A student movement between paranoia and hope

If the student movement is more concerned with "security assessments" than a real election campaign, it will lose what adorned it at the beginning and what shook progressive Serbia - the feeling of hope that exists and is real

Victory is certain.

"Students did ask me if I would like to be on the list and I answered in the affirmative," says Rector Vladan Đokić in an interview with "Vreme". We talked about the attacks on the university, his trips to Brussels and whether he fears that the student movement is turning to the right. And on the statement that he will have to leave the post of rector if he becomes a member of parliament or, who knows, prime minister, Professor Đokić says: "We'll see if and when that moment will come. It could be before, and maybe after the end of my term as rector."

With Kosovo in the heart on behalf of those who do not know

In the campaign for power, we will have to tell the less educated citizens some of what they want to hear. Is it demagoguery? Certainly. Is this the same as what Vučić is doing? Undoubtedly. So we are the same as Vucic? Well, that's the catch. We didn't

The fight for right-leaning souls

The history of the Serbian multi-party system provides very clear guidelines on how a player on the political scene must position himself in order to be effective: be he a leftist or a liberal, he must not ignore right-wing sentiments, which for 36 years have been, if not dominant, at least as alive as the others.

Without organization, there is no victory.

If Vučić calls elections for the summer, the student movement and choirs must be ready. The experiences gained in Kula, Sevojno or Arandjelovac are valuable, but not enough. Small mistakes today can be fatal tomorrow. The future of Serbia is at stake

Fatting Granny Pig on the eve of Christmas

Although there is no indication whether there will be extraordinary parliamentary elections and whether they will be merged with the regular presidential elections that must be held by the spring of 2027, the government has started at these levels. For this purpose, she launched an initiative on three levels - institutional, digital and shy going out on the street. The leading idea of all this was once formulated by the SPS: "If the elections are organized properly, the people do not have to go to them."

When we blow and fire, we will destroy Ćaciland

Milo Đukanović ruled Montenegro for 32 years. Vučić would at least trade Serbia that much, which means another 18 years - with the police force, secret services, paramilitary party formations, restrained judiciary and enraged tabloids.

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. People are also determined that whenever the elections come, they will go out and vote against SNS. And this is also shown by the moments of large mobilizations in society."

The scent of autumn elections

With economic measures and organized spontaneous gatherings, Aleksandar Vučić is trying to consolidate his electorate, while at the same time undermining students and the opposition and dealing with independent media. Between the progressive staged idyll and the social rebellion, the hint of an election is felt more and more strongly. The pre-campaign has begun in earnest. When and under what conditions could citizens go to the polls again

Violence instead of democracy

So far, every attempt by the regime to suppress the protests by force has only produced the opposite effect - more public anger and the determination of the demonstrators. In such an atmosphere, the only solution that can bring things back into the constitutional framework is elections where citizens would freely express their will and give mandate to those they trust. Now is exactly that moment - huge protests and social crisis unmistakably indicate that the majority will of the people is for change to come at the polls, not on the street. If elections are not called urgently, it is very likely that we will witness a continuation of the dangerous spiral of violence and institutional breakdown
