For Information Minister Boris Bratina, “outposts of foreign agencies” are media that criticize the regime of Aleksandar Vučić. The progressive regime is being completely dismantled
Minister of Information and Telecommunications of Serbia Boris Bratina he stated that the journalists of N1 and TV Nova work as “outposts of foreign agencies”, and that Radio Free Europe (RSE) is particularly dangerous because of its “anti-Serbian program”.
“It’s like they’ve ostracized themselves from everything, the place we live in. We’re a second-rate world, and they’re a first-rate world… They’re acting low, and then all N1, any of them do, is trying to be more Catholic than the Pope,” Bratina told TV Pink, whatever that means.
So he continued in the same tone: N1 and Nova S “spit on Serbia, the people and the president”, and N1 and RSE “definitely should be removed from the air” – and not, say, TV Informer.
Bratina claims that the journalists of N1 have a “less sense of conscience”, “because they are now deep in the game”, so every day they “fill” the public space with “new lies”.
The smell of the nineties
As the government crisis deepens, Vojislav Šešelj, the Chetnik duke and political spiritual father of Aleksandar Vučić, is more and more often a guest on regime television, and the speech of the government representative increasingly resembles the radical one from the 1990s. There is a kind of sheseljization of the progressive regime at work, that is, the solution of the Serbian Progressive Party, which emerged from the voivodeship of the Serbian Radical Party.
And the idea of a tent settlement in Pionirski Park and in the middle of Kralja Aleksandar Boulevard in front of the National Assembly as a paramilitary base for dealing with dissidents of the regime is entirely in the spirit of the original Seselj radicals.
