Students call end to RTS blockade

The parliamentary Culture and Information Committee met on Monday afternoon and voted 15 to 1 to annul the previous competition for membership in the Council of the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media (REM), a supposedly independent body which has the power to allocate broadcasting licenses and impose fines on electronic media.

Raspisan je novi konkurs za Savet REM-a. Sa tim, gotova je blokada RTS-a, nakon 14 dana.
Ponovo radi ćevabdžinica.

“A new competition for the REM Council has been called and that means the blockade of the RTS is over after 14 days,” the students of the Belgrade Arts University School of Drama Arts (FDU) said in an X post.

The students set up a blockade of the RTS headquarters in central Belgrade and studios in a suburb demanding either the shutting down of the RTS or a new competition for the REM Council.
