82 Years of Truth: The Legacy and Loss of VOA Serbian Service
82 Years of Truth: The Legacy and Loss of VOA Serbian Service For generations, the Voice of America Serbian Service stood as a beacon of truth in the Western Balkans—covering the breakup of Yugoslavia, the wars, and the path toward democracy. Journalists call it a “valuable ally” against misinformation. But now, that ally is gone. Silencing VOA means silencing one of America’s most trusted instruments of truth. #SaveVOA #pressfreedom #short 82 Years of Truth: The Legacy and Loss of VOA Serbian Service

For 82 years, VOA Serbian Service stood for truth in the Balkans — through war, misinformation, and political pressure.

Now it’s silenced. #SaveVOA #PressFreedom

“I don't want to see it [VOA] die this way and I will do whatever is in my power to try to make sure it doesn't die, no matter what may be the personal or professional risks to myself. And I know that there are a number of my colleagues that feel the same way,” said @newsguy.bsky.social . Watch 👇

Ruslan Petrychka is Chief of VOA Ukrainian. His team covered Russia’s war in Ukraine with fact-based reporting, serving as a de facto Washington bureau for Ukrainian media. He explains why millions rely on VOA - and why shutting it down would weaken U.S. leadership and endanger lives. #SaveVOA

We are not the voice of left America. We are not the voice of right America. We are the Voice of America, and our independent journalism should not be outsourced to any outlet aligned to any president's agenda. #savevoa
