BELGRADE After October 5, 2000, Serbia and its society made progress, opposition DS party leader and former Serbian president for two terms Boris Tadic stated on Friday. In 2000, the Democrats, then with late Zoran Djindjic at the helm, were leading a large coalition of parties, the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS), that ousted the regime of Slobodan Milosevic. Tadic on October 5: Serbia has changed for better In an article on the occasion of the October 5 anniversary published on the DS website, Tadic said the day marked the establishment of democracy, democratic institutions, and the beginning of social reforms. “These events are an exceptional achievement of our citizens, as after years of war Serbia decided to join the greatest peacekeeping project of the modern world, the European Union, and actively change its basic principles through a reconciliation process in the constantly unstable area of the western Balkans,” Tadic wrote. “The statements by our officials saying that we are in no rush on the EU pathway, and that from now on Serbia will now set its preconditions to the EU are not only demagogy of the nineties, but also an expression of dangerous intentions which bring into question the citizens' will, which has been clearly stated on a number of occasions, their economic future, and our legitimate interests in Kosovo,” Tadic underlined. He said that October 5, 2000 was not only an act of wining freedom, but also an unambiguous decision of the citizens about the country's strategic orientation. “Such a decision cannot be changed by any government, but the citizens themselves,” the DS president said.
