Defenders of the Constitution - the first Serbian opposition

With the adoption of the Constitution, Prince Miloš suffered a defeat in the fight with the opposition: his absolutism was destroyed, he had to share supreme power with the State Council, an independent judiciary was created, the rights of officials and the private property of citizens were protected, in short - Serbia became a constitutional and legal state.

Vulin's bill on foreign agents would suspend the Constitution

The adoption of the proposed law on a special register of agents of foreign influence would mean the end of Serbia's European integration, Marko Milosavljević from the Youth Initiative for Human Rights told Vreme.

The President of the Republic and I - for the fourth time

Our economic policy, our economy, and the wider public, even the greater part of our academic community, live in the wrong - this word is weak, perhaps it would be more appropriate perverted - the belief that the economy is grabbing us with giant steps with almost astonishing growth rates, which are more than doubled compared to the quite modest real and accurate growth rates

Who is destroying the constitutional order of the Republic of Serbia?

Citizens of the Republic of Serbia, in accordance with the Constitution, have every right not to accept the election results, taking into account all the facts and circumstances of the election process. For this reason, everything they have done so far has absolutely no elements of a criminal offense, possibly individual actions can be classified as a misdemeanor

In the new issue: The state has become a "foreign mercenary"

"The school year is starting, and I, as a citizen, have no real idea of ​​what has been done, or how it will start in the first place? Or, how come it was suddenly interrupted, ie. two weeks shortened? And why did the person who posted the news announce it, saying only 'that's the way it is'? We don't even know what will happen to the Vladislav Ribnikar Elementary School building. Some media reported that children who asked to transfer to another school were not allowed to do so. Is it fake news? If so, who will be held responsible for it? Where are the denials? All the letters sent by the victims, and there were a lot of them in the previous months, are proof that the system does not work."

What does the President of Serbia learn and know?

Legend has it that the head of state is guided by the rule that every year a person must learn three things. He adopted that from Sheikh Muhammad bin Zayed, who addressed him as "my brother Aleksandar" back in 2013, when Vučić was the first deputy prime minister. Thus, Aleksandar Vučić, in later years and until today, regularly informed the public about how he was doing several things at once. Young people call it multitasking, which usually creates a nice feeling of productivity

Europride 2022: Official document is awaited

If we receive a document on the ban from the MUP, we will appeal to them and the Constitutional Court - says the director of Belgrade Pride. On Thursday, everything was agreed in the Government, and on Saturday, Ana Brnabić changed her mind. How does the state think it is defending Serbs from Kosovo if it cannot ensure the safety of Europride participants in the center of Belgrade, asks lawyer Marko Pantić

Referendum and elections: Warning for the government, encouragement for the opposition

The results of the referendum are not the "first blow" to the autocratic government. At best, it is a mild reminder to Vučić that there must be no relaxation. Nevertheless, these 700 people who came out and voted against Vučić, are barely a third of those who would come out to end their misery with a pen and a ballot, but they therefore need a minimum of meaningful opposition articulation

Biljana Đorđević: We should go to the referendum and circle NO

The movement Ne davimo Beograd believes that by moving the election of judges and prosecutors from the Assembly to the High Council of the Judiciary and the High Council of the Prosecution, which is foreseen by the amendments to change the Constitution, which the citizens will vote on in the referendum on January 16, the political discipline of the judiciary would only continue using different methods

Milan Antonijević: We should go to the referendum and circle YES

This, almost one-party parliament, not only needs to "push through" changes to the Constitution in accordance with the EU's expectations, but is perhaps the only one that can actually do it, because it requires a two-thirds majority in the Assembly. Now a unique political momentum has been created to move things from the deadlock. Any delay would mean a disaster for EU integration and wasting many more years of our lives

Sofija Mandić: The proposed amendments to the Constitution increase the influence of politics on the judiciary

In an interview with DW in Serbian, lawyer Sofija Mandić explains that the Venice Commission, contrary to what government representatives claim, wrote that it is "worrying" that six of the eleven members of the council would be practically directly elected by the Assembly. Because the selection of judges and prosecutors is completely transferred to legal councils, and there the people elected by the ruling majority in the Assembly play a crucial role. That is why you should go to the referendum on January 16 and vote against
