His answer, of course, would be that he's changed, or as some like to say, "evolved".

So he was evil back then, but he's a great guy now. He used to wear "Serbian Hero" t-shirts in parliament - you know, the ones with the pictures of Karadzic, Mladic and Seselj - but now he wears a smart suit and tie and talks all about reconciliation. He was Minister of Information when Curuvija was murdered, and now leads the investigation into that murder, claiming not to have any information.

'They also warned that the media "must not succumb to pressures and a climate of fear created by the government and must protect the reputation and professional integrity of journalists," and invited Mihajlovic to publicly apologize to Bozic-Kraincanic and all other RTV journalists.'

This case is even worse: The government didn't do anything, and the RTV director acted on his own behalf. Those persons don't need state control, they commit self-censorship.

P.S. It was a valid question what Vucic thinks about 'Greater Serbia' and if he abandoned this policy. What has his answer been? This would be interesting, and it's missing in the article. Anyone knows?
