Philosopher and professor Boris Bratina, who has been proposed for the new minister of information, points out that he was caught off guard by the news. When asked about the plans, he says that he is surprised by the appointment, and that he has yet to remember his views on the media - but he expresses the hope that he will "do well".
Boris Bratina he was proposed for the new Minister of Information and Telecommunications in the Government of Serbia, and when asked by the Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) what are his plans and first steps after taking office, he said that the proposal to be a minister was a surprise for him and that it was too early to talk about plans.
"I found out about it an hour ago, and that's why I can't talk about the plans right now. I would have to remember what I thought about our media during the previous period, but now is not the time to talk about it," Bratina told UNS.
As he points out, it is the idea of being proposed as a minister was also a surprise, but, he says, he did not attach importance to it.
"With all my life experience, I was skeptical that it would actually happen, until the official information arrived today," says Bratina.
He points out that he is not a professional politician, but that he "hopes that he will do well".
"I've written a bit about the media in my career. In the last few years that I've been participating in various television programs, I've gained experience and respect for journalists and media workers. When you see how they work from the inside, it gives a different light to my opinion about them. I've met with both young and older journalists, the doyens of journalism, and now I have a different insight into their work and the work of the media," said Bratina.
Boris Bratina is an associate professor at the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Prishtina (temporarily based in Kosovska Mitrovica).
He has been teaching Contemporary Philosophy and Ontology since his appointment as assistant professor. He was a member of the faculty council, editor of the student magazine Filstud and is a trustee of the Serbian Philosophical Society for Kosovo and Metohija.

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, boasted that he would write the world bestseller "How I Defeated the Colored Revolution" by June 28. On this occasion, the students in the blockade invite all citizens to gather in Belgrade for Vidovdan and celebrate Vučić's victory over them.
Journalist associations condemned the dismissal of journalist Marija Šehić and accused the management of "Juronjuz" of collapsing professional standards, concealing information and ignoring the union's demands.
Although the opposition claims that a person who was not on the voter's list voted, the Kosjerić MEC did not see a reason to cancel the election.
In a public appeal, 25 members of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts accuse the President of Serbia of collapsing institutions, the media, the judiciary and the basic pillars of society.

Vučić is not defending the state, but himself from the state.
