Borisa Mijic has been absent from parliamentary duties since mid-June. During this period, his involvement with the company Progros has become the subject of scrutiny by the Commission for the Prevention of Corruption, an issue that has also been reported by the media outlet Truth. Addressing the ongoing scrutiny, Zoran Stevanović, the president of the National Assembly and leader of the Truth party, commented on the political climate.
Stevanović noted that the Truth party secured five mandates, and stated that the party intends to conclude its participation after that period. He questioned the necessity of continuing the intense questioning and pressure directed toward Mr. Mijic beyond October 10th, a date marking the half-year anniversary since the party’s founding meeting.
Furthermore, Stevanović clarified the procedural implications should a deputy resign. He explained that in such an event, the seat would not automatically transfer to the next name listed within the Truth party roster; instead, a new election would be necessary for that vacancy. Regarding Mijic’s future role, Stevanović established a clear condition for his continued standing.
He asserted that if Mr. Mijic fails to meet all previously agreed-upon obligations within a ten-day timeframe, Stevanović would no longer be in a position to vote for him.
