Local elections 2026. 18.march 2026 Nedim Sejdinovic Where are the greatest chances for a change of government The anti-regime bloc is doing very well in Sevojno, Bor, Kula, Bajana Bašta and Arandjelovac. It is somewhat weaker in Smederevska Palanka, Kladovo, Majdanpek, Knjaževac and Lucani. Less because it was not very well organized, more due to the high starting position of the regime in certain parts of the country - analysts say that the SNS weakened the least in the south and east of Serbia
Regime policy of own impunity 18.march 2026 Jovana Gligorijevic The death of individual responsibility When government ignores the consequences of its decisions, it not only ignores current victims, but also creates a culture in which any future disaster becomes legitimate.
The Serbian Orthodox Church and the law 18.march 2026 Bojan Bednar Bishops are kings in their territory The case in which Patriarch Porfirije (pictured) is facing the possibility of proceedings being initiated against him due to mobbing - which is in extreme opposition to Christian values - has left a bitter impression on part of the public in Serbia, first of all among those who naively believe that such things do not happen in the Church. However, connoisseurs of church affairs have known for a long time that cases of mobbing against priests that go public are unfortunately only the tip of a huge iceberg, about which little is said.
Armament and the Serbian Army 18.march 2026 Viktor Radonjic Distraction, intimidation and selling fog To what extent is the information that the Serbian Army is seriously "building up" weapons? What is the purpose of strengthening armed capacities and, therefore, what kind of messages are sent for internal use, and what kind of messages are intended for the environment? Does the military cooperation between Zagreb, Tirana and Pristina really scare the regime and Vučić or is it all a show that feeds the vanity of one man? Why is military "power" tendentially promoted in this context through the pro-regime media, what is the correlation of this propaganda package with the elections, and what is it in the wider context of geopolitical circumstances? These questions are answered by Vojkan Kostić, Petar Bošković and Boško Jakšić
Croatia 18.march 2026 Jaroslav Pecnik From relativization and normalization towards the rehabilitation of the NDH and Ustaste Fitting into the trend and taking over the helm of the frenzied right-wing movement, Plenković's government, with the support of various veterans' associations, some of the leaders of the Catholic Church in Croatia, and the ubiquitous corruption, crime, lawlessness and all the force of other deformations, also encouraged the escalation of violence, regularly accusing the victims hypocritically.
Responsibility towards vulnerable groups 18.march 2026 Danilo Savic People the City Forgot Two years ago, about 100 million dinars were given from the budget for advertising of the city administration - an amount sufficient to ensure the operation of the Inn for three years. To make things more cynical, the billboards in question were promoting Belgrade and the government as socially responsible actors who stand by their citizens.
Interview: Darko Tomović, president of Singlus 18.march 2026 Sonja Ciric The National Theater must not fall "There are 10.500 of us in the culture. In the whole country. That is not even a fraction of the total number of the population. But we are recognized as such, we are important and we stand out"
"Times" Tribune 18.march 2026 Jovana Đurđić Belgrade needs the city police, instead of private security How safe is Belgrade under the SNS and does it need a city police, some of the questions that the participants of the first panel "Vremena" "Belgrade, so little is ours" tried to answer. The participants also warned that the capital of Serbia today has almost no competence in the field of security
exclusive 15.march 2001 Igor Mekina and Svetlana Vasović-Mekina Confession of Mira Marković "I believe that the members of the SPS and JUL, those who are not mentioned in the newspapers and on television as thieves, rich or that they are suspicious and responsible for some other reason - I believe that they are the ones who made an agreement with the new authorities to that government protects their material and other interests, their rather large wealth, and that in return they contribute to the bribery of their yesterday's comrades and personal friends"
Interview - Sanda Rašković-Ivić, Commissioner for Refugees of the Republic of Serbia 15.march 2001 Jelena Grujić We don't want ghettoization "Refugees have been manipulated like no other population in recent times. Perhaps only the mentally ill were manipulated that way in the Soviet Union during Stalin's reign of terror."
The case of the three beaten 15.march 2001 Uroš Komlenović Nothing new in Pozarevac The new authorities shout at the top of their voices that those responsible for the collapse of the state will be tried. Wouldn't it be more logical to rehabilitate the victims first?
Macedonia 15.march 2001 Nenad Lj. Stefanović The collapse of ethnic romanticism In some reflections on the latest events not only in Macedonia but also in the south of Serbia, one hears how the Albanian side is allegedly trying to catch the "last train" for a more comprehensive solution to its own issue and to reach, possibly, a new Dayton by radicalizing the situation on the ground.
Comment How Peter the Hungarian defeated Viktor Orban The Tisza victory of Peter the Hungarian goes beyond the borders of tiny Hungary. It spills over to neighboring Serbia as a nightmare for Aleksandar Vučić and motivation for all those who want to see his back. Andrei Ivanji
Overview of the week Without organization, there is no victory. If Vučić calls elections for the summer, the student movement and choirs must be ready. The experiences gained in Kula, Sevojno or Arandjelovac are valuable, but not enough. Small mistakes today can be fatal tomorrow. The future of Serbia is at stake Philip Schwarm
Comment The strangulation of N1 and others: Everything is going according to plan The signing of Brent Sadler as United Group's media director is the penultimate step in a creeping stranglehold on critical media. The government won't save it, but at least the audience got an important lesson Nemanja Rujevic
