At the same time, they addressed the President of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić, who came to the defense of director Stojković on Sunday, asking him if he considers the students and their parents responsible for this situation, bearing in mind his earlier assessment that the parents did not raise their children properly.
They also asked Vučić whether his real intention was to shut down the oldest and most famous high school in Novi Sad, with the explanation that no school can function without teachers and students.
If, as they state, that is not the goal, the parents expect Vučić to immediately request the dismissal of Stojković, who, according to them, the president himself admitted was a difficult man and made mistakes.
During today's visit to Zapadnobački district, Vučić also spoke about the students' protest in the office of the director of the "Jovan Jovanović Zmaj" Gymnasium. On that occasion, he accused the students of jumping uncontrollably around the director, while Stojković sat and remained silent.

The President of Serbia, however, assessed that the problem is not with the principal of the high school, but with the parents and the way they raised their children.
He stated that Stojković can sometimes make mistakes, but that he does not consider him the main problem. According to Vučić, the responsibility lies with the parents who make fun of older people and direct their children towards politics from the age of 15, at the same time teaching them to disrespect the elderly.
