Pobjeda

Pobjeda is a daily print media outlet, first published during World War II as a state-owned media. The media outlet was declared bankrupt in the early 2000s.

The state-owned Pobjeda, which went into liquidation, was bought by the Media Nea d.o.o in November 2014, through which they obtained the right to use Pobjeda’s visual identity.

Under Nova Pobjeda d.o.o. two media outlets are published – the daily newspaper and portal Pobjeda, both owned by the Greek businessman Petros Stathis. Through his companies, Stathis also owns portals CDM and Analitika.
