Freedom and Justice Party leader Dragan Djilas said on March 30 that the Serbia Against Violence coalition was working together with the NADA coalition and people at the ProGlas (ProVote) initiative, and that they would like to see Boris Tadic’s Social Democratic Party and the Dveri movement in this “informal alliance."

Djilas said during a session of his party’s steering committee in Pozarevac that change “has begun” in Serbia. “We are working with the people in NADA and ProGlas because we are stronger together. We also want this informal alliance to include parties that are genuine opposition parties, like the Social Democratic Party and Dveri. They can fight with us against the government that is destroying Serbia,” Djilas said.

The opposition leader said that the Serbia Against Violence coalition was not a pro-Western opposition coalition, but rather pro-Serbian. “We are a patriotic party, and we love our country,” Djilas said, adding that Serbia "only has a future in Europe."

The Freedom and Justice Party leader explained that the four major problems the Serbian opposition was struggling with “are the media situation, voter registers, vote buying and pressures on voters.”
