Serbia’s Interior Ministry (MUP) said on Tuesday they had banned rallies that the Serbian Radical Party (SRS) planned during the “Mirëdita, dobar dan” festival, but the radicals said they would hold it, reports regional broadcaster N1.

Vojislav Seselj’s party scheduled the gatherings for May 30 and 31 and June 1, in central Belgrade, to protest the festival that has been held since 2014, with an aim to get Pristina and Belgrade closer to each other by getting to know their respective cultures better.

Speaking for the RTS main news edition, Dacic said that SPS have achieved an extraordinary results at this elections in a coalition with the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) in the municipalities of Pecinci, Negotin and Kostolac.

“How will Nenad Rikalo protect the interests of the Serb people in our southern province, when he proudly notes the fact that “for four years he was a member of a board of the SOROS foundation, together with Shpend Ahmeti, Ilir Deda and other prominent intellectuals from Pristina?”” Serbian Radical Party (SRS) said to the Serbian media.

The SRS also considers Rikalo’s appointment as “particularly scandalous” given that based on his own testimony “he is a reputable SOROS member and a friend of Albin Kurti,” media further reported.

Daily newspaper Večernje Novosti today writes that possible series of talks on changing the Constitution of Serbia, announced by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, could begin already in autumn.
