Professor at the Faculty of Law in Novi Sad, Bojan Pajtić, has sharply criticized Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, claiming he has become “persona non grata” in large parts of Serbia and is increasingly isolated from the public.
In remarks to media outlet Nova, Pajtić argued that a majority of citizens no longer support Vučić and are eager to see him leave power. He accused the president of maintaining control through media influence and alleged corrupt networks, describing the current political climate as deeply troubling.
The comments come amid reports that strong police forces were deployed to secure Vučić’s recent visit to Çaçak, where he appeared on a local television station. According to Pajtić, such heavy security presence reflects growing public discontent and signals a lack of political legitimacy.
He further claimed that public frustration is building and could erupt into broader political change, suggesting that citizens are increasingly motivated to remove the ruling Serbian Progressive Party from power.
Pajtić also alleged that government officials now move discreetly, often at night and under extensive protection, which he described as evidence of a widening gap between authorities and the population.
The accusations highlight intensifying political tensions in Serbia, where opposition figures continue to challenge the government’s legitimacy and call for democratic reforms.
