Mandić's cabinet on the "documentary" about Srebrenica: Neither we nor the Parliament have any contact with the Center for Social Stability

Parliament Speaker Andrija Mandić (New Serbian Democracy) and the Parliament of Montenegro have no contact with the Center for Social Stability from Novi Sad - Mandić's office told "Vijesti".

The Novi Sad Center for Social Stability announced yesterday on the social network "Iks" that the organization, in cooperation with the Montenegrin Parliament, will organize a screening of its "documentary" film "Anatomy of Deception - Srebrenica" today, and that Mandić will address the audience.

"The Center for Social Stability from Novi Sad, in cooperation with the Parliament of Montenegro, is organizing a screening of the documentary film 'Anatomy of Deception - Srebrenica' on Saturday, July 11, 2026, starting at 12:00. Before the screening, the President of the Parliament of Montenegro and the authors of the film will address the audience. We hereby invite the media to report on this event," the announcement reads.

The 31st anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide was commemorated today at the Potočari Memorial Center.

At the end of May, "Vijesti" wrote about the "documentary" by the Center for Social Stability, "Referendum - a story about invented freedom", which, among other things, claims that "the time is ripe for a new reexamination of the will of citizens or for the institutional association of territories where those who see their future together, not separately, live", and that Cetinje recorded "the biggest demographic explosion since World War II", because families there were "guarded by Italian soldiers", while the people of Cetinje were dying on battlefields across Yugoslavia.

This "documentary", made on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the referendum on Montenegrin independence, was broadcast on May 20 and 21 in two parts on two Montenegrin television stations with a national frequency - TV Prva and TV Adria, as well as on "Informer", "B92" and "Documentary TV" television stations in Serbia.

The interlocutors in the film include, among others, Serbian Minister of Culture Nikola Selaković, leader of the Democratic People's Party Milan Knežević, former leader of the bloc for a united state Predrag Bulatović, historian Aleksandar Raković...

For broadcasting that "documentary", the Agency for Audiovisual Media Services fined the television stations "Prva" and "Adria" 10.000 euros each in early June.

In mid-June, the Podgorica Higher State Prosecutor's Office filed a request with the Minor Offences Court in the capital to initiate misdemeanour proceedings against the Adria television station and the editor-in-chief of that media outlet for, as announced, violations of the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination. The Higher Prosecutor's Office explained that the proceedings were initiated in connection with the broadcast of the film "Srebrenica - Anatomy of a Deception".

The Center for Social Stability was founded in 2004, and they claim that from the beginning of their activities they have advocated for "promoting tolerance in public dialogue" and "strengthening awareness of the necessity of democracy as a political and social system." They describe themselves as the largest Serbian "think-thank" organization.

In recent years, they have been known as staunch defenders of Aleksandar Vučić's government in Serbia, and have been the organizers of "Citizens Against Blockades," rallies supporting the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), which are supposed to serve as a kind of counterbalance to the demonstrations of Serbian students and citizens who have been protesting against the regime there for a year and a half. In addition, they are the authors of "documentaries" that target opponents of the SNS government, students, journalists, and civil society activists, firmly defending Vučić's thesis of a "colored revolution."
