Food & Euro Boycott in Croatia & Balkans

With #HaloInspector Croatian consumer initiative....

Protests Spread Across the Balkans - February 15, 2025

A boycott of major retail chains in Croatia has led to an estimated loss of 80 million euros, according to protesters.

The boycott, which originated in Croatia, has gained significant momentum in other countries within the Western #Balkans, including #Bulgaria and #Romania. Populist leaders have also embraced the issue, using it to rally support for their causes.

The movement began after a call from the Croatian consumer initiative “Halo Inspector” on January 24, urging people to stop #shopping at large #supermarkets to protest against rising food prices. The appeal quickly gained traction through #social #media, with many #Croatian citizens joining the #protest. The prices of everyday items in Croatia have soared, with food inflation reaching 5.4% in January alone, a significant increase from 4.5% in December. This has led to widespread frustration, as #inflation rates have been on the rise for months.

One of the main reasons behind the protest is the stark price difference between Croatia and other #European countries. For instance, the price of a 1 kg jar of Nutella in Croatia is 9.49 euros, compared to a third lower in Germany. Similarly, a packet of butter in Croatia costs 2.80 euros, while in Germany, with higher wages and a more prosperous economy, the price drops to 2.25 euros during sales. Croatians have pointed out that prices are significantly cheaper abroad, with a recent study confirming that food spending in Croatia is disproportionately high when compared to the rest of Europe.

The call for a boycott has spread beyond# Croatia. In #Bulgaria, a political party in power has proposed a bill to limit the prices of #basic food items, citing concerns over foreign companies profiting off citizens while sending revenue abroad.

#Romania has also seen calls for a boycott, with the populist presidential candidate Calin Georgescu urging citizens to reject foreign suppliers. This movement has led to some results, such as #Carrefour reducing prices on 1,500 products by up to 25%.

#Serbia, #BosniaHerzegovina, #NorthMacedonia, and #Montenegro (#Balkans) have also heard calls for boycotts, with Prime Minister Milojko Spajic of Montenegro expressing personal support for the protests.

When Balkanians want to say that they're not naive and that you can't fool them, they say: "Nisam ja veslo sisala", which means "I haven't sucked an oar". But if someone has already fooled them once, they might say "Možda jesam sisala veslo, ali nisam progutala čamac" - "Perhaps I have sucked an oar, but I haven't swallowed a boat" #croatian #serbian #bosnian #bcms #language #lesson

At home, this summer, a nice circumpolar above a church.

Ok, due to huge success and additional info found, I extended table to cover more Slavic month names. It is also perfect example why our languages are not very mutually intelligible: same words often have shifted meaning.

EN = UA [romanized] = CZ = HR = PL

January=січень[siczen|sičeň]👈= leden=siječanj👈= styczeń👈
February=лютий[liutiy|ljutij]👈=únor=veljača=luty👈
March=березень[berezeň]👈=březen👈=ožujak=marzec 🏛️
April=квітень[kviteň]👈=duben=travanj🤔 = kwiecień👈
May=травень[traveň]🤔=květen🤔(máj 🏛️)=svibanj=maj 🏛️

Notes:
-lipaň/lipiec ~ červen/červenec? 🤔
-kolovoz sounds cool in Czech :masto_wink:
-studeni is very intelligible, but well, entire winter is "studená", "studené období" :-)
-rujan is also Czech name for peninsula on German coast of Baltic sea (Rügen), historically inhabited by Slavic tribes, but may be close to Czech říjen? (+shift by one month again? who is right? I had thought about "říjen" month maybe related to "Rujána" island before...)
-Croats got years and hours all wrong! Those relaxed southern Mediterranians :masto_wink: (but yes, it seems related to "god" for "year" is same with Russian)

Mist in North Velebit, Croatia. North Velebit National Park is the newest park in Croatia. The area was chosen thanks to its particular geology and the richness of its biodiversity. I took this photo during a photo trip. Croatia is a small country but very, very beautiful. It's a pristine place with incredible nature still preserve.

How I did this photo ? Canon 5D Mark IV 400 mm f5,6 1/1000e f9 Iso 50. No filter. High Key.

Brouillard dans le Velebit du Nord, Croatie. Le parc national du Velebit du Nord est le plus récent de Croatie. La zone a été choisie en raison de sa géologie particulière et de la richesse de sa biodiversité. J'ai pris cette photo lors d'un voyage photo. La Croatie est un petit pays mais très, très beau. C'est un endroit vierge avec une nature incroyable encore préservée.

The Visovac Monastery is a Franciscan (Roman Catholic) monastery located on a tiny islet in Visovac Lake inside Krka National Park. It was founded in the 14th century, and the complex was expanded in 1445. It is one of Croatia’s most important historical, cultural, and religious centres. I recommend to visit it if you travel to Croatia !

How I took this photo ? Mavic Pro drone 28 mm 1/250e f10 Iso 200

Le monastère de Visovac est un monastère franciscain (catholique romain) situé sur un petit îlot du lac de Visovac, dans le parc national de Krka. Il a été fondé au XIVe siècle et le complexe a été agrandi en 1445. C'est l'un des centres historiques, culturels et religieux les plus importants de Croatie.
