The decision is in Mandic's hands.

If at least 20 MPs decide to block the work, at least the same number of security or police officers will be needed to physically remove them from the plenary hall.

In order to adopt the budget, the government has two options - either to agree to the opposition's request and annul the decision to retire Constitutional Court judge Dragana Đuranović, or to call security to remove the opposition from the parliament hall.

This happened in the past with MPs from the former Democratic Front (DF), who were arrested after causing riots following the passage of the Law on Freedom of Religion.

If at least 20 MPs decide to block the work, it will take at least the same number of security or police officers to physically remove them from the plenary hall.

This would once again resurface images from the legislative chamber, such as those from 2019 when the Law on Freedom of Religion was being adopted and DF MPs were expelled, or two years earlier when DF MPs attacked their DPS colleagues after their leaders Andrija Mandić and Milan Knežević's immunity was lifted so that they could be tried in a "coup d'état" case.

What the rules of procedure now allow the Speaker of Parliament from the former DF, Andrija Mandić, see in the report on Television Vijesti.
