Topic of the issue: Serbia before the general strike 22.January 2025 Jovana Gligorijevic Attempted murder in extended duration They are killing us and while they are killing, they are yelling that someone wants to kill them. And in fact, for all of the above, they are perpetrators, principals, accomplices and helpers. And it is becoming clearer to more and more people. The propaganda bubble in which they have imprisoned people through their disgusting quasi-media is slowly bursting. And only that middle finger emerges from it, the bloody middle finger with which they will gouge out their own eyes
Towards a general strike: Political life 22.January 2025 Slobodan Georgijev Guardians of the opposition in the winter period In a narrowed and devastated political field, opposition parties still fail to emerge. That is why a meeting of representatives of all opposition lists is the least they can do. There are parties that have MPs in the National Assembly plus the Proclamation plus Start-Change. They should all meet in the same place and try to agree on what to do. Nobody in Serbia cares whether someone doesn't like Đilas, Sav or Radomir
Gojko Božović, writer, publisher and one of the initiators of ProGlas 22.January 2025 Nedim Sejdinovic A Serbia worth fighting for The rebellion of young people, students and high school students, introduced a whole series of new elements into social and political life. In the first place, the student revolt renewed hope in Serbia. The students turned on the light and that light cannot be extinguished. That cheerfulness, that liveliness, that triumph of life and new ideas, that freedom from old forms, old and outmoded thinking, old fears and malignant propaganda - that's the breath of freedom that the country longed for, but had neither the luck nor the strength to take. get home
Towards a general strike: Government and education 22.January 2025 Marija L. Jankovic Teachers on the strike Almost no one can list how many educational collectives in Serbia will be on strike at the end of January. Although the authorities boasted at the beginning of the protest that as many as 80 percent of the 1700 schools in Serbia are working fully and 11 percent partially - data from the field says otherwise
Towards a general strike: The situation in the trade unions 22.January 2025 Mila Jovanovic Division and distrust "It is not easy when the Minister of Education and the Prime Minister threaten an inspection, but so far it has turned out every time that the threats created the opposite effect and produced an even bigger rebellion," Aleksandar Markov, former president of the Forum of Belgrade Gymnasiums, told Vreme.
Portrait of a contemporary: Dragan Šutanovac 22.January 2025 Mirjana Nikolić Life is not a policy. The future ambassador of Serbia to the USA was one of the representatives of democratic Serbia, a family man, an eloquent hydropower engineer who knows that quiet water flows down the hill and takes different paths until it is turned into energy. No less important - Dragan Šutanovac is tall, his suit fits him well, and his tracksuit will look good too if the marketing team decides that a picture should be taken in the park when the president comes to America.
Kosovo 22.January 2025 Milica Srejić People whom Serbia forgot On the fifth day since the start of the pre-election campaign for the Kosovo parliamentary elections, Serbian institutions south of the Ibar have been closed. Citizens are faced with a series of unanswered questions. Experience from the north leads them to believe that they will also have to do things in central Serbia. What do citizens who live south of the Ibar say? Finally, whether and what this has to do with the election campaign
"Vreme" investigates: the European drug market 22.January 2025 Ingrid Gerkama, Mark Midel, Nemanja Rujević Balkans work in bulk Balkan drug cartels have extended their tentacles to Rotterdam, Europe's largest port. In the Netherlands, they cooperate with the infamous Moroccan mafia. Some of that can be seen from the indictments and correspondence on the Sky app. However, "Vremen" sources say that this is only the tip of the iceberg, and that Western investigators do not really believe in the cooperation of their Serbian colleagues.
Cases 22.January 2025 Jelena Zoric One call didn't change anything These days, four years have passed since Ivanka Mićić (62) died near Loznica. And only these days did the trial of Đorđe Danojlić really begin, accused of hitting a woman who was walking with a car, leaving her to die by the side of the road and running away. The accused is in the courtroom, but the truth has begun to be buried and drowned among court records, numerous expert reports and analyses. Prosecution experts claim one thing, and defense experts completely different. Legally, the question is now which vehicle hit the woman. As if it is no longer important what the truth is, but whose experts will defend their opinions more strongly. And the opinions of experts in a corrupt and politically burdened society are more susceptible to influences than science... What will prevail
A culture of memory: The 1962 student demonstrations over the assassination of Patrice Lumumba 22.January 2025 Nemanja Kalezić Do you remember Tshombe? During the day, the approach to the Belgian embassy was blocked. Already at 17 p.m., large groups of demonstrators, mostly students, approached the embassy, broke through the cordon of the law enforcement authorities and, after provocations by the Belgian embassy staff, attacked the very building of the diplomatic mission. Only with the arrival of new reinforcements did the forces of order establish control over the disturbances in which more than 80 people were lightly and seriously injured.

exclusive 15.march 2001 Igor Mekina and Svetlana Vasović-Mekina Confession of Mira Marković "I believe that the members of the SPS and JUL, those who are not mentioned in the newspapers and on television as thieves, rich or that they are suspicious and responsible for some other reason - I believe that they are the ones who made an agreement with the new authorities to that government protects their material and other interests, their rather large wealth, and that in return they contribute to the bribery of their yesterday's comrades and personal friends"
Interview - Sanda Rašković-Ivić, Commissioner for Refugees of the Republic of Serbia 15.march 2001 Jelena Grujić We don't want ghettoization "Refugees have been manipulated like no other population in recent times. Perhaps only the mentally ill were manipulated that way in the Soviet Union during Stalin's reign of terror."
The case of the three beaten 15.march 2001 Uroš Komlenović Nothing new in Pozarevac The new authorities shout at the top of their voices that those responsible for the collapse of the state will be tried. Wouldn't it be more logical to rehabilitate the victims first?
Macedonia 15.march 2001 Nenad Lj. Stefanović The collapse of ethnic romanticism In some reflections on the latest events not only in Macedonia but also in the south of Serbia, one hears how the Albanian side is allegedly trying to catch the "last train" for a more comprehensive solution to its own issue and to reach, possibly, a new Dayton by radicalizing the situation on the ground.
Comment There are no regrets after the election. Political parties and organizations that are against the regime of Aleksander Vučić hold everything in their hands. If they are defeated in the elections, whenever they are held, they will have themselves to blame Andrei Ivanji
Overview of the week Veselin Milić hits back Will Veslin Milić be declared a "blockade" in the tabloids? Is his criminal complaint against Marko Kriček a message for Aleksandar Vučić? And, if so, can we expect new dirty laundry cameras from the MUP? Philip Schwarm
komentar Why does Vučić persistently repeat that he will "admit defeat"? President Aleksandar Vučić says again that he will admit defeat and congratulate because the "blockaders" will win. He would thereby drive the rabbit out of the forest, but no one on the other side is obliged to promise Vučić a similar congratulation Nemanja Rujevic
