Tanjug (Serbian Cyrillic: Танјуг) (Telegrafska agencija nove Jugoslavije, Telegraphic Agency of New Yugoslavia) was founded on November 5, 1943. It is now a Serbian news agency based in Belgrade.
From 1975 to mid-1980s, Tanjug had a leading role in the Non-Aligned News Agencies Pool (NANAP), a collaborating group of news agencies of the Non-Aligned Movement. The Yugoslav professionals helped equipping and training journalists and technicians in other NAM countries, mainly in Africa and South Asia.
Boris Malagurski (Serbian Cyrillic: Борис Малагурски) (born August 11, 1988 in Subotica, SR Serbia, Yugoslavia) is a Serbian-Canadian film director, producer and screenwriter. He is the owner of the Malagurski Cinema production company, based in Vancouver, Canada.
Born to Prof. Dr. Sc. Branislav Malagurski and Slavica Malagurski, Boris grew up in the Northern Serbian town of Subotica. In 2005 he emigrated to Canada and made a documentary film about his move from Serbia called The Canada Project. The film was shown on Serbian National Television, as a part of Mira Adanja-Polak's TV show.
Malagurski's documentary film Kosovo: Can You Imagine? (2009) dealt with the topic of human rights of Serbs in the disputed province of Kosovo. The Pečat Magazine described the film as "An objective, authentic journalistic approach to the issue, as well as brave work on the field, make this documentary an accomplishment envied by any author". The film features several prominent experts regarding the subject of the Balkans, such as Ret. Maj. Gen. Lewis MacKenzie, Fmr. Amb. James Byron Bissett and Prof. Michel Chossudovsky, who help analyze the state in which the disputed province finds itself since declaring secession from Serbia. In realizing this film project, Malagurski received help from Canadian author and journalist Scott Taylor and Princess Linda, from the House of Karađorđević, as well as UNMIK official John Hawthorne and Irish diplomat Mary Walsh, to which the film is dedicated. In December 2009, the documentary had its broadcast premiere on Russia Today, the first all-digital Russian TV network.
