Maša Mališić Ljumović brings us the story of Mehmed Zenka, a parliamentarian whose life reads like a political soap opera! From early childhood, when he had to earn money to survive, through great ups and downs, to deep disappointments in politics – Zenka spares no honesty. He says he regrets entering politics every single day because politics betrayed him, while his friends have remained loyal even after 40 years.
His life story is full of struggle: he lost his father at just five years old, had to mature early and fight for education and life. He was a troubled child but hardworking and followed his dreams. His late wife was a lady with innate manners and huge support, which helped him endure great life blows.
Zenka hates lies and two-faced people, and politics brought him only betrayals and disappointments. Still, he loves his city Ulcinj and wishes it only the best. His story is a warning to anyone who thinks politics is an easy game – it’s not!
The other article about Đuro Macut and the police response to protests in Belgrade has nothing to do with Zenka’s life story and political disappointments, so it is marked as unrelated.
