The former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Energy is not part of the new government of Ana Brnabić. At the press conference, she said that she will remain in politics, but not necessarily as a member of SNS, and that Serbia has a place in the European Union.

Zorana Mihajlovic said goodbye to the government at the press conference. She did not specify whether she would remain in the Serbian Progressive Party, but she made it clear that it was time to "reconcile accounts", to "draw a line" and that she intended to remain in politics with or without SNS, that is that her remaining in the current party is uncertain.

She said that it will certainly be easier for her not to look at some people who "exploit" SNS, and that it will also be easier for them not to look at her anymore.

She will talk about her plans and the reasons why she dropped out of the game in the new government in a few months. She does not regret anything and is proud of the results she achieved with her colleagues.

"I didn't agree to be anyone's pawn," Mihajlovic said, citing that as the reason she is not part of the new government. She didn't say exactly whose pawn she didn't want to be, but she did say that in Ana Brnabić's new team there would no longer be "that one different voice", i.e. hers, because she did not hesitate to say how things really are, "pop is pop, and the bob is the bob".

Mihajlović said that Serbia's place is in the European Union and in the West, but not in the East, and that the president of the SNS and Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, knows very well in which direction Serbia should go, but that she is in the government on that issue. was in the minority.

He says that he is "not sure if it is pro-European" about the new government.

She also said that Serbia should not give up lithium, and as far as EPS is concerned, her ministry filed criminal charges against those responsible for organized crime.

In the beginning was virtue.

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

Government of Serbia: New reality show season with evictions and special guests

Dacic is the Minister of Foreign Affairs to the delight of the Kremlin and the starlet, the election of Vesic as the Minister of Construction and Infrastructure made Šapić's nightmare come true, Đuka waved a bengal because of the absence of Mihajlović in the Government, and Jadranka Joksimović indignantly refused to replace the meetings in Brussels with meetings with DJ Vučićević

Portrait of a contemporary: Zorana Mihajlović

Herta Müller from our alley

The last time "Vreme" dealt with the portrait of Zorana Mihajlović was six years ago, and then we concluded that her political future was uncertain. However, nothing has changed in these six years, only the list of those with whom she was in conflict, and shares her political commitment, is somewhat longer. Therefore, it is more likely that it is a kind of modus operandi, clearly divided and pre-prepared roles

In the quiz, they would say, a million for the one who guesses whether Zorana Mihajlović's statements were rushed or deliberately forced into the public to take off like a test balloon or like a "released flea" in the tightest agreement with the prime minister
