The Ministry of Information and Telecommunications announced today on social media that it strongly condemns the attack on the N1 team in front of the National Assembly. 

The Ministry of Information and Telecommunications (MIT) has invited journalist and media associations, unions, institutions, and government bodies to propose members for working groups tasked with drafting the Bill on Amendments and Supplements to two media laws and the Strategy for the Development of the Public Information System in the Republic of Serbia for the period from 2026 to 2030.

The Ministry of Information and Telecommunications informs the public that on November 10, 2025, the Regulation on Amendments and Supplements to the Regulation on Co-financing Projects for Achieving Public Interest in the Field of Public Information was adopted (“Official Gazette of the RS”, number 98/25).

The Director for Legal Affairs of the Independent Journalists' Association of Vojvodina (NDNV), Veljko Milić, called on the prosecution to begin performing its duties and to investigate abuses in the competitions for project co-financing of media projects, reminding that these criminal offenses do not become statute-barred for 20 years.

The Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) requests that, due to the scenes of violence broadcast on Pink television in recent evenings, the expert services of the Regulatory Authority determine violations of the Law on Electronic Media and that the Council of REM be urgently constituted in order to impose appropriate measures.

Marginalized topic, increasingly exploited for sensationalism and without including children as the most important actors in journalistic stories. This could be a brief summary of the findings from the research "Media Image of Children in Serbia 2025," which was presented today by the Center for Professionalization of Media and Media Literacy (CEPROM).

The Media Freedom Rapid Response (MFRR) platform today once again expresses concern over the undemocratic process by which the National Assembly conducted the latest election of members to the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media (REM), a key media regulator in Serbia.

In Novi Sad last night, several journalists were once again attacked. The president of the Management Board of the Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM), Veran Matić, told Mašina that all these attacks are obviously part of state policy, or rather an order to take action against journalists, as journalists are “the ones who present to the public everything that is happening.”

"From this perspective, it is completely clear that we will not have a new composition of the REM Council in the foreseeable future," stated Saša Mirković, a representative of ANEM and a previous candidate for a member of the REM Council in the first process, to Mašina.
