Prime Minister Duško Marković said that the Minister of Justice, Zoran Pažin, did not criticize the work of the Prosecutor's Office, but spoke about trust in the prosecutor's organization.
Asked if Pažin's statement about the Prosecutor's Office was a distancing from the Government's views regarding results in the area of the rule of law, Marković said that the Minister of Justice did not make value judgments.
"He spoke about the level of trust in the prosecution organization, and trust is a personal perception, and it is obtained on the basis of public opinion research. As you know, the level of trust in the work of the Government is also problematic, in the work of the Assembly and political parties," Marković told reporters in the Assembly.
He pointed out that it is not a question of conflict, but an analysis of "how citizens view our politics, not what we think of each other".

He also said that he received expert support from the Council of Europe and a positive opinion from the Venice Commission (VK), which recommended that we conduct additional consultations with all religious communities.
"Within that, I started a dialogue with the MCP, pointed out what we should do together in order to understand the content of the law, its need. We will probably renew that dialogue in the next few days. If there is agreement, that is good, and if not, "The government is going with the bill to the Parliament," said Marković.
He also said that he will present the final solutions to representatives of the Metropolis and ask for suggestions.
"If they are acceptable, we will accept them. If they are not, we will not. You know that they challenge the essence, the key provisions of the law. We cannot discuss that," said Marković and said that there will be no involvement of foreign experts.
"The Venice Commission is the most authoritative body of the Council of Europe that provides expertise in this case. It provided expertise. These are foreign experts, there are no others," he said.
