FROM THUGS AND TRAITORS TO TERRORISTS: This is how Vučić spoke about those he is now inviting to a dialogue!

There are no negotiations with terrorists and those who wanted to destroy the state, it was written on the official X account of the Serbian Progressive Party on July 9. However, yesterday, President Aleksandar Vučić once again invited representatives of the student movement to a dialogue, even though he considers them terrorists with whom there are no negotiations.

At the very beginning of the student protests, specifically on December 21 of last year, when students came in front of the Presidency where the President of the Republic was holding a press conference, he said one, now already an anthology-worthy sentence, writes Danas.

“Should I go out and insult them, should I go out and fight, should I bring out the ‘Cobras’ to scatter them all, it wouldn’t take six or seven seconds.”

On Wednesday, August 13 of this year, the Cobras clashed with citizens in Novi Sad, but they did not scatter anyone; instead, members of this unit, by sheer luck, only sustained minor injuries.

Over the last three and a half months, the President of Serbia has been “treating” students and citizens to various names, while categorically refusing demands for snap elections and any kind of dialogue.

Is it even realistic for those whom Vučić accused of being destroyers of the state, called foreign mercenaries, thugs carrying out a “color revolution,” to now sit with him at the same table and talk about anything?

Is it possible for the same table to include a female student whose jaw was broken by four SNS activists in Novi Sad, whom Vučić personally pardoned.

“Freedom to the heroes! Nikola Blagojević, Danilo Raičević, Stefan Kojović, Nemanja Despotović. Prison to the blockader terrorists,” Vučić wrote on his Instagram profile on May 20.

Before this post, at an SNS rally in Niš on May 17, Vučić told the students that he “doesn’t care about their elections” and that it’s “a done deal.”

Before the Vidovdan protest, at which students gave Vučić an ultimatum to call elections, he replied: “The Serbian state has been faced with ultimatums from foreign great powers many times. This time, too, foreign powers have sent us an ultimatum through domestic puppets. The Serbian state’s answer has always been the same. Serbia is not a handful of millet for you to peck at. The ultimatum was not accepted, you don’t have to wait until tomorrow at 9 PM.”

The day after the Vidovdan protest, Vučić said that unspecified “foreign powers” were behind the protest and that the police should be restrained, but he warned that violence would not be tolerated.

“The state will be defended, and the thugs will face justice,” he said.

Just five days ago, after a series of demonstrations organized by students, which led to conflicts with activists of that party, as well as with the police, the president announced a decisive state reaction.

“It’s a matter of days until someone gets killed… Who they’ve decided to kill tonight… I’m just afraid someone will get killed… There’s nothing left for them but to start killing people.”

He then announced “the final response of the state.”

“For the next 3-4 days, it will seem to you that we, as a state, have stepped aside and withdrawn… Six, seven days… At one point, you will see all of Serbia’s resolve; we will use everything at our disposal.”

However, last night he once again invited them to a dialogue, even though his proposal from the day before yesterday was rejected by everyone.
