The future Minister of Education, Dejan Vuk Stanković, left the assembly hall with the help of security guards, and the emergency services also responded.
Healthy Serbia MP Miloljub Albijanić spoke in the National Assembly of Serbia strongly criticizing the current government, with the message that he owes nothing to either Aleksandar Vučić or Milan Stamatović. Albijanić pointed out that the government, instead of dialogue, used a sound cannon against citizens during the March 15 protest, which, he says, was a fight against injustice - not against the state. After this speech, the Healthy Serbia party distanced itself from Albjanić's claims

The lights in front of the National Assembly were dimmed due to the unrest that broke out
Although some faculties have announced that Slavia will replace the Assembly, the correct information is that the plateau at the Assembly of Serbia remains a gathering place for students and citizens.
Due to security reasons, the parliament building will be closed until March 17, which practically means that the resignation of Miloš Vučević, which was submitted on January 28, will not be accepted, so the current composition of the Government of Serbia will continue to work at full capacity during the weekend.
The Serbian Parliament is debating a number of important laws, including the agreement with the US on energy cooperation and amendments to the Law on Free Access to Information
According to a document that appeared on social networks, the protest scheduled for March 15 in Belgrade includes mass blockades, a central meeting in front of the Serbian Parliament and the symbolic action "The Biggest Noise in Serbia". It is also planned to introduce a general strike from March 17 to 19. However, the students emphasize that this document is not final and that the official plan is still being discussed
The Parliament of Serbia adopted a law that enables subsidizing loans for the purchase of real estate for young people aged 20 to 35
The opposition did not boycott the parliament (except DS), but it did not block it either. There are many reasons, but now it is as it is. Obviously, the opposition is not able to make a common agreement and strategy, and then work according to some plan. Although it seemed that the event of Tuesday, March 4 was actually a continuation of what the citizens call "pumping", there is no hint that after this "parliamentary raid" that earned them a reputation as thugs (which is neither crucial nor that important), any other action will follow. It was known even before this that the parliament is a front, like all other institutions. It is not yet clear how that can change
This year's first regular session of the Assembly of Serbia continued, but without the participation of the majority of opposition MPs who announced an agreement on a technical government

"During the meeting in Niš, there were no more than 60 people in 33.000 streets around for a single second, of which 21.000 - 22.000 came from outside," said Vučić.
"Such incidents disrupt democratic processes, disrupt the work of institutions and create tension among citizens," said the Minister of the Interior, Ivica Dacic.
MPs Biljana Đorđević and Đorđe Pavićević explain to Vreme what happened in the Serbian Parliament since the morning of March 4 and why they threw smoke bombs
The Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office said in connection with the riots in the Parliament of Serbia that parliamentary immunity does not protect against criminal prosecution for the commission of criminal acts, which, according to the announcement, also includes throwing a smoke bomb in the parliament hall.
After the adoption of the agenda, the MPs got into a fight, and then torches and smoke bombs were thrown. The assembly hall is filled with smoke. The President of the Assembly Ana Brnabić, despite the almost impossible working conditions, decided to continue the session. Around 14 p.m., new incidents broke out, smoke bombs were thrown again, and Radomir Lazović activated the fire extinguisher.
While the stormy session of the parliament continues, citizens in front of the building of the Serbian Parliament
In the balance of power in the National Assembly, whether everything in Serbia is normal or not, the opposition won this time - with smoke bombs and torches
