Genuinely curious, why is everyone walking backwards at the ~7 second mark? Is that part reversed for some reason or is this slop?

Likely reversed because whoever edited these clips together wanted the camera to be moving consistently forward. If they didn't reverse the middle clip it would give the impression that the camera was moving forward, then backward, then forward again. Editor probably figured most viewers would likely focus their attention on the waving flag and not notice the backwards walking. I didn't notice until I saw your comment and rewatched the clip!

Edit: but then there's a backwards camera move at the end, so now I'm questioning my own theory...

Sounds like no stopping this as long as the current leadership is in power. Housing will be taken over as rentals. Businesses will be taken over by expats. Locals gotta make tourists feel REALLY unwelcome.

IDK, he backed off from the General Staff HQ in Belgrade when people came out. He's likely to bail from this one too if the protests persist.

That’s good news
