NS leader expects early elections

New Serbia (NS) leader Velimir Ilic said that 2009 was a very difficult year and that he expects emergency elections to be announced in 2010. He criticized the government for proposing and adopting bad laws. NS leader expects early elections “The majority adopted all kinds of things in the parliament, even things that should not have been allowed. They adopted the information law, the Vojvodina statute, which is completely unconstitutional, the law for transferring authorities to Vojvodina,” Ilic said. He added that poorly prepared laws are sent to the parliament and are adopted only to not be implemented within the next several years, adding that many of the adopted laws will not be able to be implemented, because they do not follow the corresponding legal acts. Ilic also criticized the way parliamentary sessions are led, adding that they are held at night to regularly, without the presence of the public, which he said is undemocratic. He criticized the relations between the government and the legislature, stating that they are not synchronized. Ilic also criticized the fact that ministers do not answer questions posed to them in parliament and the fact that many ministers present laws that are not within their ministry’s jurisdiction. He said that he expects the New Year to be difficult for the parliament, and he said that he believes that the soiling of the institutions dignity and honor will continue. “For all these reasons and the poor economic and political situation in the country, emergency parliamentary elections are needed,” Ilic said.
