If you are not satisfied with the current government, and yet everything is dark in your city or municipality, then you really should not go to the local elections under these conditions. But if not, rest assured that the next four years will be even worse if you don't vote for change on June 2nd. Then don't complain to anyone
When asked about the resolution on Srebrenica in the United Nations, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Serbia, Marko Đurić, "expects a tough fight until the last moment", as if inviting Serbian fans to breathlessly watch the game on which their future depends. It doesn't matter that it was lost in advance, the heroism and beauty of the game of Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić will be celebrated
After the blessing of the Serbian patriarch Porphyry, who prayed to God in the Church of St. Sava to give him strength and wisdom while fighting the battle against the "anti-Serb" resolution on Srebrenica, Vučić will be able to invoke God's will when the UN General Assembly votes on it. Mile Dodik spilled water after him
It is pointless to say that we were surprised by the death of a man who reached the age of 96, but somehow we started to believe that he is immortal and that, at the very least, he will make it to a hundred. But Ivan Ivanji was always headstrong. He did what he had in this world and left on his own terms
There is silence in front of the "Vladislav Ribnikar" elementary school. Only the patter of the rain can be heard under the umbrella. People greet each other with a slight nod of the head. It seems that every word spoken would release suppressed tears
We can dwell endlessly on what would have been. The political reality, however, is that the idea of a boycott has failed. The worst thing now would be if its supporters undermine the campaign of those who go to the elections, just to prove that they were right. In Belgrade. Because in the rest of Serbia, even the boycotters are not calling for a boycott
The calls of some opposition leaders to boycott and others to go to the elections on June 2 seem confusing to the voters. But actually everything is quite clear. The question is: what now?
Iran's direct attack on Israel is a precedent in the decades-long conflict between the two arch-enemies. Israel has, for now, refrained from a disproportionately murderous response, which is also a precedent. The reason for this is that the Israelis, with the help of the Americans, the British and the French, neutralized 99 percent of Iran's fleet of drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles before they hit their targets.
Iran's direct attack on Israel is a precedent in the decades-long conflict between the two arch-enemies. If Israel refrains from a disproportionately murderous response, that would also set a precedent
And the third round of negotiations between the government and the opposition, this time in the presence of EU and US ambassadors, failed. While waiting to see if the charade of negotiations will continue or not, the countdown to June 2 continues inexorably.
Aleksandar Šapić is campaigning for the Belgrade elections as if he were running for the head of the republic's government, not for the mayor of Belgrade. His mouth is full of Serbia, Kosovo, Orthodoxy, anti-communism, traitors and patriots, family and national values, he only mentions city traffic, sewage and other problems that plague the citizens of Belgrade every day.
If the opposition's claims that an epic theft was committed in the December 17 elections are true, the government will look for the slightest reason for negotiations on election conditions to fail. One way or another
They are arguing about who will be Brnabić instead of Brnabić, that is, the president of the new government. Why, when it doesn't matter
At first authoritative glance at the continuation of the constitutive session of the Assembly of Serbia, it could be said that there was nothing new. But it's not like that. The progressives broadcast a clear threat from it
The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, ruled that the Belgrade elections will not be held on April 28, as he had previously announced, but on June 2. He also postponed the continuation of the constitution of the Assembly of Serbia. The cards are dealt again, the question is who holds what trump cards. And did a completely different game begin
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić postponed the Belgrade elections from April 28 to June 2. The united opposition united with ProGlas recorded a small victory. Now let him prepare for the dirtiest campaign in the history of dirty Serbian election campaigns
The word spread by the opposition representatives that it is certain that the Belgrade elections will be repeated cannot find a positive response in the electorate to which they are addressing. It sounds defeatist and demoralizing
Finally, the final report of the OSCE/ODIHR international observer mission on the elections held in Serbia on December 17 was published. Participants in the internal post-election conflict interpret it diametrically oppositely. However, one conclusion could be drawn: Aleksandar Vučić was given more time
If the Belgrade elections are repeated, the same premise as before the extraordinary elections on December 17 will still apply: Progressives in Belgrade cannot win, but they must not lose. Don't let anyone hope that they will be fair and correct
For the first time since Vučić came to power in 2012, one can speak of a political crisis. The opposition must find a way to inflame it because otherwise Serbia will sink from the phase of autocracy into a form of dictatorship.
For Vučić, the Resolution of the European Parliament on the Serbian elections is the slap in the face that he feared. He knows very well how those, who from the "stability factor" in the eyes of the so-called of the West become a "disruptive factor"
The opposition, committed to the policy of fighting bare legal and media violence with non-violent methods, can only hope that some other wind will begin to blow from Brussels and Washington.
The spectacular actions of the Israeli special forces, the flooding of the tunnels dug by Hamas, the airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, the terrifying "collateral damage", i.e. the Palestinian victims numbering in the tens of thousands, have their legal epilogue before the International Court of Justice, where Israel will defend itself against the lawsuit for genocide, while the conflict spreads across the region
The answer to the old battle cry on the wings of the yellow duck "Whose City is it!?" is as clear as it is tragicomic: Aleksandar Jerković
The leaders of the Western Balkans who participated in the "Growth Plan: Western Balkans and the European Union" meeting in Skopje signed a joint statement that they "realize" the "extreme" importance of cooperation in the region and "joint" integration into the European Union. The EU will pay several billion euros for the implementation of that plan
Members of the European Parliament discussed the elections held in Serbia on December 17. Individuals used the terms "theft" and "outrageous." If nothing else, the contested Serbian national elections have been internationalized
The President came up with an idea, the technical Government expressly supported and recommended it, and let the employers see what will happen - whether they will let the employees continue to celebrate on January 8, or whether they will turn a deaf ear to His word
