Preview 2022: Hybrid peace

One unusual year is behind us, and the number of impressions far exceeds the scope of this review. When we all thought that the corona was on its way out, that we would return to a more or less normal state, war broke out in Ukraine and pushed us into an even bigger, global crisis. Let's rewind, then, like on modern remote controls, this year, maybe some hints of the future will be revealed in the reminder

The election of Aleksandar Šapić as mayor: The end of easy arbitrariness

In the parliamentary system of Serbia, the opposition has a voice again. The game has changed, although the rules have remained the same. If there isn't a massive flyover, progressives are in for a period of discomfort

Russia's troubles over the formation of the Government: Everything revolves around Dacic

After the elections held on April 3, SNS cannot form either the republican or Belgrade government by itself. This is a new unpleasant reality for Aleksandar Vučić, who is not used to depending on coalition partners. Since the introduction of at least some sanctions against Russia seems likely due to the great pressure from the West, this further complicates the situation because Vučić can only count on parties with which he does not want to do business, and not even those with him - if Ivica Dacić does not change your mind

Elections 2022: Why Vučić should stay in the fridge

If ever there was a space to "conduct politics", it is this moment of global change. That is why now, despite everything, it is much more important for the opposition to make common agreements than to whine, whine and pretend to be smart without a political result. Maybe that way he will be able to open up the media space, reduce the insane attacks on everyone who does not think like Vučić, and at least civilize the political and media space in Serbia a little.

Belgrade elections: Repetition at two more polling stations

The Belgrade elections will be repeated on Thursday at two more polling stations - in Zvezdara and in Rakovica. The total number of voters in these places is slightly less than three thousand, so it is unlikely that even this repetition can lead to any changes

Aleksandar Vučić's hit-tweeting: Master of the election

If the Belgrade elections are indeed repeated, it will not be because of any legitimacy or concession to Dragan Đilas, but because of the behind-the-scenes calculations of Aleksandar Vučić, who has proven that he does not care about the legitimacy of anything. By the same logic, it would be better for the opposition parties to prepare just in case for a repeat of the early parliamentary elections held on April 3.

Parliament 2022: Group portrait, tilted right

Aleksandar Vučić also expressed concern about the strengthening of the right in the future Serbian parliament. "Even" three openly right-wing options enter the parliament, but with "only" 35 MPs. However, the real truth is that right-wingers have been sitting in parliament for a long time, both in the government and in the opposition, and that there are far more than 35 of them.

Post-election mathematics: Attacked by the opposition

Even before he went to the meeting with the President of Serbia without an agreement with his partners and their consent, Dragan Đilas was besieged from all sides. In the world of the opposition, he again jumped out and took center stage, but it seems that this time he could be left all alone, without any real support. On the other hand, Đilas shifted the pressure to Vučić, forcing him to break something

Demostat: Dacic can be interesting to the opposition in the next elections

Even without the Socialists, Aleksandar Vučić has a reserve list with which he would form a majority government in the future Parliament, according to Demostat. They also do not rule out the possibility that Ivica Dacic will be considered as the new mayor of Belgrade, nor as a partner of the opposition after the new elections, which will most likely be held soon.

Dragan Đilas: Conversation with Vučić in the interest of citizens and the state

In Serbia, which is drowning in hatred and divisions with no chance of progress, he says that as the president of the Freedom and Justice Party, he is going to talk to the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, to see if he would defend the will of the people of Belgrade who voted for changes. And those who have doubts about what he will say, it seems that they were never worthy of the support he gave them to be the candidates of the Party of Freedom and Justice when others did not believe in them

New convocation of the Assembly: There is no safe game for Vučić anymore

Aleksandar Vučić does not like to depend on only one coalition partner, because this reduces his own blackmail potential. If he decides to resist the demands of the West to turn his back on Putin and let Dodik down the drain, he will try to capture something in the right-wing reservoir of 35 MPs with SPS and SVM. If he decides to cross paths with Moscow under pressure, no matter how crazy it sounds after all, he could, with the whole-hearted encouragement and push of the Americans and Europeans, secretly meet with Djilas.
