Vucic: We will organize “the largest gathering ever in Serbia” 

In a video message Vucic told the people that “the sadness, grief and pain are not going away.”

“Sadness for the lost children, sorrow for the lost people, wonderful people who were not guilty of anything. Following a heavy blow we had to launch an operation and we collected almost 3,000 pieces of weapons today alone and proved that we are capable of fighting for peace, saving human lives and changing many things,” said Vucic, reported Vecernje novosti.

The President accused his political rivals of “brutally abusing the tragedy” and of “scheduling their political gatherings during the days of mourning with one goal only, and that is to use violence and grab power through violence.”

“They made no effort to hide it, they just showed their true face to everyone, one that we once often used to talk about. In spite of everything we again said we stand at their disposal, we are prepared to talk about big and important changes in the state. They did not want to hear us, they wouldn’t listen because they think that now is the time for them to come to power without elections and the people’s will, knowing that the people in Serbia never wanted them and never will,” said the Serbian President.

He added that he is prepared to discuss “all topics, the media, reality shows, police participation, police non-participation, resignation of various officials or not, and for this also to be discussed in the Parliament.”

“None of this sufficed, and will never suffice. Their only goal is to violently seize power and to lead Serbia into chaos, instability, unrest and riots. This is precisely why we reached an agreement this evening and we invite all Serbian citizens to come on May 26, a day before major and important decisions for Serbia, to the largest gathering ever held in Serbia. It will take place outside the Parliament building or at the Republic Square,” said Vucic.
