Democratic Party president Zoran Lutovac has said that it is time for people to "raise their heads and straighten their spines," a time "for changes, for changes starting from the roots."

"It is time to change the state and society from the roots. It is high time. This not a question of ideology or political program, but our very survival. It is high time that we transition from a pre-political community to an orderly democratic society," Lutovac said in a op-ed for the March 10 edition of Vreme.

He said that "the essence of this regime is to cultivate weeds." "Nothing is so detrimental to the state as a monopoly, the king of weeds. The fulcrum of all authoritarian rulers. The usurpation of the state and society, public resources, information, money and jobs," Lutovac stressed.

"Elections are ahead of us, followed by purges. We need justice. Justice as the awareness that there can be no agreement with those responsible [for crimes], justice as the awareness that criminals will be identified and punished because without that there is no future. We made this mistake once and the past is exacting revenge upon us like a boomerang, only worse," Lutovac said.
