Although some collectives have decided that classes in Belgrade high schools will start again from Tuesday, the students are not giving up on the blockades. The President of the Forum of Belgrade Grammar Schools, Ana Dmitrijević, says that teachers will enter the classrooms tomorrow - but most likely in empty ones.
Publishers would not have boycotted the Competition for the purchase of books if the students had not had a fourth request, as well as if the previous ministries of culture were more concerned with the Cyrillic alphabet - believes the Minister of Culture Nikola Selaković
About fifty publishers have decided to boycott the competition of the Ministry of Culture for the purchase of books, not to participate in international fairs organized by the Ministry, and to temporarily suspend the delivery of mandatory copies of books to the National Library of Serbia and Matica srpska
After the one-day, consumer association Effectiva called for a five-day boycott of large retail chains. The reason is high prices, and the previous boycott of shops resulted in a decrease in turnover by a third
After a relatively successful boycott of large retail chains on January 31, in some supermarkets, contrary to the intentions of the boycott, the prices of certain products were increased. That's why the Association for Consumer Protection of Effectiva called for a new five-day boycott, from February 10 to 14
The association for consumer protection "Effectiva" called on citizens to boycott the purchase of groceries in large retail chains on Friday because of the "most expensive groceries in Europe". In the stores, it really seems that there are fewer customers than usual, although before the boycott they lowered the prices massively
Consumers are urged not to shop in supermarkets because of the huge prices. While some think it can have an effect, others wonder where people should shop
The prestigious "Meša Selimović" literary award found itself at the center of controversy after the call for a boycott initiated by Nebojša Milenković. The writer's family joined the criticism, expressing dissatisfaction with the way in which the name of one of the most important Serbian writers is used.
The actors of Atelje 212 came out in front of their theater, paid respect to the victims in Novi Sad and supported the students
The owner of the confectionary company "Nelly" from Loznica, Mitar Obradović, threatens with heavy lawsuits to anyone who criticizes the company on social media or calls for a boycott. Why?
"It was not an election. This country was hijacked by an organized criminal group led by Aleksandar Vučić," says Đilas
Boycotters can rejoice, on the principle that the neighbor's cow is mooing. Those who stood up to Vučić's party-state machinery suffered a flood. In the opposition ranks, the winners are Savo Manojlović in Belgrade and Dr. Dragan Milić in Niš
If you are not satisfied with the current government, and yet everything is dark in your city or municipality, then you really should not go to the local elections under these conditions. But if not, rest assured that the next four years will be even worse if you don't vote for change on June 2nd. Then don't complain to anyone
I am not against non-participation in the elections (so-called boycott) if it could give any, even long-term, results. But, on this occasion, there are no conditions for such results, and there were none before the opposition split. For myself, I decided to vote guided not only by reason but also by feeling: something active must be done and right now. I believe many of us share that feeling
Miroslav Aleksić, one of the leading people of the "I choose the fight" coalition, talks to "Vreme" about the "matchmaking of the regime", the overthrown and then returned lists and why he still thinks there are chances of victory.
The SSP does not call people to boycott, but what it is telling the citizens is to think about whether these are really elections, says Borko Stefanović, and believes that in a few months they would be able to check and clean the voter list from 2018, and that the next elections will not be held only at the age of four rather than much earlier
Choosing between two bad options, the opposition managed to choose the third, the worst: to quarrel and divide among themselves. The call for a boycott in Belgrade threatened, for example, the victory in Novi Sad, where there will be no boycott
Bitter discussion and increased temperature in the new Vremena podcast show about the question of how and why the "Serbia against violence" electoral coalition fell apart and who is to blame for it
The criminal regime has long had no legitimacy. It is clear that there is no democracy in Serbia. Going to the elections does not give him legitimacy, just as accepting a mandate in the National Assembly does not acknowledge that the election conditions were fair or that there was no theft
We can dwell endlessly on what would have been. The political reality, however, is that the idea of a boycott has failed. The worst thing now would be if its supporters undermine the campaign of those who go to the elections, just to prove that they were right. In Belgrade. Because in the rest of Serbia, even the boycotters are not calling for a boycott
After the discussion in the Serbian Parliament, amendments to the Law on Local Elections were introduced. The members of the "Serbia against violence" coalition are divided on the question of going to the elections on June 2 into two currents with completely different views - one is for going to all local elections in Serbia, the other is for a boycott
Although Serbia Center, Zajedno and the Party of Freedom and Justice decided to boycott the Belgrade elections on June 2, many of their committees throughout Serbia could go to the elections.
The calls of some opposition leaders to boycott and others to go to the elections on June 2 seem confusing to the voters. But actually everything is quite clear. The question is: what now?
Serbs boycotted the referendum at the invitation of the Serbian List. The turnout was very low, there were more observers and members of election committees than citizens themselves
The City Committee of the New Democratic Party of Serbia unanimously decided not to participate in the Belgrade elections on June 2 because "there are no elementary conditions for their fair and honest holding."
Anyone who knows anything about active opposition activities must beware of labels such as "Trojan" or "Vučić's man" - most of these people paid a huge price for their political involvement. That is why the worst thing would be if both wings of the divided coalition start a mutual confrontation instead of the progressives
With all the understanding of the terrible election conditions, one must vote, because boycotting the elections today means giving away four more years to a government that has already completely destroyed everything it touched.
