EP about Jovanjica, Krušik and Telekom, says EWB editor: it is important that they are mentioned

The agricultural farm of Stara Pazova in Brussels will also be discussed. But not for organic production. MEPs will decide whether Jovanjic’s ownership, in the next report on Serbia, could be flagged as an issue. Along with Jovanjica, Krusik and Telekom will also be mentioned, three scandals involving people from the Serbian government as well. The European Union is sending an invitation to investigate everything, but the question is whether a sufficient number of MEPs will support the member of the report in which that proposal is found.

The news that the Court of Appeal has confirmed the indictment against the defendants for the production of narcotics in Jovanjica, by this Miroslav Aleksić, would be a sign that the people of the judiciary are doing their job honestly. But it says in another state. Since he lives in Serbia, he wonders what is behind the quick reaction of the court in this case.

“The case reached the Appeal on March 2 and was confirmed in less than ten days. “Perhaps this speed of confirmation is precisely because Jovanjica might not be in the European Union report,” asks Aleksic.

A month ago, Jovanjica, Krusik and Telekom entered the draft of that report practically through a small door, through amendments. At the last minute, before the session of the European Parliament, the deputies of the European People’s Party ask that a deputy who talks about these scandals “vote by parts”.

“As we know, the Serbian Progressive Party is an associate member of the PPE. So it seems to me that in this case, the PPE wants to balance this text much more and exclude certain parts of the text,” says Nemanja Todorović Štiplija of the EWB portal.

Actually, the parts can be just one sentence. But, with three scandals in it, which the foreign minister does not see as such. For him, Jovanjica is just a court case.

“It is very interesting that there are other politically interesting things that the European Parliament does not point out. “When you said scandals, you have everything that is happening with the representatives of the old regimes and with their accounts in foreign currency and with millions of euros in different countries of the world,” Minister Nikola Selaković told RTV.

The result of the vote on these three that are now mentioned, the editor of the European portal of the Western Balkans cannot predict. Remember that there is a narrow majority between the Members of the European People’s Party and the Socialists, Greens and Liberals. The chances that the member of the scandals remain in the text are possible, if the deputies of the Popular Party vote according to their conscience. And there are.

“And who are aware of the situation in Serbia, first of all I speak of parliamentarians who come from countries that are going through the same things that Serbia is going through, challenges and states of democracy like Poland,” he says.

Whatever the outcome, both sides will consider this a victory, adds Stiplija. And for Serbia, it is very important that these cases are mentioned for the first time in a European document, he says. So significant that it will also be debated in the Serbian parliament.
