The President of the National Movement of Serbia, Miroslav Aleksić, assessed that the arrest of the Acting Director of the Republic Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments, Goran Vasić, is political revenge and part of Vučić's strategy to avoid elections due to a drop in support and popular rebellion.

Due to the suspicion that he falsified the Proposal for making a decision on the termination of the status of cultural property of the General Staff, Organized Crime Prosecutor's Office it was announced Arrest of Goran VasićThis move Miroslav Aleksic sees it as a move made due to an unfulfilled visit Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić donor lunch US President Donald Trump, as if he himself is the answer to Trump.

"That man Goran Vasić didn't do it because he wanted to or because he had an agreement with Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, he was ordered by someone from the top of the government, be it Vucic or Finance Minister Sinisa Mali, but this is now an answer to Trump," Aleksic said on N1 television, Nova reports, and added that Vucic is looking for an "alibi and running away from the election" because "this is the first time" a situation where he is "not sure" that he can win.

"Now the social environment is like this after six months of general popular rebellion, he is not sure that he can win, he is looking for reasons to run away from those elections, his argument will be the election conditions and in this way he admits that there are no conditions for fair and honest elections", explained Aleksić.

He emphasized that he supports the students' demand for extraordinary parliamentary elections and that "only pressure" can lead to the fulfillment of that demand.

"It seems to me that we all together missed a big opportunity to exert stronger pressure for the formation of a transitional government when Prime Minister Miloš Vučević's government fell, now we have no choice but to ask for new elections," Aleksić added.

Aleksić assessed the meeting of the President of the European Council, Antonio Košta, with the opposition as "unpleasant" for Košta, because, as he says, he was faced with "strong arguments" presented by the opposition, about the state in which the country is and the relationship of the European Union towards Vučić.

"In 13 years, it should have been clear to everyone whether these people inherit and want to build European values, or whether it is just a declarative story of the people in power headed by Vučić for the representatives of Europe," concluded Aleksić.

The Dark Vilayet of A. Vučić: Whatever he does, he will regret it

Aleksandar Vučić now has only the old, proven methods of classic dictatorships left, because these modern methods of insanity and poisoning the public are failing. And that, however, goes against his head

Overview of the week

Vučić, the one-man orchestra

Vučić is not defending the state, but himself from the state. With a drum on his back and a guitar in his hands, this man-orchestra performs two or three of the same songs without hearing, with falsifications and falling out of rhythm. His government and politics are like that. In short - dangerous for the environment
