Welcome to the world where freedom of thought isn’t just threatened — it’s on the chopping block! Danilo Marunović, a Montenegrin director, was detained and deported from Serbia just for publicly expressing his views. Yes, you read that right — in the 21st century, in Europe, freedom of speech is punished with arrests and deportations. Montenegro’s Ministry of Culture clearly states that the actions against Marunović might have been motivated by his public expression, emphasizing that freedom of thought is a universal democratic value. But it seems Vučić’s regime has other plans.
Marunović’s detention isn’t just another incident — it’s a loud alarm that Serbia is suffocating any criticism and dissent. Montenegro’s Ministry of Culture expresses concern and demands explanations from Serbian authorities, while the case is being monitored in the spirit of good neighborly relations and regional cooperation. But how realistic is it to expect a regime that pressures and expels artists to stop such practices?
This case isn’t isolated. At the same time, Vučić rejects the students’ ultimatum, while tension and dissatisfaction simmer in northern Serbia. Is this the start of a new era of repression or just a continuation of the known politics? As Serbia battles its own demons, the region watches and wonders — where is the line for freedom?
If you think this is just another political game, think again. Freedom of thought isn’t a luxury; it’s the foundation of every democratic society. When a regime starts arresting and deporting those who think differently, it’s time to sound the alarm. So, what do you think? Is Serbia on the path to becoming a place where freedom is crushed, or is there still hope for true democracy? Drop a comment, crack a joke, or just share your thoughts — because silence isn’t an option!
