Vuk Jeremic People's Party (Beta/Dragan Gojic)
People's Party leader Vuk Jeremic said on Aug. 7 that Veljko Belivuk's criminal gang didn't exist before the Serbian Progressive Party came to power.
Jeremic said that the leaders of the "current regime" had to take political responsibility for the spread of organized crime across Serbia.
"I hope that the prosecution and judicial authorities will do their job in the Belivuk trial and act according to the law and professional ethics. After the change of government, the Serbian president, Aleksandar Vucic, and Belivuk will have decades in prison to discuss who called whom, and who in the incumbent government was linked to the criminal group," Jeremic said during a visit to Valjevo.
In a comment on the presence of some opposition leaders at a cocktail party with Vucic and Milorad Dodik, the Serb member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the People's Party president said that Vucic's "call for national unity" was insincere, because it was not extended to the major opposition parties including his own.
