NADA coalition demands mixed committee to clean up voter roll

Milos Jovanovic of the New Democratic Party of Serbia, which is a member of the NADA coalition, told a media conference that the announced Belgrade elections and the non-existent election conditions best testify to the deteriorating state of democracy.

He said he is certain that the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) cannot win the coming Belgrade elections.

“Using all available means, the NADA coalition will fight, in the parliament, on the streets and in the damaged institutions and media, for the minimal conditions for a fair fight,” said Jovanovic.

He said this includes the formation of a mixed committee that would comprise experts, representatives of political parties and NGOs, and which would take part in controlling and cleaning up the voter roll.

“We cannot allow for people who are not from Belgrade to take part in forming the city government,” stressed Jovanovic.
