RTS employees gathered in the "Our Protest" initiative demand the immediate publication of the names of the responsible editors who make decisions about the content of the program during the blockade of the building. They are also looking for an answer to the question - why is the majority of the editorial staff completely excluded from work?
The informal group of employees of Radio and Television of Serbia "Naš pRoTeSt" expressed their concern that, since the beginning of the blockade of RTS, the management of the public service has not officially addressed them about the fact that they do not have "any instructions" on how they can exercise "the right to work in this crisis situation".
"Why is the management discriminating by inviting only a small part of the employees to work, while the other, larger part is ignored? Why are we being denied the right to work?" stated in the statement Naš pRoTeSt, with a call to the RTS management to "urgently address them with clear instructions".
It was also requested that "the names and surnames of the persons who edit the news since the blockade of the RTS building and the broadcasting of programs from another location began".
"We demand from the editor-in-chief of the Information Program Nenad LJ. Stefanović and his assistants Gorislav Papić and Zoran Stanojević to urgently inform us who is the author of the text in which the students in the blockade are compared to the Nazis, which was read on the Dnevnik show on April 16. Who among the editors approved the reading of the text? We demand the immediate identification of the names of the authors and editors and their immediate resignation," the Informal Group of Employees in Radio-television of Serbia Our ProTeSt.

The case of Milica Stojanović, who hit a student police officer with her car during the January protests, experienced a sudden turn in just a few months - from being accused of attempted murder to being released from custody and transferred to the basic court. The decisions of the prosecution and the court raised suspicions of political pressure and selective justice
The group of students who started the symbolic ultramarathon from Serbia to the EU on April 25 arrived in Brussels. MEP Irena Joveva said: "We saw where the president of Serbia was two days ago, and you can see where the students are now."
The Democratic Party and the Green-Left Front support the student request to hold extraordinary parliamentary elections, but warn that the conditions will not be a fairy tale.
"You can't live without Vučić. Because, as with similar regimes, the fall from power or the loss of office can mean prison if there is a trial for corruption or other criminal acts," political scientist Vedran Džihić told Frankfurter Rundschau.
The interlocutors of "Vremen" emphasize that the Ministry of Education is only interested in how to completely suppress any kind of rebellion with pressure and that the school year ends, and educators go on vacation, so that students lose an important ally
The regime's retaliation will be dire if the resistance falters. Now they want to imprison the people who talked about overthrowing the government because they were supposedly overthrowing the state. But the state was hijacked and overthrown by the regime a long time ago
The knee-jerk Supreme Being trusts in the local elections in Kosjerić and Zaječar. It must not be forgotten that for 13 years he poured heavy poisons, especially in the province, and that detoxification is a long and painful process.
If the various opponents of Vučić's regime are unable to help the student youth, they could at least not retaliate. They have been working the same way and with the same disastrous results for too long to expect anyone to ask them anything
