Across The Balkans: Are the Sharr Mountains Protected but Perishing?

A pristine mountain range in North Macedonia is in danger. Having been declared a protected national park only months ago, the Sharr Mountains don’t seem very protected nowadays.

Across The Balkans, hosted by Nafisa Latic, is TRT World’s programme that focuses specifically on the issues and fault lines shaping Southeast Europe today.
