    Prema “izvorima Novosti”, MI6 stoji iza protesta poljoprivrednika u #Srbija. Možda ovo bi moglo da postane zaplet novog uzbudljivog Bond filma. 😉

    I feel incredibly honoured to have received an OBE & am deeply touched by the kind messages from family, friends & colleagues. Nothing of what I did was possible without the support of others, particularly my incredible wife & daughters ❤️. Thank you.
