Serbia ruling party offices set on fire in protests
Fresh clashes erupted between anti-government protesters and riot police across Serbia in the fifth night of unrest in a row, after offices of the the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) were set on fire. Police in Valjevo reportedly used stun grenades and tear gas on protesters after a small group of masked people attacked the empty facilities of the SNS, setting them on fire. There were widespread allegations of violence and police brutality in the capital, Belgrade, and Novi Sad. Serbia's interior ministry has denied these allegations. It comes as Russia pledged to shore up the beleaguered pro-Moscow President Aleksandar Vučić, who leads the SNS, saying it would not "remain unresponsive". The protests were initially triggered by a railway station collapse in Novi Sad in November last year, with Serbians demanding an early election and the end to President Aleksander Vučić's 12-year reign. While anti-corruption demonstrations have drawn in hundreds of thousands of protestors, they had been largely peaceful until Wednesday's clash, when pro-government loyalists staged counter-demonstrations. On Saturday night, riot police were again deployed in a number of cities including Belgrade as people took part in demonstrations to demand early elections. Offices and flags representing Vučić's SNS party had been a focus of the protesters' anger. Protesters also smashed the windows of the headquarters of the Serbian Radical Party, a coalition partner of the ruling SNS. In the past week, injuries have been reported at protests across the country and unverified video has circulated on social media of police beating a man in Valjevo. Michael O'Flaherty, the Council of Europe's Commissioner for Human Rights, raised concern on Friday over the "police's disproportionate force" in Serbia, urging authorities to "end arbitrary arrests and de-escalate the situation". The man who remade Serbia Vučić responded to Saturday's developments on Instagram, writing that "violence is an expression of total weakness" and promising to "punish the bullies." He has repeatedly rejected calls for early elections and denounced the demonstrations as part of a foreign plot to overthrow him. Russia's Foreign Ministry has offered their support to the pro-Moscow right-wing president. In a statement the ministry said that "we cannot remain unresponsive to what is happening in brotherly Serbia." The statement said that police were "using lawful methods and means to contain the violent mobs" and that "public order, security, and human lives" were at risk. Almost daily protests have gripped Serbia since November, after the collapse of the Novi Sad railway station roof that killed 16 people. The tragedy became a symbol of entrenched corruption in the Balkan country, with initial calls for transparent probes growing into demands for early elections. At their peak, the protests drew hundreds of thousands on to the streets.

At the Alaska Summit, an Unlikely Local Dish Gets a Cameo
In the end, the high-stakes summit meeting of Presidents Trump and Vladimir V. Putin in Anchorage proved notably short on specifics. But one tiny detail caught the eye of many Alaskans: a lunch menu featuring a humble, nostalgic local dish called halibut Olympia. 'It has the vibe of being homey and comforting and mildly retro, but palatable,' said Jeremy Pataky, an editor and co-publisher of Edible Alaska magazine. 'I would not characterize it as haute cuisine. To see that on the menu for an extremely high-level state dinner felt a bit surprising.' Images of the menu were published Saturday by National Public Radio, which said it was among documents that appeared to have been created by the American staff and accidentally left on a hotel printer. The menu included a green salad, a 'duet' of filet mignon and halibut Olympia, and crème brûlée. Sadly, halibut Olympia did not get its Mount Olympus moment. The summit ended early, and lunch was canceled. But its appearance on the menu prompted some head-scratching. 'In our culinary Venn diagram of what's possible to harvest at sea between Alaska and Russia, I mean certainly we have halibut, so there's that,' Mr. Pataky said. Though the seafood dish is eaten elsewhere and possibly named for a town in Washington State, Alaskans feel a keen sense of ownership about it, and there are even regional variations. In general, it is prepared with fish generously covered in a mayonnaise-based sauce, sprinkled with cracker crumbs and baked atop a bed of sautéed onions. Versions of it have appeared in the state's community cookbooks from at least as far back as the late 1950s, many calling specifically for Best Foods mayonnaise. Some who grew up in Alaska have negative memories of the once-common weeknight dish, comparing it to tuna casserole. 'Freezer-burned, squeaky halibut, coated in mayonnaise and bread crumbs and sometimes bacon,' recalled the chef Beau Schooler, of In Bocca al Lupo in Juneau. At the close of the last century in Alaska, halibut were large and abundant, often caught by sport fishermen, portioned, frozen and served in regular rotation over the winter until people grew tired of them. In recent decades, Alaskans' attitudes toward the fish have changed. Halibut have grown smaller on average, less plentiful and much more expensive, at times costing up to $40 a pound. With that shift, new takes on Olympia have emerged on restaurant menus. Mr. Schooler makes a version with salt-brined fresh fish topped with a sauce made with mayonnaise, crème fraîche and Dijon mustard, and sprinkled with buttery, crumbled Ritz crackers. He bakes it on top of a soubise of onions and cream. 'I think there's a soft spot for it because of, you know, you eat it when you're over at your friend's house or family get-togethers,' he said.
