The Serbian security sector resembles the police service of Ćaciland, former defender of citizens' rights and presidential candidate Saša Janković told "Vreme".

Demonstrator Veroljub Sarić (90): Persistence, only persistence

How was sixteen minutes of silence interrupted by a driver who drove into the crowd in front of the Faculty of Law?

Interview: Vesna Pusić

27.May 2026. Nedim Sejdinovic

Serbia is ready for political changes

Corruption is the first and biggest enemy of EU membership. Adaptation to European normative, institutional and procedural standards is a significant part of a country's entry into the EU. It is a way to speed up the building of political self-awareness and the institutional infrastructure of a democratic state in countries with very little or no democratic tradition. Without meeting at least the minimum of those standards, not only is it not possible to function within the EU, but membership has no meaning. Therefore, some "consolation prize" does not make any sense
