Proven with Vučić
In December 2023, before the parliamentary and Belgrade elections, he signed his support for the "Aleksandar Vučić - Serbia must not stop" list.
On January 24, 2025, he was a speaker at a rally in Jagodina organized by the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, on the occasion of the founding of the Movement for the People and the State.
"During the entire time of my medical practice, I was not a member of any political party or lobby, and everything I succeeded in is my merit. And in that period, in the last few years, there was a significant rise in the healthcare system in Serbia, so that our citizens were provided with the most modern diagnostics, the latest therapeutic procedures, opportunities for treatment, and to provide children with medicines that are vitally important. We must continue through mutual cooperation, connections between associates, students and their teachers at medical faculties in Serbia," said the doctor Macut.(RTS, 24. 1. 2025)
He is a member of the initiative committee for the establishment of the Movement for the People and the State.
The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, proposed him as a candidate for the President of the new Government of Serbia.
Hymns
The President of the Assembly of Serbia, Ana Brnabić, wished the best to Mandate Đura Matsut, stating that he is a "brilliant, brave, calm and stable man".
"Everything that the Government of Serbia needs at this moment. President Aleksandar Vučić, after careful deliberation, again managed to find the best solution for Serbia. To the pride of our country. I congratulate him and wish him much success," Brnabić wrote on the social network X.
The Minister of Internal Affairs and President of the Socialist Party of Serbia, Ivica Dacic, said that the election of Đur Macut as the representative of the Government of Serbia is a good choice and that the Socialists will be a constructive partner.
"I can only welcome such a proposal. We will be a constructive partner and we will cooperate. Our political system is based on political parties, it may not be good, but a better one has not yet been invented," Dacic told TV Pink on Sunday evening.
Insults
Pavle Grbović, president of the Movement of Free Citizens and representative of the parliamentary opposition, says that the mandate can be anyone or no one, while Vučić is the president of the country.
"The current incumbent is somewhere between those two extremes. It's just shades of irrelevance. He has to go! Matsut is the final contribution to Vučić's prank of anti-politics and contempt for politicians. Because only he is allowed to engage in politics. For everyone else, it must be rubbish, and anyone who tries must be denounced. But well, we contributed to it ourselves," he said.
Former President of Serbia and President of the Social Democratic Party, Boris Tadić, said that "Serbia should continue to pump for a Government that will enable fair and free elections."
"Maybe Macut could have been elected to the head of a scientific or health institution, but certainly his knowledge about polycystic ovaries is not a reference for leading the Government, which requires a completely different kind of expertise, primarily political," said Tadić.
The Serbia Center movement, whose president is Zdravko Ponoš, announced that "Dr. Macut's only task will be to try to turn the suit inside out, thinking that he has sufficiently masked both himself and Vučić in order to curb the anger of students and rebellious citizens due to unfulfilled demands."
The other representatives of the opposition spoke in the same tone about the future prime minister.
A group of individuals has created two websites where public procurement of the Telecom and IT sectors can be searched and compared. They invite the media, experts and citizens to review the documentation and submit reasoned observations
Very soon it could become obvious whether Milan Radoičić has left Serbia or not
The hospital formed a commission for an extraordinary expert check and informed the health inspection. Cases of death during childbirth in Serbia rarely receive a judicial epilogue.
Two unions of public services supported the request of FDU students for information about RTS employees, since claims appeared in the public that it was a request for "files". The students say they are looking for "public truth about public service."
Among those pardoned is the man who attacked a citizen who came to ask about the street in the office of the mayor of Kosjerić in April. The pardon applies only to one of the two offenses, and the injured party announces a constitutional appeal.
At the moment when the institutions of the Republic are destroyed, when Vučić's octopus is still alive, when people are disgusted by the injustice and the stench left behind by the Essenes regime, we have, as Machiavelli said, only civic virtue as the fuel with which we can return to the beginning
The four independent members of REM are an example of perseverance and civic responsibility. Rodoljub Šabić even, upon leaving the premises of REM, after the sentencing of the Informer, experienced that the Essenes insulted him, hit him with their hands and feet. But that too will soon be over
Vučić pardoned the batterers and Dijana Hrkalović. The election winners should abolish the sultan's power that allows one man to run afoul of the entire judicial system
