It is no accident that the country’s key magnates sat for weeks before forming the government and decided who would be the key ministers, who would be the directors of the largest companies, who would take care of the most important issues and what the policy would be. Only then did they inform the leadership of the Democratic Party, which according to their dictates, elected officials, ministers and directors who, above all, liked the magnates. After the elections of those who essentially ruled Serbia, we had tragicomic performances in which they were placed in positions of formal leadership in the country.
What was Serbia like then in the eyes of retirees, with pensions of 12, 14 and 15 thousand dinars? How did Serbia see itself in the eyes of workers whose minimum wages were so high that they could not buy even a third of the consumer basket? What was Serbia like in the eyes of those people who lost hundreds of thousands of jobs and whose factories, which were bought by their grandparents and parents, were closed? And what was Serbia like in the eyes of those who take care of our health, in the eyes of doctors with salaries of 55 thousand dinars? They remember very well. And all these people are deeply concerned when they only think that those times could return, that is, that people like Dragan Djilas, Borko Stefanovic, Vuk Jeremic, Boris Tadic and the like are leading Serbia. Because, that would mean that the tycoons are ruling Serbia again. Those who took hundreds of millions of euros and left Serbia poorer every day. These are people who have always been guided by the motto “the worse for Serbia, the better for them”.
Until Aleksandar Vučić came to power in 2012, and until he assumed the role of Secretary of the National Security Council, we had no substantial progress, that is, no progress in the fight against corruption. On the contrary, the corruption in our country was so great that the EU had to intervene several times and mark Serbia as a country steeped in corruption. At that time, 24 privatization scandals, out of the many hundreds of scandals that shook Serbia, became known across the European continent. Those privatizations were just the tip of the iceberg. At that time, the entire security apparatus had to be silent and watch as drug traffickers poison our children, while seizing only one ton of drugs a year.
The seriousness of the fight against economic crime today is demonstrated by the fact that Aleksandar Vučić was the one who had the courage to attack the heart of organized crime, who had the courage to mention names that no one was authorized to say until then and who had the courage of encouraging the state apparatus to press charges against those who, just a few months or a year earlier, formed the governments of Serbia.
The fact that in the period from 2014 to 2020, 160 directors of public companies, mayors, secretaries of state, deputy ministers, officials at various levels and all those for whom evidence was found also favored the fight against corruption. which ensures that in the judicial process, before the courts that are independent and that will decide whether someone is guilty or not, proceedings are initiated and justice is done for the citizens of Serbia.
It was only during the Aleksandar Vučić government that Serbia obtained a security apparatus that does not look at who’s called, if they have someone’s party card, if they have money or not, but rather conducts investigations fairly and independently against those. people. Why doesn’t that suit Dragan Djilas, Borko Stefanovic, Marinika Tepic, Vuk Jeremic, or any of them today? Because in this way, they cannot appoint prosecutors and party judges, as they did. They cannot make fun of the police, as Djilas did when he was in power. And politicians cannot decide whether someone will be prosecuted or not, whether someone is guilty beforehand or not, but that is left to the prosecution and the courts, as required by law and the rule of law.
When we talk about corruption scandals, you should not walk away from your ranks and remember the biggest corruption scandals that shook Serbia, which unfortunately got wrapped up in the legal framework brought by the then government. That is why Serbia did not move forward, but only private companies, from the Djilas family to everyone else. When we remember the ministers of economy, finance, economics, when we remember the directors of the largest companies, some of whom, like Aleksandar Stamenković, fled to the United States to avoid the courts and justice. These people do not intend to return, they are probably waiting for a change of government when they are abolished by Dragan Djilas, as one of his closest collaborators.
During his rule, it was completely normal to pay 650 million more dinars for the reconstruction of King Alexander Boulevard, to cut the tanks into scrap, to grow mushrooms in the plants of the Smederevo Ironworks. When you look at all of that, you realize what kind of people you are dealing with and that the scandals that shook Serbia at the time only destroyed the future of the citizens of Serbia.
The real fight against crime and corruption only began with the coming to power of Aleksandar Vučić. At the time it was decided by those who mention it today, crime and corruption were hallmarks of the government, and not that there was no struggle, but that they inspired it more strongly.
Even today, it can be seen that Miroslav Mišković and everyone else are actually respected businessmen for them. All of them are just waiting to put their hands back in the state coffers and that is why there is not a single statement in which they do not try to relativize what was done during their government, because obviously they are proud of the results that their companies have enriched. empty.
If it were not so, we would not have been on the brink of collapse in 2012, when Serbia entered a great recession, when it was on the verge of bankruptcy and when all those who are teaching Aleksandar Vučić today were at the peak of their power. The only problem was that the citizens of Serbia were so poor and that their future was brutally taken away, that Serbia simply could not get on with these people.
His attempt to return to power shows an insatiable thirst for an armchair. That chair is obviously the only program they have. In addition to their list of good wishes, which they never explained to us why they were not fulfilled while they were in power, there is only hatred towards Aleksandar Vučić and a constant message that, only if they are in armchairs, only if they are in power, only if those ministers are present can they be satisfied and happy.
Unfortunately for them, the citizens of Serbia wonder about it. That is the question of those people who were left without work, without a future, who were at the mercy of the tycoons. And the citizens of Serbia do not want the return of the mafia tycoon octopus.
And another personal comment. On October 5, 2000, I was with Aleksandar Vučić all day. We were on the street and that man showed incredible courage that day, personal courage, which he resists talking about, but I remember it well. And unlike many who hid in a mouse hole that day, although they were on the other side, he did not do that in 2000 or 2010 when they were in power, or today in 2020, when he makes the most complex and complex decisions that not everyone likes them. And that’s the difference between Aleksandar Vučić, on the one hand, and Dragan Đilas, Borko Stefanović and all of them on the other. The difference is when you have someone who is a leader who does not choose good or bad moments, or an opportunity for political gain, but makes decisions that are more important to the country. That is the difference between a statesman and a politician. “
