Brnabic: Parliament session in about ten days, I would prefer a new government over elections

"It depends on many things—on the situation in society, the level of tensions, on consultations with the executive power about whether some bills already in process, which are important for citizens, such as the law on affordable housing loans for young people, should be discussed at the session," said Brnabic.

The Speaker of the Parliament hopes that the session, when it is held, “will be decent” and that it will pass in a “civilized, parliamentary” atmosphere.

Brnabic says she is always in favor of dialogue with representatives of parliamentary groups and, in that regard, is for holding a collegium of the National Assembly.

She said that she would prefer the election of a new government because she believes that early parliamentary elections are not necessary at this time.

“Except in the part that we see on the streets, that the parliamentary opposition has lost all legitimacy and that, in that sense, it is good for the parliament to have people who truly represent someone. I deeply believe that the opposition in the parliament no longer represents anyone,” Brnabic said.

She noted that on the streets there is an extra-institutional struggle, which is a problem for any democracy and its citizens.

In response to the question of whether she would accept to once again take the helm of the executive branch in the country, Brnabic said that she had not thought about it.

“I don’t think this is the moment to think about it. I think that each of us must do our job as well as possible because there are many challenges. We need to find a way to establish dialogue,” said Brnabic.

The National Assembly, as the highest representative and legislative body, must play a significant role in this regard, emphasized Brnabic, adding that the debate must return to institutions.

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, stated that in the next 10 to 12 days, the resignation of the government and its president, Milos Vucevic, should be acknowledged, meaning that from February 17 or 18, the 30-day deadline for forming a new government or calling elections begins.

The resignation of the prime minister arrived in the Serbian Parliament three days ago. As a reminder, on January 28, he submitted an irrevocable resignation after students in Novi Sad were attacked during a blockade.
