[Video] Animal on the border lost his temper, angry had to be taught by netizens

A Serbian citizen named Branko Djuric, known online as Djuro, recently sparked widespread media attention after expressing frustration over mandatory border checks at the Croatia-Bosnia and Herzegovina frontier. The incident occurred during a routine inspection under the new European Union Entry/Exit System (EES), which requires biometric data collection for non-EU nationals entering the Schengen area. Djuro’s public reaction, shared on Facebook, has ignited debate over the system's purpose and its impact on travelers. The EES was introduced last autumn as part of broader EU security measures aimed at tracking individuals crossing borders more effectively. It replaces traditional paper-based entry systems with digital records, capturing fingerprints and facial recognition data. This information is stored centrally, allowing authorities to monitor movements across the bloc. For citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Montenegro, this means additional scrutiny upon entry into the EU, often leading to delays and long queues at border crossings. Djuro criticized the process, comparing it to a form of bureaucratic ritual akin to a musical scale, Do-Re-Mi-šizem, suggesting it felt dehumanizing and unnecessary. His comments were widely circulated across Balkan media outlets such as Jutarnji list in Croatia and Telegraf in Serbia. Some Slovenian outlets also picked up his remarks, though they did not gain universal approval among readers. In response to Djuro’s critique, an anonymous internet user attempted to clarify the rationale behind the EES. They explained that the system was designed to track who enters and exits the EU precisely, preventing abuse of travel documents and ensuring compliance with visa rules. Similar systems have been in place for years in countries like the United States, Australia, China, and the United Kingdom. The user noted that prior to EES, border controls relied heavily on manual stamping of passports, which allowed individuals with dual citizenship to circumvent restrictions by using different passports each time they crossed a border. This method led to inconsistencies, as some border checkpoints failed to verify stamps thoroughly, enabling people to stay longer than permitted under their visas. The EES aims to eliminate these loopholes by creating a centralized database accessible to all Schengen member states. Another user responded to Djuro’s post with a critical perspective, suggesting that much of the blame should fall on those who have historically hindered access to the EU while leaving their populations isolated. The comment highlighted a growing sentiment among some critics that the region’s leaders have contributed to the current situation through policies that limit mobility and integration with Europe. The discussion around Djuro’s experience reflects broader concerns about the balance between security and individual freedoms within the EU. While proponents argue that the EES enhances safety and prevents illegal immigration, opponents see it as an infringement on privacy and a symbol of bureaucratic overreach. These contrasting views underscore the complexity of implementing such a large-scale system and the need for ongoing dialogue between policymakers and the public. As the EES continues to roll out across the Schengen zone, similar incidents involving frustrated travelers are likely to occur. Border officials and governments will face increasing pressure to manage the transition smoothly while addressing legitimate concerns raised by citizens. Meanwhile, Djuro’s case serves as a reminder of the human element behind policy decisions, highlighting how even well-intentioned reforms can provoke strong emotional responses from those directly affected.
