BBC in Serbian is a part of the World Service, which offers content in 42 languages on the broadcaster's radio, television and digital platforms to an audience of 269 million on a weekly basis.
The editorial staff is led by editor Aleksandra Niksic, who said that the bar has been set high.
"Our content must be made up of original high-quality journalism, based on the editorial guidelines of the BBC. We need to be innovative, both with the ideas and the technology we use. We will have great assistance from our partners in Serbia and the region who will carry our content. Our task is at the same time a challenge and an inspiration: to create space on the media scene where free and impartial journalism will flourish. And we promise that we will do our work supremely well," she said.
According to Niksic, the goal is to offer the international audience stories from Serbia and the region, while the desire is, although conflicts and disagreements remain at the center of attention, to introduce new generations looking forward.
"In a politically and economically sensitive environment such as Serbia, but also the Balkans as a whole, false news and unverified information have entered into the media even before in other parts of the world. The threat to media freedom and the numerous political and economic pressures on journalists are only some of the reasons for this. A big but highly inspirational challenge awaits the BBC in Serbian: our goal is to help restore basic journalistic values to the center of attention. And this challenge can only be won if we are completely committed to the values that the BBC has always cultivated and to our audience," says the BBC editor.
Apart from B92.net, the BBC News in Serbian content is also available on other partner portals - Danas and Naslovi.net in Serbia, as well as Kameleon in BiH and Vijesti in Montenegro.
BBC is not a neutral medium. Its birth was for the sake of British colonialism and the interest of the exploiting empire. If it is criticized, then it is considered as attack of freedom of expression. BBC is spreading what the Western Bloc wants it to spread. While in case of friendly or allied countries, any struggle for independence is portrayed as terrorism. But this is not only true for BBC, it is also true for other channels like CNN, Reuters, AFP etc. In different parts of the world, BBC has been encouraging separatism in the "enemy of the democracy bloc". BBC needs to show that its neutral and not a propaganda arm of Western Bloc. Mudathir, Serbia

B92 can partner with Satan if it likes but they should remember where they reside. If they lean to far to the wrong side they could be finished in less than 12 months.

The BBC is a shadow of its former self. The BBC news website is full of promotion of minority causes (mainly transgender) or telling us how integrated and peaceful Muslims are in the UK.

Its obvious that its time to cease looking at B92 from now on, as I've dealt with the BBC during the bombing of Yugoslavia and and with the way BBC dealt with the biased reporting and fake garbage, Im shocked any news agency would wish to have any association with the British Bullshit Corporation. I sincerely hope that some sanity prevails and the BBC is booted out. Lets hope that B92 don't edit this comment like they did my last one.

Serbia is so unimportant that the UK Foreign & Common Wealth Office has added funding for Serbian (and other) languages. The natives must be trained!

Congratulations! Now the remaining Serbia will soon disintegrate to make way for small democratic and freedom loving countries. Unless, Serbia turns into a satellite of Western Imperialism and become part of anti-Russia ring. Sorry b92 for this comment. I hope you will publish it. Mudathir, Serbia
