Balkan Trust for Democracy (abbreviation: BTD) is a foundation based in Belgrade, Serbia. It was founded in March 2003 by the German Marshall Fund of the United States, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)
Though better known for administering humanitarian aid around the world, USAID has a long history of engaging in intelligence work and meddling in the domestic politics of aid recipients. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, the agency often partnered with the CIA’s now-shuttered Office of Public Safety, a department beset by allegations that it trained foreign police in "terror and torture techniques" and encouraged official brutality, according to a 1976 Government Accountability Office report.
Color me skeptical.
That first article you linked also includes a photo it claims is "part of the agreement between one of the Chinese companies registered in Serbia and Vietnamese worker[s]," yet the agreement is for some reason written in English. I'm calling bullshit.
Literally all media in the region is funded by the government and/or EU/USA. So, can you guess who is going to expose corruption in the government, and who is prohibited from doing that?
yet the agreement is for some reason written in English. I'm calling bullshit.
This is some funny looking English. Besides that, why wouldn't a fake company, that takes away passports from it's workers on arrival, also have parts of the contract in a foreign language? It's not like it stands out from the whole human trafficker vibe... Funny how they're now being accused of the same thing by Indian workers.
It's interesting you skipped the part about imported prison labour building the most expensive highways. Or did I misinterpret the situation when I saw Asian dudes dressed in rags milling about in a fenced camp surrounded by armed guards? Maybe it's just how Chinese workers feel at home, same as not washing from fall to spring.
I was on the fence about whether you were totally full of shit, but this seals it. No other reason you'd be so comically dishonest as to pretend there is no English language contract in your U.S.-funded propaganda article, despite me indicating where I was looking by quoting the caption.
