We firmly rejected this demand. Serbian associations are not party branches, and the votes of our compatriots are not for sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-serbiantimes-info wp-block-embed-serbiantimes-info\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"qhJENeEioI\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/krivicna-prijava-protiv-vucica-zbog-kosova-bivseg-predsednika-srbije-terete-za-ugrozavanje-teritorijalne-celine-prihvatanjem-sporazuma-sa-pristinom\/\">PODNETA KRIVI\u010cNA PRIJAVA PROTIV VU\u010cI\u0106A: Biv\u0161eg predsednika Srbije terete da je prihvatanjem sporazuma sa Pri\u0161tinom ugrozio teritorijalnu celinu zemlje!<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201ePODNETA KRIVI\u010cNA PRIJAVA PROTIV VU\u010cI\u0106A: Biv\u0161eg predsednika Srbije terete da je prihvatanjem sporazuma sa Pri\u0161tinom ugrozio teritorijalnu celinu zemlje!\u201c \u2014 Serbiantimes.info\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/krivicna-prijava-protiv-vucica-zbog-kosova-bivseg-predsednika-srbije-terete-za-ugrozavanje-teritorijalne-celine-prihvatanjem-sporazuma-sa-pristinom\/embed\/#?secret=aQvn8RwUtp#?secret=qhJENeEioI\" data-secret=\"qhJENeEioI\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of particular concern is also the case involving a \u20ac30,000 donation made by the Belgrade-based company T&amp;M Solutions to the Association of Serbian Societies in Slovenia (SSDS), with the intention of distributing the money and transferring it to the accounts of Serbian associations throughout Slovenia. An additional payment of \u20ac30,000 had also been announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the information available to us, these funds never reached the associations for which they were intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taking into account Milinko \u0160pica&#8217;s conduct to date and the circumstances surrounding this donation, we have serious reasons to suspect that the money was handled by \u0160pica himself, or that he appropriated funds intended for Serbian associations. We demand an urgent investigation into the flow of money and accountability for its handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We consider it particularly unacceptable that a diplomatic representative of the Republic of Serbia, instead of assisting the Serbian community, should be involved in securing votes for a political party and managing money intended for its associations. A consul represents the state of Serbia, not any political party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We demand that the relevant institutions investigate Milinko \u0160pica&#8217;s conduct, the circumstances surrounding the offer of money in exchange for votes, and the handling of the \u20ac30,000 donation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Serbs in Slovenia are nobody&#8217;s electoral quota, their associations are not party branches, and their political will is not for sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-serbiantimes-info wp-block-embed-serbiantimes-info\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"iRzcgB7Rzq\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/nema-vise-nedodirljivih-izdat-nalog-za-hapsenje-vlasnika-milenijum-tima-zbog-nelegalnog-rusenja-i-gradnje-na-mestu-hotela-jugoslavija\/\">NEMA VI\u0160E NEDODIRLJIVIH: Izdat nalog za hap\u0161enje vlasnika Milenijum tima zbog gra\u0111enja bez gra\u0111evinske dozvole na mestu hotela \u201eJugoslavija\u201c!<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201eNEMA VI\u0160E NEDODIRLJIVIH: Izdat nalog za hap\u0161enje vlasnika Milenijum tima zbog gra\u0111enja bez gra\u0111evinske dozvole na mestu hotela \u201eJugoslavija\u201c!\u201c \u2014 Serbiantimes.info\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/nema-vise-nedodirljivih-izdat-nalog-za-hapsenje-vlasnika-milenijum-tima-zbog-nelegalnog-rusenja-i-gradnje-na-mestu-hotela-jugoslavija\/embed\/#?secret=dhyCa6S6oH#?secret=iRzcgB7Rzq\" data-secret=\"iRzcgB7Rzq\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our commitment to our homeland, Serbia, remains unquestionable.
