After almost six months of stagnation, the Assembly of Kosovo was finally constituted by the election of Nenad Rašić as vice-president from the ranks of the Serbian community. The Serbian List, whose candidates did not receive support, announces the possibility of an appeal
Prophet Nenad Rasic was elected vice president Assembly of Kosovo from the ranks of the Serbian community, which, after almost half a year, ended the constitutive session of the ninth convocation and formally unblocked the work of Kosovo's institutions.
Rašić's election, which received the support of 71 MPs, with nine votes against and 24 abstentions, enabled the Assembly to begin functioning, and the deadline for the formation of a new government to begin. The Speaker of the Parliament, Dimalj Baša, stated that this fulfilled the obligation according to the decision of the Constitutional Court, which two days ago gave a deadline of 12 days for the completion of the constitution.
This outcome came about after none of the nine candidates of the Serbian List managed to get the necessary support in several rounds of voting. After the unsuccessful candidacies of Slavko Simić, Zlatan Elek, Ljiljana Stevanović and others, the list of proposals from the Serbian List was exhausted, so Nenad Rašić was put to the vote, even though that list did not propose him.
Serbian Lista has the right to appeal today's decision, which could lead to a repeat of the procedure and a new decision of the Constitutional Court, and even to the possibility of calling new elections.
According to the Albanian-language media, the election of Rašić broke the institutional blockade that had been in place since the February elections.
Should the names of the candidates for the student list be published before the students themselves do it, is a difficult journalistic dilemma on which we currently do not have a consensus as an editorial staff.
Three incidents in seven days in Croatia brought back to the fore the topic of Ustaste and the relationship of the Croatian state towards the Serbian minority. What do they say in Serbia?
Students of several Belgrade faculties and the General Staff Ensemble initiative held a protest in front of the General Staff building, with the message that they will "defend this symbol of Belgrade with their bodies" if the government does not abandon plans to demolish it. Those present made a "ring" around this building, and drew a red line around it, over which those who plan to demolish this cultural property - crossing is forbidden
This regime seems to have created a new job - the designer of mischief for the sake of making life as miserable as possible for people who support the protests
Despite physical exhaustion, Diana Hrka, the mother of the victim Stefan, continues her hunger strike in front of Ćaciland. He says that he will not stop the protest and accuses the institutions of not doing their job and lying to the citizens.
Who among us has ever looked at all 250 names of parliamentary candidates on the list for which they want to vote? Although it is not stated anywhere, it is clear that the student list will be a buffet. If it matters to anyone, they have my vote, even if I don't like 249 names
Aleksandar Vučić is carrying out an unannounced coup d'état. It's for nothing. He has no defense against the demand for justice. Because how can he look into the eyes of a mother who is on hunger strike, calm the people on the streets and silence the schoolchildren who are shouting on the excursion - "Pump!"
Aleksandar Vučić thinks he is traveling to Brussels on Tuesday as the President of the Republic of Serbia, but he is actually leaving as the President of Ćaciland. That's what he reduced himself to, only he's still not aware of it
