- Serbia’s Regulatory Authority for Electronic Media again failed to elect a council president at its third constitutive session.
- Four candidates were nominated, while Dubravka Nedeljković Valić and Miloš Garić remained tied at four votes each after the second round.
- The council requires six votes, and its previous constitutive sessions on July 20 and 30 also ended without an election.
The Council of Serbia’s Regulatory Authority for Electronic Media has again failed to choose a president, extending a deadlock that has lasted through all three of its constitutive sessions.
Four candidates were nominated at the latest session: Dubravka Nedeljković Valić, Milan Petković, Snežana Miljković and Miloš Garić. After the second round of voting, Nedeljković Valić and Garić each had four votes, leaving neither with the six votes required for election.
The council also failed to select a president at its sessions on July 20 and July 30. At those meetings, neither of the two nominated candidates, Garić or Nedeljković Valić, secured the necessary majority.
Nedeljković Valić, the council’s oldest member, is chairing the constitutive session. The other council members are Stevica Smederevac, Milan Petković, Snežana Miljković, Ira Prodanov Krajišnik, Mileva Malešić and Rodoljub Šabić.
