Dveri Movement

BELGRADE - The leaders of four opposition parties in the Serbian parliament said at a joint press conference on Tuesday an EU proposal for resolving the Kosovo-Metohija issue must be rejected as it envisioned a secession of Serbia's southern province.

Fascism will not pass, President Aleksandar Vucic said.

Protests against Serbia's President Aleksander Vucic continue, and tensions escalate. On Sunday, protesters tried to enter the presidency during a demonstration provoked by Vucic. They broke through the defensive fence and reached the entrance to the building of the Serbian presidency, Tanjug reported, quoted by BTA.

They said that starting on Monday, they would be present in the parliament building and hold press conferences but would not participate in the plenum debate.

Public broadcaster RTS reported this earlier.

According to initial information, they are members of the opposition Dveri Movement.

Due to the scene causing great disturbance among the public, the police yesterday announced an intensive search for the persons in question.

According to the Faktor Plus poll, the Socialists (SPS), also members of the ruling coalition - would receive 9.4 percent - and these would be the only two parties to cross the five-percent threshold and gain seats in the National Assembly.

This is according to Gennady Sisoyev, a correspondent for Russian daily Kommersant, who spoke for Beta agency.

Sisoyev said that one of Lavrov's key messages was that Serbia is not threatened by "Ukrainization" - that is, destabilization and civil unrest as a result of being forced to choose between Russia and the EU - "as long as current political forces are in power."

The poll, presented on December 6, also showed that the ruling coalition led by President Aleksandar Vucic's SNS party - without the Socialists (SPS) - would win 39 percent of the vote.

If the SPS participated alone, it could count on 5.9 percent, according to the survey.

An incident occurred on Tuesday in Belgrade, during a session of the Serbian National Assembly's Committee on Administrative Issues.

Bosko Obradovic, who heads the group of people's deputies (members of the Serbian Assembly) from the opposition Dveri Movement, threw a computer mouse at the Committee's chairman, Aleksandar Martinovic of the ruling SNS.

If elections for Serbia's National Assembly were held this week, 52.1 percent of citizens would vote for the ruling Serb Progressives (SNS).

This is according to the latest poll conducted by the Ninamedia agency.
