by Saker’s Johnny-on-the-spot in Belgrade for The Saker Blog
Last Monday, August 3 – to paraphrase President Roosevelt – was a day that will live in Serbia’s parliamentary infamy. The fraudulently elected “parliament” was formally seated, but its inauguration was most inauspicious. On the plateau in front of the Parliament building indignant citizens greeted the arrival of the tyrant’s rubber stamp “parliamentarians” with angry shouts, eggs (hopefully as rotten as their targets), and tomatoes. Take a watch:
A journalist inside the building tried to strike up impromptu conversations with the new “legislators,” but few seemed self-confident enough to chat or even bold enough to identify themselves by name. One of them (Vučić’s former minister of culture Tasovac, at 00.36 seconds, with his signature bizarre hairstyle) tried to run away. If you speak Serbian, take another watch, but if you do not speak the language, no big deal. Just kick back and enjoy the obvious discomfort of these fraudsters, whose body language is a clear admission that they are where they do not belong:
Would anyone watching this disgraceful spectacle ever guess that the renewal of Serbia’s independent statehood in early 19th century was accompanied at every turn by vibrant parliamentary life? Tyranny and one-man rule are inherently incompatible with the Serbian ethos. Even during the first Serbian insurrection against Ottoman occupation in 1804 there was an advisory soviet (Правителствующій совѣт сербскій) to make sure that Karageorge, the leader of the rebellion, would not be making arbitrary decisions. Throughout the rest of the 19th century, Parliament or Скупштина, played a major role in political life, balancing the power of the prince and later the king. The golden age of Serbian parliamentarianism was the first decade of the 20th century when the Skupština, in terms of the quality of its proceedings and elite composition, which included the country’s most accomplished citizens and finest minds, was more than a match for its Western European models. Their successors today are colorless, insecure non-entities looking only for a sinecure and always ready to raise their hands approvingly at the command of their ruling party superiors.
And they will be expected to do just that soon, when the constitutional amendament to delete the preamble which asserts that Kosovo is an inalienable part of Serbia is put before them. They will be expected also to approve mass compulsory Covid-19 vaccionations with hastily improvised, untested and unsafe experimental preparations which the regime intends to use on a good part of the Serbian population as guinea pigs, in return for hefty bribes from crooked pharmaceutical manufacturers. And they will at some point undoubtedly raise their hands also when asked to publicly approve the currently secret arrangements whereby hordes of migrants deemed superflous by Germany, Austria, and other EU countries will be dumped on Serbia, to be permanently settled here.
Serbs are expressing their utter disgust at the regime’s rampaging madness with various degrees of public intensity, depending on where they happen to be. On August 8, free Serbs in the diaspora conducted protests against the Vučić regime in about a dozen world capitals and major cities. These are their plans and demands:
The symbol of the diaspora protests are Rattling Keys, signifying the incarcerated condition of the Serbian people in their homeland under tyrannical rule. Here are some scenes from the protests far from the reach of Vučić’s lawless tontons macoutes:
“Phony elections, a phony parliament, soon a phony government, phony figures of Corona virus victims. We can no longer keep silent as democracy and freedom are being obliterated,” according to Lazar Karapandža, spokesman for the „Democracy 4 Serbia“ protests.
Their compatriots in Serbia, however, are less fortunate when it comes to freely expressing their views. The regime is installing face recognition cameras all over Belgrade, and probably in the interior as well. There is a price to be paid for non-conformist thinking and behaviour in today’s Serbia. A woman who attended the nightly protest in front of the Parliament building in Belgrade a few days ago was followed by two uniformed policemen when she boarded a bus to go home. They asked her for her ID, Ihre Papiere bitte, presumably in Serbian, and demanded she get off at the next stop so that they could issue her a 5000 dinar (about $50) fine, a small fortune in Vučić’s prosperous Serbia. When the lady, who has no criminal record, asked the police why they were doing that, they replied “because we saw you at the protest”. Take a watch at how police intimidation unfolded (00 to 3:14 minutes), in front of the Parliament of aspiring EU applicant Serbia:
But all told the lady got off relatively lightly. On Thursday, a 31-year-old man, whom the authorities identified only as P. G., was arrested in the provincial city of Užice over twenty days after committing the heinous offense for which charges against him are now being pressed. The corpus delicti was that together with other miscreants P. G. took part in an anti-regime demonstration, pictured below
in front of the building housing the headquarters of the ruling party. During the disturbance – and get this gentle readers – the crowd pelted “with eggs, tomatoes, and paint” a huge poster of – need I explicitly disclose who? – and the banner of his Serbian Progressive Party.
The hapless P. G. was jailed for 48 hours, pending a court decision on whether detention should be extended for the next thirty days. Three young men who were also charged with defacing the tyrant’s image with paint and assorted vegetables were threatened by prosecutors with four-month prison terms for “unruly conduct.”
With such outstanding first hand reports, the unflattering assessment by the respected French weekly political magazine “Le Point,” that “the dream of the rule of law in the heart of the Balkans is increasingly fading,” is as unsurprising as it is easily verifiable.
Mincing no words in its blazing headline, “Aleksandar Vucic, le satrape des Balkans”, so transparently damning that it does not even require a translation, having made plain that Serbia is ruled by a lawless regime, “Le Point” points out the seeming paradox that “beyond Serbia’s borders no European country dares to criticize Vučić’s abuses. There is an explanation for such diplomatic leniency. The West believes that as a leader Vučić is capable of bringing lasting peace to the heart of Europe. But how?”
“By recognizing Kosovo,” the French weekly calmly answers its own rhetorical question.
The conclusion rings true, but it is hardly a compliment from the standpoint of most Serbs.
So Vučić’s game is largely up. His measure has been taken, and he has been found wanting. His pretenses are not believed, they are merely being tolerated, and for the sake of a larger objective set by globalist power centers whose marionette he is. Once he facilitates that objective, his tolerated abuses will be turned into a lengthy indictment, the usual grim fate of satraps. (For those interested in linguistic precision, “satrap” is defined as “a provincial governor in the ancient Persian empire” or alternatively “any subordinate or local ruler.” The French are known for carefully picking their words.) Vučić will then be toast, as dispensable as used toilet paper. But if he fails to facilitate it, he will also be toast, as he very well understands. Either way, he goes down in flames with his toadies.
If you are upset, bots and trolls, spare me the invective. Earn your daily sandwich for a change by haranguing “Le Point’s” editors instead. This is their email: abo@lepoint.fr .
Tell them how they’ve got it all wrong, won’t you? And do it in impeccable French.
The protest in front of the parliament was really impressive. :D
As for Le Point, it seems they are not happy with Vucic…and here is why (from the subtitle):
“He plays hot and cold with Europe, while flattering his friends Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin.”
Such a gigantic demo, man :D
I could get together a bigger demonstration than that myself, and I’m not even a politician.
Johnny’s inadvertently funny this time.
Biswapriya Purkayastha
“Johnny’s inadvertently funny this time”. That is indeed correct. He is describing something which is not happening. I pass the Parliament twice a day and see nothing. The situation is perfectly normal.
Z
“The protest in front of the parliament was really impressive”. And what “protest” was that ? You mean that riot instigated by football hooligans and backed by Western NGO’s ? And where are the protests now ? I don’t see them. As for the assertion that “la Resistance continues”, it does so only in the head of Mr. Johnny-on-the-spot. People are not even discussing what happened in front of the Parliament.
Z is obviously being sarcastic.
Biswapriya Purkayastha
I believe he was. I made that comment to underline the fact that the situation in Belgrade is perfectly normal and that nothing of the extraordinary was happening.
“… And do it in impeccable French. …”
Check-mate :-) Should our salaried trolls even think of scribbling en français while gorging on their misbegotten sandwiches, they’ll instantly choke & become mercifully extinct :-)
Thank You Johnny again, and thank You Saker too.
Another good article related to the recent events in Belgrade, and what I would like to point to (again linked to this page, namely to Saker on Serbian language – Stepski); from respectable author (scientific advisor at the Institute for European Studies) Miša Đurković:
”Turning to NATO”
http://stepskisoko.com/%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%88%D0%B0-%D1%92%D1%83%D1%80%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%9B-%D1%81%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%9A%D0%B5-%D0%BA%D0%B0-%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE/
P.S.
The author of the text is very literate and writes quite understandable, so readers that do not speak our language can obtain satisfactory correct (almost perfect), understandable Google translation.
P.S. P.S.
If anyone read Google translation, I suggest to replace ” young world that has come…” with ”young people that has come…” and ”there were anti-fascists on the street” with ”there were antifa members on the street”, and that will be enough.

“Another good article related to the recent events in Belgrade”. I only wish I knew in advance when these events were occurring, so I could see them. I have not seen them.
@Рато Мир:
so, you are thanking Johnny and Saker, and then you propose an article from Miša Đurković, which has completely different take on protests in Belgrade, and which could be characterized as opposing opinion to opinion presented here in Johnny s text, (and previous ones also).
I am lost here….
Will they get away with mandatory Covid-1984 vaccinations?
It is more than just a “popular protest” or ( hold your political-line horses, RT) a incipient color revolution, it is a fight for ethnic survival. These mandatory vaccines are toxic—this is an act of genocide. It really is a fight to the death for the Serbian people as they are the” Blacks” of Europe i.e. the ones on whom the untested injections are imposed.
Next step is that then a NATO armed Kosovo will invade a weakened Serbia!!!
Wow…#serblivesmatter….. This is like the weird morphing of the eugenics of historical Nazism into a more updated form.
thank you so much for the report – what his happening is far worse than I thought
Criminal mafia supported by international banksters about to destroy Serbia
I forwarded it to friends and family. The first 2 videos are very revealing. The new puppet ministers look like little Macron – in their suits.
If I may: They are not ministers. They are members of parliament. To me they look like Agent Smith from the Matrix.
How about this guy: https://twitter.com/Mrs_Crownix/status/1290637954747183104?s=20:
Najmlađi poslanik, Nikola Lazić (21) student Fakulteta za kulturu i medije na Megatrendu.
Zanimanje: fizioterapeutski tehničar.
Ostale mu još samo tri rate da diplomira
Translation:
The youngest member of parliament, Nikola Lazic (21) student at Megatrend University (translator: Megatrend is the epitome of corruption that is prevalent in high education in Serbia lately).
Vocation: Massage Therapist. Three REPAYMENTS () left until graduation (translator: again, ridicule upon the fact that most PhDs, University Degrees and even High School Diplomas of the previous and current ruling class in Serbia are paid for and not obtained through the process of learning).
His mother is Mrs Lazic, President’s adviser, dolled up dyed blond lady whose only qualification is exactly it – she looks OK for a middle aged lady. Serbia hits new lows every day.
However, not everything is doom and gloom. In a surprising move the current City of Belgrade administration renamed some of the streets that bore the names of ex Yugoslav Republic capitals’ violently and pathologically anti-Serb. One of those streets was given the name of Mr Blagoja Jovovic, the hero who wounded Croatian war criminal Nazi Ante Pavelic in Argentina in the 1950s. Pavelic later succumbed to the injuries. Pavelic was the president of Nazi proclaimed Croatia that was carved out from the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1941 and is responsible for murder of hundreds of thousands of mostly Serbs but also Jews and Gypsies.
There is a saying in Serbian that says: “Even a blind hen sometimes finds a grain of corn.”
you have forgot to mention collosal Monument of Stefan Nemanja (23 meters), founder of Nemanjic dynasty, which should be placed in one of Belgrade most prominent spot. 5th column in hysteria for days, that came as another blow in the nose, after renaming streets, and scraching those of titoist era…
anyway, since 1945. there is only one system in power in Serbia – “partocracy”. Starting with one communist party, then one socialis party of ex-communists, then one-block of former communists presenting themselves as democrats/liberals, then Vucic and his SNS… always one party… so, nepotism was deeply rooted into the system, and those practices remained until today. it is “communist heritage”.
For what is worth, Vucic choosed gay croat woman as Prime minister. I think she was not his choice, so he wanted to do similar to Caligula when he introduced horse to the Senat. I mean, that anyone, anything, with western backing (requesting, ordering) can be a Prime Minister of Serbia.
I have to say that the Caligula meme makes sense if not for the utter wholesale and betrayal of Kosovo and Metohija with the Brussels Agreements.
I have no problem with nepotism but it brings with it incompetence and corruption and of that we have plenty. That is why hereditary monarchy does not work. It degenerates in two generations.
I ignored Johnny’s usual speculative anti Vucic rant (how many times has he predicted the “imminent fall” of the Vucic regime?) and concentrated on his “Democracy 4 Serbia” graphic. And what I immediately noticed was that all the cities – all! – are in the countries that have always been the sources of funding, propaganda, and organisation of regime change colour revolutions. If that doesn’t raise suspicions of the bona fides of the people Johnny is championing, nothing will.
I don’t know if you missed but the color revolution already happened in 2000 and ever since then Serbia has a western puppet in control of the country. Yes Vucic is a product of that color revolution despite his nationalist past and voters, he can get away with lots of things regarding Kosovo because of his nationalist past (like handing over Serb institutions to Pristina) which his predecessors could not even dream of. Vucic is no naionalist, he is neo-liberal authoritarian globalist, a puppet.
Have a look at the people and the priests protesting, do they look like they are Soros’ kind of people? No. Have a look at the NGO that is protesting against the flag waving protestors. Do they look like they are Soros’ people? Yes. Western controlled NGO’s like Jelena Milic’ pro-NATO NGO and Cedomir Jovanovic’ LDP approve of Vucic’ policies regarding Kosovo and NATO. The western controlled NGO’s are only there to make sure Vucic full fills his promises in Brussels to handover Kosovo and implement neo-liberal policies, not to topple him, because the color revolution already happened and Vucic is the product of that.
Oh, I didn’t know that one colour revolution means that another cannot happen in future. Thanks for the information. I’ll keep in mind from now on that if there’s ever a colour revolution in a country, any other in future, even if it looks like a colour revolution, is aided, abetted and financed by known organisers of colour revolutions, and acts exactly like a colour revolution, it can’t possibly be a colour revolution. And if anyone contradicts me, I’ll say dave, lower case d, told me so. Thanks!
Oh Vucic sandwich bots are so amusing. Like they do not know in order to have second color revolution after previous you have to first have a contra-revolution. In Serbia there was no contra-revolution after color revolution in 2000. We are constantly an occupied colony from that time.
You do? It isn’t necessary for a puppet or prospective puppet simply to get out of hand and need removing to be replaced by an even more compliant puppet? Then Saddam Hussein must still be in power in Iraq.
As for implying that I’m a “Vucic sandwich not”, that’s hilarious. Thanks for the screenshot, my contacts will love that.
Saddam Hussein was not an American puppet.Americans didn’t install him in power in the first place.Yes they had common interest for some time and collaborate but when circumstances changed that ended.
You know there is a difference between temporally alliance and fully controlling a country and installing puppet who is fully loyal to his master.
I don’t know about “Saddam was not American puppet”. He did though gassed his own people with American approval. The price he had to pay – start a war with Iran. Many people died on both sides, Iraqi and Iranian, with USA supporting Saddam. Until he was not needed any more. Quite some temporary alliance. Saddam Shia Moslems against Iranian Shia moslems. I don/t see particular interest for Saddam in that, but hey, everybody has right to their opinion.
Immortalized by Eastman Kodak and their contributions for the rocket program, see http://www.uvpeaceandjustice.org/WMD_suppliers.html – number 13 on the list.
Such a lucky number.
You did not comment on why would western controlled Serbian NGOs approve of Vucic’ policies regarding NATO and Kosovo? You also did not comment why NGOs were contra-protesting the flag waving protestors. You did not explain why liberal leaders (who tried to hijack the protests) got their heads smashed by Serb flag waving protesters.
I don’t need to explain any of that because I’m not defending or supporting Vucic. I am merely pointing out that Johnny’s account is less than plausible and his own graphics prove that his Democracy 4 Serbia is based in, and only in, known colour revolution organiser countries. Let me see the anti Vucic demos in Moscow or St Petersburg before I give Johnny the slightest credibility.
@Biswapriya Purkayastha You do not need to explain when you are wrong, you would make a great debater LOL. Why would Russian citizens in Moscow stage protests about Serbian internal politics?! Newsflash, even Dodik hates Vucic to the core, it is only that he has to respect him because he is the president of a brotherly nation that is also a Dayton signator. If you cannot see that Vucic is the biggest traitor who has surrendered Northern Kosovo over to Pristina, de facto recognized Kosovo and is also inviting a Gay World Pride in Serbia, then something is wrong with you. Vucic is willing to join the EU at all costs even betrayal which his liberal predecessor would not even have dreamt of.
I hate when I have to defend Vucic, but he is, in my mind, lesser Evil than 5th column… What if Vucic did all those things in order not to officially recognize Kosovo, but to buy time? What if he concluded that Gay parade and Gay prime minister was lesser evil, so he could reduce pressure about Kosovo from USA “deep state”? What if all those moves were made so he could have some time and space to do other things – re-arm Serbia, strengthen ties with China and Russia, make effort to build up destroyed economy, build much needed highways, bridges, all those things that would be, in other case, not considered at all (2000-2012).
spot on. I am trully amazed that you can see through this protests… let me add an info – banners are written in latin script (croatian), not in cyrilic script (serbs)… it is a kind of “trademark” of all anti serbs, “serbs by chace”, “former serbs”, people who, in the name of progress, humanity, internationalism, fashion (!), discard serb culture, tradition, history and cyrilic script, because it is not “european” enough….
“There is a price to be paid for non-conformist thinking and behaviour in today’s Serbia. ”
And not only in Serbia. There is always a price to be paid; that is the message of The Cross. It is no coincidence that NATZO crowned its aktzion against Serbia by destroying churches in Kosovo.
“For we wrestle not only against flesh and blood but against Powers and Principalities in the Heavens” — St.Paul
I do not understand the Serbs.
They had possibility to vote – and they maximally avoided this possibility. (60% people did not voted at all!)
Why?
Many Serbs said: “Because I had nobody to vote… The “opposition” politicians are worse that Vucic … ” and so on…
…
And now – when Vucic wan (fraudulently or not) – there are mass protests!!!
What were you doing before voting?
Isn’t it better to vote for an ordinary ass than to not vote at all, and then when you are dissatisfied to ask for a change of government????
And besides – in my opinion – that people used common sense and logic at least a little – they had the opportunity to vote for the original people who love Serbia and oppose the compulsory vaccines (for Covid hoax) and chip of Bill Gates.
Now – it is too late.
Serbs are more clever then you think. We know that the system is rigged. We know that voting changes nothing when you are occupied, besides who gets to collaborate with occupiers and reaps some benefit for himself from that activity.
You see when you are occupied you do not vote you resist, demonstrate and show civil disobidence.
When the problem is whole system, it doesn’t mater who governs it and sits in the government, who is president.
By the way I didn’t vote to , but I sure as hell was there when protests started.
Incorrect!
Turnout was 48.8%, meaning that 51.2% did not vote.
Are those the official numbers? Who cares for those? HeLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?
Anyone living in Serbia with half a brain knows the turnout was much lower than that.
Even with the machinery working overtime to make everyone and anyone alive or not vote. I myself, personally, know of a demented elderly lady who was chaperoned to vote. You think she has any idea what shes voting for? She doesnt very well know where she is, or what day it is.
Now multiply that and similar situations by several hundred thousand. Add the people who vote because they want to keep their job. And voila, you get prostitutes and waiters in parliament.
You think the Serbian people will forgive or forget this? Think again.
Vojin,
Yes, these are official numbers confirmed by election observers.
There is no reason to ‘caps lock’ on this forum. Instead! Please, picking out some old lady as an example, does not seem convincing at all.
Oh and I forgot in my previous comment, thats me not even going into falsified election ballot records and a whole plethora of other irregularities.
You think this ‘parliament’ will last long? Think again.
Thing will get ugly. Very ugly.
The number is false of course like in many previous elections even before Vucic. Voting lists are full of irregularities and even dead people from good knows when , then there is documented multiple voting of same persons on same or different voting posts and so on.
For the election observers , that are the same ones who organized first color revolution i 2000.
P.S. O didn’t I say that most of the observers are from NATO countries.
Mass protests?
I’m less than convinced that those twenty or thirty people in Johnny’s video comprise a “mass protest”.
“mass protest” according to Johnny, VoA, CNN, and others…. just visit #democracy4serbia, it is all clearly another western manipulation….
@Marko on the spot, the protest itself was laughably small. So much about the general opinion of Serbian society agreeing with your assessment of situation in Serbia.
That Srdjan Nogo guy is highly problematic and deserves to have an article of his own to simply list everything he actually did, no suspicions – deeds.
Although I empathize with the woman and her plight, one could understand my scepticism because she didn’t show that fine which she was allegedly given. It’s only a claim, you might as well bring someone saying that Superman was there 5 minutes ago. Same credibility at this moment.
As for Vučić recognizing Kosovo and Metohija as independent state, although I have no love for him, you only make assertions. What’s worse is that you make them appear as facts, which it is not!
I have a friend from faculty who became an MP in this election, no mention of your fantasies about betrayal.
We are hearing about that impending betrayal for over 7 years by now and it is reminding of Godot which somehow never appears.
Please, I am begging you, stop trashing my country. Stop normalizing the expectation that Kosovo and Metohija will be betrayed.
If that happens Vučić will be dealt with not by whiners like those in front of Parliament, he will be dealt with and that possible recognition would be annulled.
We have been hearing that Milošević was a “Butcher of the Balkans”, we all saw how that turned out.
You are doing the same.
6th columnist at play here.
Please, stop trashing my country with your disinformation.
It is too late I am afraid. The fact there wasnt a more energetic reaction to this mock parliament hmm, dont let it fool you. What happens next is most probably very, very ugly. Extremely ugly. Vucic does not have the fortitude to resist his employers demands. I dont think he even particularly has the inclination to. But anyway.
As for all of the ‘people’ who benefit materially and in other worldly ways form the garage sale of national interests and resources, including the sale into bondage basically of their own compatriots, and think themselves smart for it – Newsflash, you dont need to be smart to be a sell out, you just need to be a piece of excrement, which is what they are. They will get their infernal due. Everyone does.
@Borce1990
”Your country” is not only Yours. Period.
Same country belongs to bunch of us here, equally.
So as have You, equally we have right to be concerned for the same country, at list. To fight for it, if necessary.
Specially we, we born minimum decade before ”1990”; we who used to spill blood for it. We have more than right. We are obliged to.
Furthermore, some of you instantly repeat the same phrase those days: ”As for Vučić recognizing Kosovo and Metohija as independent state, … you only make assertions”…
Well, that ”assertion” is not based on illusions but facts; facts many times repeated on this blog and other places, but facts You and alike’s do not want to hear, son.
Brussels surrender for example, Telecom and other institutions fallowed with artificial border (but real border crossings), maltreatment of ”the rest of the rest” of Serbs to participate in false elections of false narco state and its false institutions too…
And, what to say about his capitulatory statements regarding the same problem?!
It is not about sport game< game where we can bet on one or the other option.
Because, Yours ''If he recognize'' is not comparable with ''if he does not''. Not comparable at all.
Because, if there is even slightest possibility that ''he does recognize'' or ''he would…'', well in that case he should be stopped in time.
Stopped by all means. I mean it, exactly ''by all (or any) means''.
And, not only him, but all other ''useful idiots'' and quislings, if necessary, too.
Nothing personally, it is just because of unacceptable price; because after such disastrous event, even his ''head on plate'' worth to me (to us) nothing.
Equally as would worth nothing your own, or of any other ''useful idiot''.
Because, damage would be irreparable then, and there is nothing on this world to be offered for satisfaction.
P.S.
Responsibilities of the president of the Republic are:
– to propose to the National Assembly the candidate for Prime Minister
– Returning the law to retrial
– Dissolution of the National Assembly
– to issue decrees, decisions, rules, orders and other legal acts determined by law
– appoints and recalls by decree the Ambassador of the Republic of Serbia on the basis of a proposal of the Government,
– receives credentials and revocation letters from foreign diplomatic representatives
– grants abolition, appoints the Secretary-General…
– appoints, promotes and dismisses officers of the Serbian Army.
By the very same constitution, ''foreign policy'' belongs to government.
Period.
@Радо Мир
I am glad that you noticed part about only my country, now please act in same manner and tell Marko on the spot that he is not the only person living in Serbia and that his views don’t reflect the vast majority of the population.
I don’t know the level of your political literacy. I was observer in previous elections. No theft was present, I unsealed boxes and counted them. Vučić has large support in population and you must admit that simple fact to yourself! Don’t act like a child which doesn’t like some outcome.
Stop with disrespecting popular will, I didn’t vote for Vučić, I was writing manifestos against him during his first years when he was defense minister/PPV and after that prime Minister. I was doing that on faculty on classes. Many professors and assistants were far more vocal.
I never experienced one discomfort because of that, nor did they.
Compare that experience with warm rabbit I have to endure in here. My IP address was banned on this site yesterday because I disagree with one author.
Let that sink in.
I agree with most of your points, they are truthful. Also I consider them irrelevant. You showed no evidence and presented immaturity in the entire subject of Kosovo and Metohija. My family was forced to move out from Gnjilane in 1984 because of Shqiptar threats.
Even if Vučić recognizes Kosovo and Metohija as independent state, the West wouldn’t know what to do with it because of all implications which that would bring.
Yes, they are repeating that Serbia should recognize, but silently they wish we don’t. Russians showed them glimpse of implications when they cited ICJ ruling regarding Kosovo when Crimea was reclaimed.
That was just an example.
If Serbia recognizes, Russia can veto and that would be it. Yes, they would have untenable position, but they wouldn’t give 2 cents for that when it comes to their interests.
Vučić would hang on around on a pole and Serbia would have new government which would revoke recognition.
What you are doing is making Serbia’s position more difficult in these troubled times. Instead of wasting energy on impending betrayal (which is about to happen, just wait and see it) for 7 years, you should focus it on improving state of our society. By empowering our country Serbia can regain hold.
It’s the power of the state that counts, not Vučić and his imaginary betrayal.
Don’t waste your time on fantasies of betrayal, focus on your own environment. We’ll deal with betrayal if it happens. Don’t normalize that in public discourse. By speaking about it, eventually people will get to expect it, thus you have normalized it in Overtone window. Reaction would be softer, instead of harsh reaction which would have harsh consequences for actual traitors.
I hope you understand why I want you all to stop with taking this approach to subject.
Borce1990
In an earlier message, you say the 6th Column is at work here. I think you hit the nail on the head.
5th Columns exist in all countries, but they keep their heads down and deny they are traitors. The Serbian 5th Column are proud of their traitorous activities and have, or hope to have, well-paid jobs at foreign NGOs. These people are hated by the Serbian public and, arguably, have little more to offer their foreign paymasters.
Arise the 6th Column! The 6th Column are “Serbian Patriots.” They pretend to defend Serbian interests but do so not by fighting foreign Powers who occupy Kosovo and Bosnia and who continue to threaten Serbia. No, these “Patriots” use their energies to attack the Serbian State and its institutions. For example, in a co-ordinated campaign organised across Europe, these “Patriots” protested outside Serbian embassies to condemn Vucic for winning the election and for planning to surrender Kosovo. Why weren’t they protesting in front of the American, British, and German embassies since that is from there the threat to Kosovo arises?
The 6th Column has the same master as the 5th Column but they dress in šajkača and opanke and wrap themselves in the Serbian flag. They are, however, not difficult to identify. They always conclude that all Serbia’s problems are of its own making.
@Borce1990 Newsflash for you you: Vucic already recognized de facto independence of Kosovo, he surrendered Kosovo Serbs over to Pristina, only thing that is left is for Vucic to do is not to block UN membership for Kosovo, actually he is not blocking the UN membership, it is Russia that is blocking UN membership for Kosovo despite what Vucic’ wishes are So it is the Russians who are sabotaging Vucic and his dreams of joining the EU at all costs LOL.
that is nice, just wanna know why west insists on Serbian recognition of “Kosovo”? If he had surrendered Kosovo, why all that pressure, including these “protests”, which were bought and payed by Western NGO, including those few around foreign cities… An overwhelming majority of Serbs living in those countries were upset last few days, since they do not want to support such protests!
note to commentator … please read moderation rule prohibiting the use of caps … mod
What a twisted logic at play here.
It’s in the same line with one comment I read above.
It says how Vučić is supported by the likes of Jelena Milić and Čeda Jovanović, however it makes no mention how Vučić is vastly supported by population which would not allow betrayal. That means that if Vučić betrays, those people would be against it, therefore Vučić losses power since his support would shrink to potential 10% or less.
I don’t see any logic in not mentioning that small fact, unless you are targeting exactly that sentiment in that population so you would force Vučić into having a base in those 10% or less which would be indifferent towards the fate of Kosovo and Metohija.
Your reasoning made logical leap by somehow pitting Vučić against Moscow, because you proved your allegation that Vučić already betrayed how exactly?
I think that Saker has all of you here for his research of how 6th column works.
You think there are no parallels between your rhetoric and the rhetoric of those that performed coup in March of 1941?
I see exact same replica.
Say my regards to the Queen.
this text supports serbophobes and anti-serbs…. because they are organizers of anti Vučić protests in foreign countries… Ask anyone of them if “Kosovo is Serbia” and they will answer firmly “no”. Ask them if Srebrenica is genocide, and you will get firm “yes”. Those two questions are a kind of test for Serbs…I am deeply dissapointed….
for Gods sake those people have banners written in latin script, Serbs use cyrilic script!!!! And banners were printed with quality, which is pricey…. anti-serbs hate cyrilic script, really really hate, and one of ways to recognize them is if they have quality banners (because West is paying them, so they have money)… You will not see a Serb nationalist with latin script, and banners are in most cases written on piece of cardboard or white cloth…
again Johnny on the spot at Saker…. Saker supports antiserb western color revolutionaries… I mean, yeah, it was started by “patriots”, but soon after ngo mafia crowled out, and took over, and protests died off…. there are no protests for weeks…. so ngo mafia made a move, wanting to capitalize on stolen protests, wanted to “represent” protesters, so they organized “Democracy 4 Serbia”. Patriots would never use that slogan, ever….
The amount of high treason that was done by traitors vučić and tadić:

questions for Saker:
where in the world patriots go around western cities and ask for “Democracy 4 Serbia”? (patriots usually protest in their fatherland, and banners have “Down with Traitor” and similar slogans.)
why would “Serb patriots” use banners written in croatian latin script, instead of serbian cyrilic script?
why all those “patriots” these days rant at Vucic because of immenent arrival of Monument to King Stefan Nemanja?
so naive…..
Because they are protesting in western countries. Of course they are going to write slogans “Democracy 4 Serbia” because most of the western public opinion is precondition to react positively to the word Democracy.
They are trying to win support for cause from it.If they wrote “Down with Traitor” , they would be instantly labeled as Nazi , I mean come on most of the western populace is brainwashed by mainstream media.
@Neko:
Liar, liar…. if they are true patriots they would have “Kosovo is Serbia” banner!!!! That banner follows Serb patriots everywhere and in every occasion.
Why would “Serb patriots” turn to Western European public for support? The same lot which was demonising Serbs for over a century, and still do!? The same barbaric horde which have bombed Serbs to occupy part of its territory, and hold it for 20 years?
What would be a purpose of alarming Western Public by “Serb patriots”? Lacking of democracy in Serbia? Or, another “1999. NATO bombing into democracy” like scenario…?
Have a nice NATO/USAID hamburger, I hope (Removed insult,MOD).
Because they are residing currently there. If you live in for example in Germany , you are not going buy a ticket for antartica and protest there.
You are going to try win local support in place of your residence , and you must take into account local peculiarities and preferences in order to craft marketing message , with most impact for your cause.
It looks like Vucic and SNS sandwich bots are in full force here today.
@Neko
Are you aware that you talking about few people, up to 10-15, among hundreds of thousands of Serb emigrants. Are you aware that huge number of Serb emigrants from those countries write daily that they do not want to have anything with those (staged) “protests of diaspora”!
What one is going to do with support he/she won in, say, Netherlands? Pressure from Government of Netherlands that Vucic has to step down? What else? Sanctions against Serbia so he steps down? Well, thank you very much diaspora, for another set of sanctions, but – no, thanks!
What are they actually doing – legitimize NATO to take action against Serbia! That is what they doing! They internationalize their inability to recognize that they had lost elections. They ask foreigners to “give them power”, when Serbian people choosed not to do it! How can Netherlands, Germany, etc. do so? By aggression, and only aggression.
You can have a Big Mac now…
I didn’t say there strategy wasn’t futile from very beginning, I my opinion it was.
I am just saying that they have the most correct marketing message for intended audience in scope of there strategy.
The language of this article carries a strong footprint of NGO’s, currently active across many continents. NGO’s directives come from the same address that sent NATO bombs to the Serbian territories over the last 30 years. Deposing Pres. Vucic, would be a step towards destabilization, and another abyss for the Serbs.

the whole anti-Vucic narrative is based on contraversial rumor that “he promissed to gave up Kosovo” to gain power.
maybe he did so. maybe there was no other way for patriots to gain power, but to lie to western powers that he is willing to “recognise Kosovo”
but, 8 years on, Vucic still did not do it?
yes, he signed infamous “Bruxeless aggreement” but, contrary to colored revolutionaries claims, it is not formal recognition. If it was, Kosovo would have been member of UN long ago… If it was, no Western representatives would repeat that Serbia needs to recognize Kosovo.
If Kosovo is recognized, it should became NATO member instantly. But, that did not happen.
another point of narrative is Vucic ties to Soros, actually to his ties to “deep state”. What if he made those ties, and obviously let soros gender ideologies, presented (dictated!) through NGOs, only to neutralize pressure from that part of Serb enemies… to give them somethin to chew on (gay lesbian croat Prime Minister), gaining precious time of piece for Serbia to recover.
I seriously doubt in possibility of Vucic recognizing Kosovo independence… He lied to them. Lying is something he is expert in.
@Beograđanin
Exactly. They all vehemently claim how Vučić is pathological liar, somehow they omit a that small thing that should be lying to westerners according to their narrative.
They are not naive, observe how they write their sentences, there are 2,maybe 3 persons writing under different nicknames and they all agree with with each other.
