active politically and militarily on the continent. It is their way of staying relevant in Europe.
I wouldn't be so keen to have US involved in Europe. They wouldn't hesitate to turn the continent is a smoking pile of rubble in order to maintain their global dominance.

We have no choice - because the US political establishment, in particular the Department of State is the enemy of their own people (us, if I wear my American hat).
(Ataman, 31 October 2021 15:12)

Your spot in. The US Government is the enemy of its own people and if that is the case why anyone else in their right mind would think they would be treated better is beyond my comprehension. As said I before many times, a country looks after its people, but an empire only after its corporations.
You only have to read up on the British Empire and the East India Company.

Joe A :
The EU welcomes all US “meddling”. Apparently, you are new to the game, since you seem to be unfamiliar with the way things work in international diplomacy. The EU has always followed the lead of the US and is relived to have their assistance. You are going to see a lot more involvement of the US in Europe, so pay attention as you may learn something.

Jimmy cracked corn, such a beautiful name. Just to put things in a clear perspective, only an idiot doesn't understand that there is nothing more that undermined the EU and destroyed Europe as a whole than America's wars in Europe's backyard and neighborhood, Middle Eastern countries. Europe will never again recover from the consequences of those wars and biblical exodus of those populations. Do their politicians protest? No, too afraid of America. They know like everybody knows and like the President of Albania recently said that americans can easily kill them or find a way to oust them for life.

And now seriously Jimmy, Harriet and Terry. Are we talking about the same America that failed miserably against some rebels in mules in Afganistan? Seriously are we talking about the same America whose only savages - white americans, attacked Capitol Hill and the image of the average barbaric white American travelled the world and will be here to stay forever? Trump's America IS the real America, Dems just are good at hiding it under their pants. And Biden is not even hiding it anymore as he's following Trump's policies in everything. Be aware Americans, the world is watching you.

Sweetie head out of arse and perhaps you might learn something. I know you’re a backward Albo trying to look progressive but it’s not working.
That is exactly how the western media refer to these pilotless drones which carry explosives and are guided to target the US base in Syria near the Jordanian border. The closest word is kamikaze, but these were Japanese WW2 pilots that flew their aircraft into US ships.
Will my work ever be completed in trying to bring you and your ignoramuses into the 21 century?

sj, being critical of the US foreign policy doesn't mean being an enemy. In fact these US guys should thank us, because all we do is offering free advise for them on how the rest of the world perceives the only "superpower". It would be easier for us not to conform to the official stupidity that reigns in our countries where the US is lauded in blind way as was the Ussr or China yesterday. There are some things good about amerucan guys for example I liked for real the fact that US solders didn't abandon their service dogs in Afganistan and brought them back home. But these guys need to understand that the world is waking up. The Onion's authors for example seem to have understood.

"In Syria the US is constantly being bombed by suicide drones."
suicide drones? drones that kill themselves? dear me sj, you really are beyond saving
