The Minister of Human and Minority Rights, Fatmir Đeka, announced that "due to the extremely inappropriate title of Vojislav Šešelj's publication, in which he calls out the former deputy of the Social Democratic Party, Draginja Vuksanović Stanković, on behalf of the Ministry of Human and Minority Rights and in his own name, he strongly condemns the use of offensive titles that encourage hate speech."

The president of the Serbian Radical Party (SRS) and Hague convict Vojislav Šešelj published a book in which he insults the former deputy of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) Draginja Vuksanović Stanković.

The title of Šešel's book is "Montenegrinska k*****tija Draginja Vuksanović".

"The media space should be a place where respect and understanding are emphasized, and not spread discrimination and hatred. Women in the public space are increasingly exposed to humiliation, an unacceptable culture of discrimination, which has a direct and wide impact on the spread of harmful stereotypes that hold our society back." pointed out Đeka in the announcement.

He added that book authors who title their works extremely inappropriately and offensively must bear responsibility for their words and actions.

"This act encourages a negative perception of women and harms both individuals and overall social progress towards achieving gender equality," Đeka said.
