Former Serbian president says boycott is legitimate action

He said the goal of a boycott of parliament is to show that something is wrong with democracy in Serbia.  

The boycott can only be effective if all opposition parties back the idea, the former president of Serbia said adding that the entire opposition is on the same track now. He said all institutions should also be boycotted.  

Tadic said officials from all opposition parties opposed to President Aleksandar Vucic’s policies discussed the boycott at a meeting on Thursday.  

According to the SDS leader, Serbia is in a situation when everything is under Vucic’s control and given those circumstances the opposition has to start a boycott and “obstruct the system that wants to destroy the basic principles of democracy”. A boycott is also a way to prevent the Vucic regime from taking control of all resources in the country, he said.
