Attack on Miloš Vučević’s House: Fascism or a Political Line We Must Not Cross?
Novi Sad is in shock! Protesters have crossed every line and attacked the house of Miloš Vučević, president of the Serbian Progressive Party and mayor of Novi Sad. Yes, you read that right – they attacked his home, disturbed his family, and called for lynching! This is not just political struggle; this is open fascism, say officials.
Who are these “blockaders”?
A group of citizens blocked Branimir Ćosić street, where Vučević lives, during protests. Calls for lynching and hatred towards a politician’s family have never been seen in Novi Sad’s history. Mayor Žarko Mićin condemned this act as an “unprecedented act of hatred in the city’s history” and called for restraint from further hate rhetoric.
Government reactions: No place for violence!
Biljana Pantić Pilja, a member of the SNS presidency, clearly stated that fascism is when children are not allowed to go to school, students cannot take exams, and now when people come in front of a political opponent’s house calling for lynching. Miloš Terzić, also from SNS, called the attackers “mentally ill and anarchist scum.”
Interior Minister Ivica Dačić strongly condemned the arrival of demonstrators in front of Vučević’s house, calling it a desire to provoke civil war. The Prime Minister emphasized that no one has the right to threaten the safety of families and children, and political differences must be resolved exclusively in institutions, not through violence.
What’s behind the blockades?
The blockades, ongoing for eight months, according to authorities, are not a student struggle but an organized campaign by extremists and political movements aiming to create chaos and destabilize Serbia. Calls for lynching and attacks on politicians’ families cross every boundary of normalcy.
Vučević’s political results?
Despite everything, the government highlights that Novi Sad, thanks to Vučević, has become one of the most desirable cities in the region. Salaries have increased, 14 factories opened, nine kindergartens and three new bridges built. But is that enough to stop the wave of hatred and violence?
Conclusion: Where is the line?
Attacks on Vučević’s house are not just attacks on one man but on democracy and civilized society. Will we allow political struggle to turn into a witch hunt and lynching? Or will we stand against fascism and violence?
What do you think? Is this the end of political culture or just the beginning of even fiercer conflicts? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s for peace and who’s for chaos!
