The Beta News Agency recommends that its readers try the new Daily European Service (DES - https://dnevnievropskiservis.rs) as a leading source of current and comprehensive news and analyses on the European Union and Euro-Atlantic connectivity in the region.
The Daily European Service improves on BETA's previous online offer, Euroaktiv.rs. BETA's Euraktiv.rs platform has twice been awarded for investigative journalism. Some ten thousand pieces and analyses on European interconnecting were published on this platform. BETA decided to launch the new Daily European Service after Euractiv.com in Brussels unilaterally broke off our joint business venture after 12 years of cooperation.
Ignoring good business practices and against legal form, Euractiv.com gave no explanation for halting our cooperation after so many years. Euractiv.com enjoys the financial support of the European Commission for a considerable part of its business.
Some time ago, however, Euractiv.com asked BETA to cede use of the Euractiv.rs web address to the Belgrade Wireless Media company. BETA received no response from Wireless Media about whether it had bought the rights to use the Brussels-based company's name and services on the Serbian market from Euractiv.com.
According to reports in the Belgrade press, Wireless Media is owned by Belgrade entrepreneur Igor Zezelj, along with multiple other companies in the media sector. These include the Mondo website, the Kurir daily, Dox TV, etc. Newspaper reports indicate financial arrangements between the companies owned by Zezelj and the state-owned Telekom Srbije, which has contributed to his rising income.
