Serbia on Sunday Feb. 25, 2024, sent a protest note to Croatia over a statement made by Croatia's foreign minister that Serbia's populist president Aleksandar Vucic is a Russian "satellite" in the Balkans. It was the latest spate between the two neighboring states that have been at odds for most of the time since the bloody breakup of former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. (AP Photo/Darko Vojinovic, File)
