Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić said in Leskovac, during a conversation with citizens, that he had “learned a lesson” from the protests in Serbia and that he would ask all state bodies to react at any moment and in any place.
“Those who do not do so will be replaced. Those police officers who do not want to protect order and the law will be replaced, those prosecutors who do not want to protect order and the law will be replaced,” Vučić told the citizens he was talking to at the National Theater in Leskovac, writes N1.
He once again repeated that everything that is happening is the result of a colored revolution.
Demonstrators gathered near the theater, protesting Vučić’s visit to Leskovac. They were stopped by a police cordon on the way to the theater, and the gathered people shouted “go away” and “pump, pump.”
Citizens of Leskovac who initially started a protest walk due to the dismissal of their fellow citizen from the Pension and Disability Insurance Fund after he supported the students, came to the building of the National Theater where President Aleksandar Vučić is holding a conversation with citizens. A police cordon prevented citizens from approaching the theater. As N1 learns, a professor at the Gymnasium, Dejan Stanišić, who tried to break through the cordon and enter the theater building, was detained.

Marinković spoke with Dejan Stojanović, a resident of Leskovac, who wanted to enter the theater and address the president, but was not allowed to enter because he did not have an invitation.
“Last year on November 26, I addressed the president’s office, to which I received a response. All possible inspectors came, the Center for Social Work, they helped me. I came here just to thank you, nothing special. Today I came to the door, there was no crowd, there was private security. Žarko Bogatinović, a municipal councilor, told the security that entry was forbidden for me. A member of security asked me if I had an invitation, I said I didn’t and he asked me to leave,” Stojanović told N1.
According to unofficial information, during the president’s visit to Lebane, one of the high officials of SRCE from Leskovac was detained.
