Two comments attracted the most attention: March from Serbia, and Rio Tinto and Lozničke novosti. You are working against your country and your people. You are worse than Rio Tinto, they are foreigners”. The second comment that was made was much more direct: “Does anyone know where the offices are so that a visit can be organized?”
