The regime is bursting at the seams.
There is always the option to keep the regime in power by violence, that is, to grow from an autocracy into a complete dictatorship and even into fascism. I cannot estimate what we are closer to, but the key determinant of further development is the resistance of the majority of Serbia. I do not mean only the resistance in the streets, but the collective effort and motivation to return democracy to Serbia
Interview: Dejan Bursać
The openness of the student movement is more important than leaders who can negotiate
"Through the research that we follow, we do not see anything happening that shows that citizens are disappointed and that abstainers want to return to abstinence.

Military parade: Paradero and balancero
Does Aleksandar Vučić have an army? Some advanced cadres would certainly stand behind their "commander-in-chief" at the "given moment". But what about the hull? Well, nothing - the vast majority would slack off, take sick leave, evaporate. They are only there for the money

Political life and death
The last one standing wins
By refusing to call early elections, the regime sends an implicit message to all who are part of the clientelistic system: if elections are persistently avoided, it is as if they have already been called – and lost.
