Serbia's National Assembly is set to convene for a session focused solely on a no-confidence motion against the government. The timing of this vote, initiated back in February, has sparked debate about its political implications and whether it signals a procedural move or a significant political statement. Former Deputy Prime Minister ลฝarko Koraฤ is expected to provide insights into the matter.
Beyond domestic politics, the session's agenda touches upon regional issues. Reports will cover a planned strike by customs officials at Greek border crossings with North Macedonia, including Evzoni, Dojrani, and Niki, starting July 27. This action could lead to potential disruptions and traffic jams for tourists, with journalist Dragan Antonovski expected to detail the reasons and consequences.
Additionally, the assembly will acknowledge the success of Miroslav Terziฤ's film "3 nedelje posle" (3 Weeks After). Following its world premiere at Karlovy Vary and an award from Europa Cinemas Label, the film secured three Golden Arenas at the Pula Film Festival. Inspired by real events, the movie tackles themes of peer violence, responsibility, silence, and collective guilt. Actress Klara Karauliฤ is slated to discuss her role in the film. The program will also include a segment on the latest sports news with journalist Ilija Kovaฤiฤ.
