Serbia Center (SRCE) MP Stefan Janjić has accused Serbian National Assembly President Ana Brnabić of lying once again, posting on social media platform X that she misled the public regarding her presence during the visit of European Parliament members.
Janjić stated:
“After I disproved her claim that she was not informed about the arrival of the European Parliament delegation, Ana Brnabić admitted that she was, but justified it by saying she would be traveling to Estonia. Another lie! The Assembly meetings are scheduled for Friday, 23 January, while she returns from Estonia on Thursday, 22 January.”
To support his claim, Janjić shared a document confirming that Brnabić’s return from Estonia is indeed scheduled for 22 January, meaning she will be in Belgrade during the European Parliament delegation’s visit.
Earlier, Brnabić had stated that she did not consider the visit of nine European Parliament members to Belgrade as highly significant and indicated that she would be out of the country at the time. She told K1:
“From 22 to 24 January, I will not be in Serbia, as I have a planned visit to Estonia, which is also important for European integration and has been in preparation for months. I consider it inappropriate to cancel that visit.”
Brnabić also claimed that the European Parliament delegation arrived unannounced, and that Serbian officials were not notified in time. She said:
“They did not contact us. Our embassy in Brussels received the information and told us that they would visit the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia to ‘investigate facts.’”
However, this statement was soon contradicted, with evidence showing that Serbian officials had indeed been informed in advance of the European Parliament delegation’s visit.
