The statement of the Minister of Police Aleksandar Vulin is a relic of the 1990s and it says what President Aleksandar Vučić does not want to say – Danas’ interlocutors believe, commenting on the request of the Minister at the head of the Ministry of the Interior to ban those who voted in the Parliament of Montenegro Resolution on the Srebrenica genocide.
“President Vučić is not a man who bans, but I will ask him to ban those who voted for the resolution from entering Serbia. Let them see their families well distributed in Belgrade, in Montenegro”, reads Vulin's statement, which was transmitted by the Beta agency.
Aris Movsesian, the president of the New Party, says that the rhetoric used by Minister Vulin is familiar to him from the 1990s. He points out that even then, that arrogant behavior that leads to the demolition of bridges that must be crossed tomorrow, did not bring anything good.
“Basically, who cares what Vulin says?” The problem is who even thought of putting him in such an important place, where his words are heard so much. He understands politics as a costumed show anyway, because as he changes the ministry assigned to him, so he changes the costume in which he appears in front of the camera”, states Movsesian.
Predrag Voštinić from the Kraljevo Local Front estimates that Vulin plays the role he got in power quite well, and that he finally had to incite and inflame conflicts, rummaging through regional emotions and nationalisms in order to open space for an “all-Serbian savior”.
“The savior appears either as a winner, as a detonator, an angry negotiator, and when necessary with” wise “solutions and reassuring messages. That role, which the “mini-star” has long fought with others in the ruling masses, is a bridge to pseudo-patriotic voters to whom the “European” president could not address directly. Especially not with the language that this man uses without any restraint. His costume designer is also solid because the black uniforms covered the purpose of the role quite well. After all, what we as a society have not condemned and banned will always return to our regular offer through various scenarios and actors. Their roles are simple, but they are not simple and meaningless – Voštinić points out.
Zoran Vuletic, the first man of the Civic Democratic Forum, believes that Vucic obviously has the biggest problem with his war past because, according to him, how would we interpret the statements of his stronger and spokesman Vulin, who proposes to ban all Montenegrin MPs who voted for resolution on the genocide in Srebrenica entry into Serbia.
“They are thus defending their policy from the 1990s, which led to such horrific epilogues as today's resolution in Montenegro or the resolution in the Serbian parliament from 2010, when our parliament did not have the strength to use the wording genocide as the court ruled. in The Hague. I must say that I did not expect anything else from Vulin and Vučić. At the end of his career, Vučić will be remembered as a political coward aware of the problems in which Serbia is and the times we live in, and with the constant convincing support of the people for ten years in all elections, desperate results, unresolved crucial problems of society and growing xenophobia. The results of his policy will be his nightmare. I am much more worried about the silence of the part of the opposition around the former SZS on this topic, which has the support of all media, and which are presented as the main alternative to Vučić. We need a political change, not a personal one, which is offered in silence”, says Vuletić.
The Parliament of Montenegro adopted the Resolution on Srebrenica on Thursday, while the Minister of Human and Minority Rights, Vladimir Leposavic, was removed at the suggestion of the Prime Minister of Montenegro, Zdravko Krivokapic, due to statements in which he relativized the genocide in Srebrenica.
