00:00:34Good evening, so
00:00:37let's start like this, for months now we have known that
00:00:40students are winning, but from a few days ago we also
00:00:44know the exact date of victory, I
00:00:47didn't say this, this was said by Professor Nemanja
00:00:51Karović of Belgrade University, on Monday, so
00:00:55five days ago on the day when
00:00:57students were in front of the directorate. they started their first
00:01:01march towards victory, so from the rectorate, the link
00:01:05to hand over their ballot boxes,
00:01:09but let's talk about something else tonight, let's
00:01:12talk about
00:01:14think about how to achieve that
00:01:16victory, whether victory
00:01:20is achieved by some numbers and
00:01:23is it true what many
00:01:26analysts and researchers say.
00:01:30And politicians, about victory
00:01:33is decided by turnout.
00:01:36Are there any among you who are still
00:01:40undecided whether to go out or how
00:01:43political actors who are fighting for victory
00:01:46on October 25th
00:01:49identify those undecided, i.e.
00:01:53you, how to increase turnout? We're talking about that
00:01:56tonight, tonight on "Utisak Nedelje" at the beginning. Quoted is Professor of Belgrade
00:02:00University, and more precisely, assistant professor
00:02:03of the Faculty of Education, Teacher Educator,
00:02:06Nemanja Karović. Good evening,
00:02:09thank you very much for coming tonight and the candidate
00:02:13on the student list,
00:02:16uh, let me ask that right away,
00:02:20uh, these days, around
00:02:23uh, Mr. and Professor and
00:02:26Doctor Ilija Srdanović, who is the list leader.
00:02:30"How is that interpreted in public, that is, the first on the list, he
00:02:33emphasizes that he is not the list leader, but that he is
00:02:36the first among equals, uh, let me
00:02:39ask you, uh, your
00:02:43number is 213, 213, uh,
00:02:46if you are all first among equals, does that mean that the chances of
00:02:50you becoming prime minister are equal to those of
00:02:53Srdanović or someone 128 or
00:02:5714, well, I don't know. Now,
00:03:00what are the greater chances for what, but I can say that
00:03:04what Mr. Srdanović said actually stems
00:03:08from the spirit of the student protest movement itself, which
00:03:11is based primarily on diversity of thought, on many
00:03:14different people, of different affiliations who are
00:03:17united in one identical goal, so his statement
00:03:21indicates that, so we are all present here,
00:03:25we are different from each other, but we have an internal unity. and
00:03:28goal, now those probabilities, what, when
00:03:32it goes, those are all questions that come after
00:03:35when something happens, it should be something
00:03:39soon and it should be groundbreaking,
00:03:42Tara Jovanović, Tara
00:03:44is a master's student
00:03:48of the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Belgrade, uh, here,
00:03:51Tara, uh, before
00:03:54we get into the real conversation, let me ask you this,
00:03:57which also exists as a kind of
00:04:00dilemma, I don't know why, so, even though
00:04:03the students said two years ago that students would not be
00:04:07on the list, that the student list does not mean
00:04:10that students are on the list, this is still presented as a great
00:04:14discovery and a great miracle, like what kind of student
00:04:17list is it where there are no students, let's put an end to that, why are there no
00:04:21students on the student list? First of all, thank
00:04:25you for the invitation, and why there are no students, as you also
00:04:28said, from the very beginning, when we talked, when we asked for elections, we said
00:04:32that students would not be on the list. Our job,
00:04:36I mean, is to study, to finish
00:04:38faculties, to stay in this country, to
00:04:41continue our education in our profession
00:04:45to be the best experts, and
00:04:48now, at the moment, we are leaving that role on the student list
00:04:52to real experts, people who are already
00:04:55established, uh, whom we trust, and here with
00:04:58us is our professor. Today he is a truly
00:05:01excellent representative of our list, and
00:05:04a person we trust greatly. So,
00:05:07uh, there are no students on the list. We said that from the start, that it would not
00:05:11be left. This role to people we
00:05:13trust, Stefan Simić, good evening, Stefan,
00:05:17we talked earlier, you were there seven years ago for the first
00:05:21and last time until today, uh,
00:05:24today in the role
00:05:27of a councilor in the city assembly, on the list of the Movement of Free
00:05:31Citizens, tonight on the show as
00:05:34a representative of the opposition party that
00:05:37decided to participate in the elections and
00:05:41in that way. increase the chances
00:05:44for that victory that Professor
00:05:48Karović spoke about. Did I say something inaccurate, just in
00:05:52this formulation, so do you believe that
00:05:56uh the absence of the Movement of Free Citizens
00:05:59increases the chances of victory? Uh,
00:06:02I believe that the support of the Movement of Free Citizens for the student
00:06:06list, that is, the list number three, the student list, students are winning
00:06:09increases the chances for victory. "I am someone who
00:06:13deeply believes in parliamentary democracy and I believe that parties should conduct
00:06:17political battles, that they are authorized representatives in
00:06:21all parliaments, not only in the republican but also
00:06:24locally. Among other things, I am a councilor in the city
00:06:27assembly of Belgrade, but we are currently living in an extraordinary
00:06:31situation, both socially and politically. Therefore,
00:06:35I believe that we had to make an
00:06:38extraordinary move, which is to take a step back and to..."
00:06:42Support the student list. That is, we, at the main board,
00:06:46made a decision as the Movement of Free Citizens to either go
00:06:50united, all parliamentary opposition in one column, where we
00:06:53believed that we would then uh, simply have a 100%
00:06:57chance to pass the census, to be a partner to the student list
00:07:01when that didn't happen, to support the student
00:07:04list. I believe that this is a good decision, and Goran
00:07:08Ješić, good evening, President of
00:07:10Solidarnost and tonight as
00:07:14one of the coalition partners on
00:07:17the list of European Serbia under
00:07:20the name Marinika Tepić Zdravko Punaš,
00:07:23here is Julianov's solidarity and all other names. Yesterday
00:07:27the list was submitted, yes, today it
00:07:30was verified, uh, is this question for you,
00:07:34whether uh, you
00:07:37now feel like three to
00:07:40one in this division, or do you feel like a partner.
00:07:44to the Movement of Free Citizens and the student movement,
00:07:47absolutely as a partner, someone who wants
00:07:50the victory of the student list,
00:07:54to be completely sure that I would like to wake up on the 16th or
00:07:5726th and have 126
00:08:00deputies from the student list and opposition representatives in
00:08:04parliament, and we will do everything to make that happen.
00:08:07Maybe we have different views, maybe we think
00:08:10about how to achieve that in a technological sense, some have more, some less
00:08:14experience, we can talk about that on the show, but we are completely
00:08:17equal, we talked before the show, I have two children who are students,

00:14:38OTP Bank
00:14:40and
00:14:45once again, good evening, never too much, good
00:14:49evening, tonight on "Utisak Nedelje", Goran Ješić,
00:14:52Stefan Simić, Tara Jovanović.
00:14:55Nemanja Karović, we are talking about how
00:14:59to achieve victory on October
00:15:0225th and how much turnout is what
00:15:05determines, how that turnout is increased,
00:15:09what is the difference between, as we said in
00:15:12the first five minutes, partners and
00:15:16Professor Karović, I ask you first, so
00:15:19uh, can you
00:15:22describe the person
00:15:25as you imagine them, who
00:15:29has not yet decided whether
00:15:31they will go out, for whom they will vote, or who
00:15:34decides not to go to the elections, so that you
00:15:38know who you are addressing, who is that
00:15:41person? I can imagine, because I meet such people, I know,
00:15:44I hear comments, but sometimes even in
00:15:47the lack of conversation or avoiding certain topics, one can
00:15:51sense that someone is undecided or that they are fed up
00:15:54with everything. I understand people who, for example, went through
00:15:58various demonstrations in the 90s, who saw changes, and then they
00:16:01mutually, and then they uh, because of that, became disillusioned in
00:16:05the meantime, and now everything seems to them as if they have already seen it. and as if
00:16:08things are repeating, but here it would be good to take into account that the entire
00:16:12era has changed, that
00:16:16uh events from one time are not completely
00:16:19analogous to current events, there are also
00:16:23people who don't believe in the possibility of any change at all, and there are people who, for example, are afraid
00:16:26of change, they think who knows what will happen, they feel some
00:16:30possible uncertainty, but I can, for example,
00:16:34say certain questions that I ask myself. I assume
00:16:38when I think about how to decide on things,
00:16:41for example, think about how many people are on the conscience
00:16:45of this regime, how many people have suffered because of someone's
00:16:48corruption, or for example
00:16:52whom the police baton is so easily
00:16:55raised against, whom that same police force does not dare
00:16:59to approach or legitimize, who are
00:17:02the richest people in Serbia, where do they get their money, is
00:17:05crime involved in that acquisition, or for example to turn on
00:17:09the television and try to describe in three words what
00:17:13they see, or for example, to try to remember when they saw
00:17:17a government representative participating in a
00:17:20fair, free, organized public debate with their
00:17:24political opponent, or for example compare their income
00:17:27with the prices on the shelves and
00:17:31at gas stations, or for example to
00:17:34look at what our health centers and hospitals look like. What is
00:17:38happening in our schools, to remember the idea of government representatives that
00:17:42universities should be shut down and replaced
00:17:45by some accreditation-dubious
00:17:48institutions to teach our children, then something very important and painful
00:17:52for everyone when we witnessed it, there are children in
00:17:56Serbia, or there were at one point, who could not get a place in
00:17:59kindergarten because their parents were not
00:18:02to the liking of local bullies, or to
00:18:05remember that monstrous statement. Or the idea that
00:18:09a child, that a child is the property of the state until
00:18:13they turn 18, or for example, to leaf through the most forgotten
00:18:17book of our present day, that is the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia, and just
00:18:21compare the provisions of that constitution with the content of, say,
00:18:24the Brussels Agreement, the Washington Agreement, the Franco-German
00:18:27plan, or for example, to remember that the deputies of this regime in
00:18:31the assembly did not vote for the resolution on the genocide
00:18:35of the Independent State of Croatia, or for example, to look at who are president, who pays them
00:18:38and on whose behalf they work, and something that we must never lose sight of,
00:18:42because it is of cardinal importance, is that this regime was ready, it
00:18:46is still ready to hand over the natural resources of Serbia to
00:18:50Rio Tinto, so that this company can rake in
00:18:53money at our expense, leaving us with polluted rivers, poisoned
00:18:57water, barren nature.
00:19:00Now let everyone answer these questions,
00:19:02let them decide
00:19:05freely. Now that you have listed all this,
00:19:09how many actors are there, according to
00:19:13your view, on the political
00:19:17scene and what is being decided on October 25th?
00:19:21Uh, I think the situation is completely clear.
00:19:24There are two actors, one actor is
00:19:28the leader of the regime, whose name I don't even need to mention, on the other hand,
00:19:32the student movement, I wouldn't even say the student list, because the student
00:19:35list is the people that students have chosen, the student
00:19:38movement and the first man of the regime, that's where the
00:19:41matter is broken, or according to the slogan of the student pre-election
00:19:44campaign which has already been formed, Serbia or mafia,
00:19:48that's the choice, that should be the focus from beginning to end, that's where
00:19:52the matter is broken and uh, so discussing some
00:19:55secondary topics, uh, how many columns
00:19:59are coming out, these calculations about
00:20:02turnout, who carries how many percentages and so on, I think that
00:20:06dilutes the main focus so that it could simply harm, so to speak, the
00:20:10edge of the political edge of the campaign, Tara, now I
00:20:13ask you, let me ask you this first,
00:20:17if you would address that someone, if you could give
00:20:21us a composite sketch as the professor did, have
00:20:25you met that someone who has not decided and who is not
00:20:29going to vote? Yes, uh, we have been
00:20:32campaigning as students since December last
00:20:36year, that is, knocking on every door in Serbia,
00:20:39and among other things, we have come across undecided people.
00:20:42They were interested in the student list, uh, they
00:20:46essentially gave us support, but they still
00:20:50wanted to see who would be on the list. Uh, now we have
00:20:53solved that problem, but we have
00:20:55more often encountered a phenomenon, and that is that people tell us that they have not
00:20:59voted since the 90s, for example 97, 98, that they say
00:21:03that now they can't wait to go out and vote,
00:21:07so we have met more of those people
00:21:09than undecided ones, and if I could
00:21:13send a message to the undecided, I would say
00:21:17that this victory that we will achieve on October 25th
00:21:20should be a common one, a popular victory,
00:21:24because nothing can defeat the people, and it is very
00:21:28beautiful when students and citizens together
00:21:31with common forces go out on that day
00:21:33of victory, but now let me ask you very specifically,
00:21:37here's what I asked Mr. Ječić before
00:21:40we started, do you uh perceive
00:21:44these opposition lists that are running
00:21:47in the elections, so there is... authentic
00:21:50right-wing, new DSS and
00:21:54monarchists, and this list for
00:21:58European Serbia, that is, the Party of Freedom and Justice, the heart
00:22:02of solidarity, do you perceive them as
00:22:05partners? Is it a common victory
00:22:09that some people vote for them, some for you,
00:22:13and when it's all added up, it's a common victory? Well,
00:22:17first of all, we hope, given that we have stirred up the whole
00:22:20country, that we will win the majority ourselves,
00:22:24we are confident in that.
00:22:26We are focusing on our campaign, our
00:22:30citizens - but as for other
00:22:33parties, uh, I believe that now
00:22:37that elections have been called, everyone has their own independent
00:22:40research. Uh, we believe that every party should be
00:22:44responsible to its voters regarding crossing
00:22:47the census. In that sense, we call on and hope
00:22:51that every party will pay attention to its voters, so that
00:22:55their vote will not go to
00:22:58the regime. I would like to point out one fact which is
00:23:02simply a necessity of the elections themselves, and that is
00:23:05that the parties that ran in
00:23:07the elections will necessarily
00:23:11begin to view the student movement, i.e. the student list,
00:23:14not only in terms of cooperation but also competition.
00:23:17So, if we are running the same electoral... race, that means there
00:23:21is some rivalry, there is, even if there is some
00:23:24unity at a certain level, so things are now becoming more complex,
00:23:28more layered, and that's why, for example, we have heard some quite negative
00:23:32statements from some opposition leaders in recent days, about, for example,
00:23:36uh, that uh
00:23:39parties that do not run in elections to support students
00:23:43are leading to monism or to the loss
00:23:46of pluralism of opinion, for example, and then it is said
00:23:50uh... "If there is only SNS and the student list in the Parliament, that is the end
00:23:53of the multi-party system." Those are excessively strong words, they are not
00:23:57adequate at all as concepts to speak about. On the other
00:24:00hand, if something can be said with certainty about the student movement,
00:24:03it is that it is a movement of many minds,
00:24:07and then, when we ask ourselves why
00:24:10are we even discussing many minds, one mind, and so on, when
00:24:14opposite us we have madness, that should remain
00:24:18in focus, so on one side, reason, on the other
00:24:22side, madness, that should be the focus from which we should not deviate.
00:24:25And I believe this is the moment
00:24:28where I don't even have to ask you, so
00:24:32uh, with what you have
00:24:36definitively submitted the list,
00:24:38definitively uh the list has been accepted, have you
00:24:42definitively put an
00:24:44end to the discussion about whether you will cross the census
00:24:48or not? Have you done that? Convinced that you will cross the census
00:24:52and contribute to this result that everyone
00:24:56in this studio is waiting for? We believe that we are serious
00:24:59and that we considered such a decision completely responsibly
00:25:03and all research has shown, even the Movement of Free
00:25:06Citizens, that there is a serious
00:25:10amount of votes going
00:25:13towards pro-European lists, towards former joint
00:25:16lists, but now these are lists gathered here. With
00:25:20these three organizations, there is no way we can be rivals, we will
00:25:23never be rivals, because we have only one evil to defeat.
00:25:27There is a serious group of people in Serbia who firmly
00:25:31believe in the European Union, there is a serious group of people who have
00:25:34been fighting for 25 years in this country. The great thing
00:25:38is that for the past year and a half, the youth
00:25:42has recognized the problem in this society and awakened
00:25:45this society. We had various criticisms about what you have done
00:25:48so far. Well, you know, I wish there were many more, and
00:25:51when we protested against theft, when Marinika was on a hunger strike,
00:25:55and when we held various protests, and finally, when,
00:25:59before the student protest, after November 5th, a
00:26:02bunch of people were arrested in Novi Sad, and there were about 30 or 50 people,
00:26:06mostly politicians, in front of the prosecutor's office and court in Novi
00:26:09Sad. I'm sorry there weren't 5,000. I was in detention
00:26:13then. If there had been 5,000 people then, no one would have dared again.
00:26:17to keep them from protesting in prison, and we spent thousands and thousands
00:26:20of days, we experienced beatings, we experienced harassment,
00:26:24we experienced all sorts of things and that
00:26:27moment when, first of all, thanks to the involvement of the University of Novi Sad,
00:26:30then the University of Belgrade.
00:26:33That moment when Serbia woke up is a great moment, we are all on the same task and I return
00:26:36to this second answer, there are studies,
00:26:40all of them said that there is a serious group that
00:26:43has a problem with a part of politics or a clear
00:26:46statement of the student list, that is completely natural, if you want
00:26:50to defeat such evil in Serbia that closes
00:26:53gymnasiums, that closes universities, they did not mind that schools
00:26:57and universities work, if they have no problem that one of the best gymnasiums in
00:27:01the country absolutely works, where are... the best students, the best
00:27:04artists, the best athletes, to appoint a person
00:27:07who is absolutely for a closed institution, not to lead that
00:27:10gymnasium, they have no feeling for that society, we must defeat that evil
00:27:13together and I say there is a group of people who
00:27:17have a problem to decide on that because
00:27:20they have a feeling for their things, primarily in relation to
00:27:24a clear statement towards the European Union, to a clear statement towards
00:27:27Russia, towards Belarus, towards everything that are influences in this
00:27:30society, wants to be clearly defined.
00:27:32Let's stay on that, just two sentences, we are here
00:27:36to articulate these questions together with the aim of your
00:27:40first question, to increase voter turnout, we clearly said
00:27:44what we think about that, entering inside we consider as
00:27:47a partnership without conditioning, now
00:27:50how do you deal with the risk of not passing
00:27:53the census, would it be because there is then
00:27:56a possibility that certain votes which, i.e., mandates that
00:27:59would have gone to you if you had passed the census, come, of course. to
00:28:03the student list, but to the regime, so there is a possibility
00:28:07that that will happen, as responsible people, how do you deal with that
00:28:10risk, we have talked a lot about that, I would not want a single
00:28:13vote to go to that side, at this moment we are completely sure of that, I said
00:28:17seven days ago, one thing that today I think Dragan Đilas also
00:28:21repeated, I don't have time because of this, we are entering
00:28:24parliament completely sure, we have a situation that is a complete
00:28:27anomaly, we are somewhere of a generation, so we followed the elections from
00:28:31'91, I was... participated for the first time, we have an
00:28:35anti-campaign that absolutely does not come from you, but specifically
00:28:38comes towards the pro-European opposition, because
00:28:41the government knows that you can
00:28:45only have a partner with us, I will tell you
00:28:48one important thing, but please, this is a very important thing,
00:28:52when you need to test who your future partners will be, I will say
00:28:56one thing that is completely clear, now it is currently speculated that he will use
00:28:59this chaos to call presidential elections. very soon, seven days after
00:29:03these, we have no dilemma,
00:29:06no uncertainty that the European opposition
00:29:09will absolutely without any objections support the candidate of the largest opposition
00:29:13list, that is the student list, without any conditions, ask all
00:29:17other partners, will they
00:29:19do it, you will know who will give you support in parliament, we can talk about
00:29:23those numbers a little later, just one more sentence, that is the test, those
00:29:26elections are a referendum, parliamentary
00:29:30elections, unfortunately due to the D'Hondt system. there is no, and due to everything else, they cannot be
00:29:34a referendum, because you already have
00:29:3715 mandates of minorities at the start today, you know how minorities voted in the past
00:29:41period, you know that the SPS was created, which was on the edge, Rasim Ljajić was added to it, that is already

00:30:10this uh, what Mr. Ješić said,
00:30:13so, if our topic is, how to

00:30:20as follows, turnout increases
00:30:22with the conviction of all members of this

00:30:47voters who you know will not vote
00:30:50if there is no
00:30:54list that is clearly committed
