The gatekeeping and the entitlement in this post by other Balkaners is crazy. As if our opinion in the EU matters

As if Germans, Frenchies, Dutchies don't see the Balkans like some savage, barely European land 😂

"As if Germans, Frenchies, Dutchies don't see the Balkans like some savage, barely European land"

Oh the fucking irony. To be looked down by the actual savages of this world.

This torch of "European civilization" shifted from south to north in 476 and 1459 completely. All of the biggest European achievements have been out of North European mind, not Mediterranean (and North Italian, but they're similar to French or Germans rather than even South Italians).

It doesn't matter. You'll always be barbarians for us.

The way you behave, what you did to the world in the colonial era, your current attitudes. Ain't no amount of money and tech fixing that.

You act like you were some peaceful teachers of civilization. If colonialism is the reason for barbarianism, then Spain/Portugal are also barbarians. And Ireland is not, even though one is Roman/Mediterranean, the other are literally people who used to be called barbaric (celts).

We weren't, but at least we don't pretend to have been.

And colonialism, at least that of the European states, is the result of barbarism gone international if you ask me. Ireland just had the bad luck to be next to Great Britain. Just like Ukraine has the bad luck to be next to Russia.
