The Prime Minister of Serbia, Ana Brnabić, today, together with the ministers, laid a wreath at the entrance to the Government of Serbia, at the place where Zoran Đinđić, the first Prime Minister of Serbia after the dismissal of Slobodan Milošević and the victory of the opposition in the elections, was assassinated 17 years ago.
On the ribbon in the colors of the Serbian flag on the wreath is written "Dr Zoran Đinđić - Government of the Republic of Serbia".
Together with Prime Minister Brnabić, ministers Nebojša Stefanović, Siniša Mali, Rasim Ljajić, Zoran Đorđević, Branko Ružić, Slavica Đukić Dejanović, Mladen Šarčević, Nenad Popović, Goran Knežević, Branislav Nedimović, Zorana Mihajlović and Vanja Udovićič paid their respects to Đinđić.
Zoran Đinđić was killed on March 12, 2003 in the courtyard of the Serbian Government building, and Zvezdan Jovanović, an officer of the Special Operations Unit (JSO) of the Department of State Security, was sentenced to 40 years in prison for his murder. JSO commander Milorad Ulemek was sentenced to the same sentence for organizing the murder.
Đinđić was the first Prime Minister of Serbia after the fall of Slobodan Milošević's regime in 2000 and the coming to power of the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS), and during his mandate the process of democratization of society and radical economic and social reforms was initiated.
The political background of the murder of Djindjic has not been investigated.
