Social Democratic Party leader Rasim Ljajic said that the decision to abolish blank resignations will “open a season of buying mandates.” Ljajic told daily Blic that the recent decision of the Constitution Court will “cause great instability in the society on the local and state levels.” Ljajic: Open season for buying mandates He said that there is “a lot of arrogance and little tolerance” on the Serbian political scene, adding that there is also a “lack of concern for the general good.” “Here, all parties start to think about the next elections as soon as one election is over, not about what they should do during their mandate. There is no continuity in Serbian policies, every government starts the job from the beginning and negates everything that the last one did,” he said. Ljajic said that there are not enough investments in Serbia, adding that “in eight years, Croatia has built 1,200 kilometers of roads, Albania has constructed 340 kilometers in four, and we cannot finish the road from Novi Sad to Belgrade.” “This is the biggest loss of all democratic governments since 2000. Someone has to stop it, to draw the line and say that it cannot be like this anymore. Even if we lose the elections, we will be able to say that we left something behind us, even if we never get back into power," Ljajic said. He said that the current model of economic development has reached its peak and cannot do anything further, adding that “a country of 7.5 million people cannot develop in this way.” “We cannot live forever without exports, without foreign investments, spending and retail,” he said.
