Never Sorry, or why apologies for Serb politicians generally act as a new insult – politics

False Vučićeva apologies

Just like that recent apology to Aleksandar Vučić, President of Serbia to journalists RTS from Nis Correspondence he called imbecils.

« To be clear, regardless of the torture through which I go through everyday, I think of the citizens of the mentioned reporters and I think that they are embarrassed for their profession, ie. I don’t think political activists. I believe that And in this apology, people see the difference, not only in responsibility, but also respect I show as different to thinking, « Vučić wrote.

Vučić is a politician who often apologies, and that these apologies mostly look like a new more insult. Once, as a deputy, President SNS apologized for Dane for Draconian fines in the 1990s, with the assessment that he would never behave again according to the press journalists. As far as the apology was honestly telling the daily targets of Danas that only do not contain « draconian fines from Seselj’s law ». And everything else is on the Vučić and Progressive menu.

And the progressistan Vladimir Đukanović apologized several times for spoken words, but his apologies for Aleksandra Vučić is due to the statement in which it natives « Denicification of the Balkans ».

« I am obliged to apologize here. I was a terrible irresponsible person today, I’ve been accepting an incredible avalanche, and my country for that tweet, but I accept my responsibility, » Djukanovic said.

Due to fear that they will jeopardize personal and party rating are absent

The interlocutors of Danas notes that human being wrong, because we are not machines and to apologize to someone represents a moral sense of responsibility.

Unfortunately, as they say, the word responsibility is not close to the politicians of government, but neither those in the opposition. They add that one apology for the « confusion of two presidents of Serbia and columbia in drug packs », would not reduce the importance of evidence amounts to the Vice President of the MARINIKA MARINIĆ TEPIĆ on the connection of state officials and criminal organizations.

On the contrary, as they say, an apology for error would cause a major effect in citizens from the ironic apology of Dragan Djilas Leaders, Journamore Krik Stevan Dojčinović

« Lord Dojčinović, in Marinikino, I apologize for the connections of state officials and criminal organizations. I really did not know that as an opposition party, we need to be silent, and, how you claim, I wrote Djilas on social networks.

Sociologist and professor at the Faculty of Philosophy Jovo Bakic believes that it would be nice to make an apology when wrong.

« This is probably not due to fear that it will be threatened with personal and party rating. Short-term, it probably so, but in the long run, the feeling of distrust in politicians and politics, » Bakic nemes.

An apology in the media does not bring clicks – but the scandal that

When asked why domestic politicians, Danijela Nestorović, is not about to prevent that, because it is therefore a true culture of apology, because an apology is not perceived as a virtue, but as a weakness.

« In a society with authoritarian regime, an apology is perceived as a confession of defeat, the weakness of character » loss « leadership » – which is wrong, but deeply rooted. When you try to blame the people’s eyes, empty stories that switch the focus from real problems, when you play something you are not, when you accuse and insult, then it’s a manipulation and lie. However, we are far from that this very simple word « sorry » was applied in Serbian politics, « explains Nestorović.

And as long as politicians, as he says, communicate through force, accusations and theatrical performances, we will hardly see honestly, responsible and human apology.

« The public feeds on conflict, not reconciliation. An apology in the media does not give the clicks – but the scandal is more engaged in the narrative control, but by fixing the damage », adds an ecological uprising.

Boris Tadic apologized for the affair « Bodrum », so won the election

Excuse me, as he says, Bojan Vranić, professor of FPN implies the moral sense of responsibility that we should strive for the truth, or even if we avoid a lie.

« Also, it also means that we are not machines, we are already human beings. In politics, the actors of excuses may be a matter of assessment. We have that a famous case in Serbian policy when Boris Tadic, then the leader DS, apologized to the « affair Bodrum ». I remember the testimony of Dejan Mijača, that he would have shown the human side of the candidate for the president, and it eventually brought victory, « Vranic nemes.

According to him, apology is healing, it is the reason for further conversation.

« We often know how to say » I’m sorry, but … « I can be a relationship, but it doesn’t take your responsibility from that, and that is a matter of a communications strategy. So who knows, knows, » FPN professor.

In serious democracies apologies is the beginning of the reconstruction of trust

The interlocutors of Danas remind them that the symbol of apologies became exactly one politician in the 1970s. It was a villa Brant the then chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, which kneeled spontaneously in Warsaw Ghetto before a monument of thousands of Jews – victims of Nazi Pogrom. The act brought Villa Brant a year later, 1971. Nobel Peace Prize. But neither is Serbia Germany, nor are Serbian politicians Brant.

In serious democracies, apologies is the beginning of the reconstruction of trust, and at us, as Stefan Janjic, Member of Serbia, near Political Career. And it says it all.

« In Serbian politics, an apology is to pronounce silent from whispers. Instead, you must recognize the pronunciation, three terms that obviously did not enter the government’s dictionary yet. And while we get it famously sorry If they were to blame theirselves that the state turned their backs. « Janjic points out.

The Serbian President undone shame

And the political analyst Dragomir Anđelković observes that President Srbjie completely undoed his behavior, that he did not apologize to anyone, but only new lies burst old.

Anđelković adds that other socio-political actors are spoiled in such a shameless and immoral atmosphere, but still far are than the bottom where the SNS cartel is with its leadership. In order to distinguish more that they differ from it, as it says, it would be good that opposition factors re-introduce in fashion apology as an important moral category.

Politicians have more important work than exclusivity

« If we mean both of us, and especially politicians, activists and journalists, which does not hold it to civilizational norms and elementary education, it does not mean that we need to send completely different messages. In the field of false, corruption and arrogance The aristocratic government will always win. The students seemed to realize it before than many others, « Nedim Sejdinovic told a journalist today.

Sejdinovic adds that this should be a lesson for all, which should be learned in classes of media and civic literacy.

« Every information should be made in public, especially if someone is provided with the story of being exclusive to the public and exclusivity. If we will be a reflection in the mirror of various Vučićević, Mitrovica, Krstić, Brnabićka and Vučić, then the best to We take off the diggers and hang them about the wedge, « he concludes the interlocutor of Danas.
