An activist was fined 16.000 dinars because of a smoke cartridge at a protest

The Bravo civil movement, whose activist Varvara Lukač was legally sentenced to 16.000 dinars, because she held a cartridge that emits smoke at the "Serbia against violence" protest in July last year, asks how it is possible that she is without a legally binding conviction for lighting more than 20 torches, on the occasion of Aleksandar Vučić's birthday, his son Danilo Vučić remains and the organizer of this celebration

Did the last word fall?

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

All the elections on the second of June: The government gave in, the opposition chooses boycott or megdan

There are still 45 days until the elections in Belgrade and about a hundred other local governments. Now the progressives can say that they have fulfilled "all" the demands of the opposition, including the control of the voter list. The coalition "Serbia against violence" claims that it will make a joint decision, although the positions are different

Forcing a boycott: What's the point when it doesn't work?

We have already seen all of that, and that the opposition will not "give legitimacy", and that the boycott will "bare the government" and that there will be an "active boycott"... and it was all empty talk. And they are talking again, before the elections that can be won despite the theft of the regime

Where to go without an agreement between the government and the opposition: There are three paths to the election

Ana Brnabić announced the Belgrade elections for June 2. There is still a theoretical chance that Vučić will "interfere" and for the sake of "stability" perform a legal acrobatics so that the Belgrade and other local elections will be held on the same day. If that does not happen, the opposition will either go to the elections or try an "active" boycott. But not everyone is of the same opinion

Every meter of the city should be covered

"In order to earn the support of the citizens of Belgrade again, we have to do our homework: fight for better election conditions, motivate them to go to the polls and vote against the pest government. We have to do all this under unequal conditions in order to restore trust in democracy and the democratic institutions of this country after the elections."

The opposition presented a document on the conditions for going to the elections

The coalitions Serbia against violence and NADA signed a document on the conditions that the government should fulfill before the next elections. It all boils down to ensuring a fair and honest election process. If the parties in power agreed to this, they would at least hand Belgrade over to the opposition

Postponement of the Belgrade elections: The cards have been distributed again

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, ruled that the Belgrade elections will not be held on April 28, as he had previously announced, but on June 2. He also postponed the continuation of the constitution of the Assembly of Serbia. The cards are dealt again, the question is who holds what trump cards. And did a completely different game begin

ODHIR Report: Ensure consistent application of procedures

"The final report on the December elections of the ODIHR, which is expected to be published tomorrow, will most likely not differ much from the preliminary one, and its essence is the finding of electoral theft by the regime of Aleksandar Vučić", said Radomir Lazović.

Projection of (ab)normality: Vučić's "consultations" about the new government

The Assembly of Serbia was quickly constituted, but the president and parliamentary bodies were not elected. The Assembly of Belgrade was not even constituted due to "lack of quorum". Representatives of the largest opposition group refuse to go to consultations about the Government with the President of the country, instead in Brussels and Paris they call on the competent institutions to send an international commission to Serbia to investigate "electoral theft" in the extraordinary elections held on December 17.

Post-election campaign: Waiting for the European Commission

The European Parliament said what it had to say about the Serbian elections held on December 17 - nothing good. Now it is the turn of the European Commission, the executive power of the European Union. Her moves will determine the future of Serbia, both internally and externally. That is why the delegation of Serbia against violence is going to Brussels
