I'm betting that today's much-trumpeted meeting between the leaders of Serbia and Kosovo won't result in a deal. EU envoy Lajčak seems optimistic, US envoy Escobar less so. What do you reckon?

Hey, @WeTransfer - we need to talk. Your new plans are a slap in the face to those of us who've been paying for the Pro plan for years. Double the charge to keep the same level of service - or 2/3 of current price for premium-mediocre? Not cool.

The vital and painstaking work of @TheICMP is superbly captured in this piece by @guydelauney. Almost 30 years after the war in #Bosnia-#Herzegovina, they remain committed to resolving the thousands of missing persons cases.
