BELGRADE - Serbian Parliament Speaker Ana Brnabic said on Wednesday 41 opposition MPs had filed a motion to relieve her of duty over a lack of a debate on the 2025 budget, and noted that the opposition itself had announced there would be no session on the matter and caused incidents in the parliament.

Brnabic noted that she had done everything in her power for a debate to go ahead and that this had been evident to all citizens, regardless of whether they supported the ruling coalition or opposition parties.

"Everyone was able to see for themselves who did everything in their power for the budget law to be debated and who did everything they could for the session not to be held, and previously also announced that there would be no session and that it would be blocked," Brnabic told a press conference.

She quoted a statement by Democratic Party MP Srdjan Milivojevic that "we will not have a session on the budget" and a post by Freedom and Justice Party MP Marinika Tepic, who has written on X that "we have succeeded in interrupting a session they wanted to hold - we will not let this session be continued."
