Serbian politicians criticize Studentska lista over Kosovo remarks

Serbian political figures have launched sharp criticisms against the Studentska lista party following comments made during a televised pre-election debate on RTS. The controversy arose after representative Nemanja Karović compared the situation of Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija to living in the wider region, and used the phrase ‘citizens of Kosovo.’

Marina Raguš, representing the Aleksandar Vučić – United Serbia list, accused the party of effectively recognizing Kosovo's independence by treating it as a separate region rather than part of Serbia. Similarly, SNS Vice President Ana Brnabić criticized the party's perceived inconsistency, noting that while they previously described Kosovo's status as a matter for negotiations, their recent rhetoric suggests they view it as a state.

Brnabić further alleged that Studentska lista receives support from Pristina-based interests and various European politicians, including Albin Kurti, citing their influence on the party's platform.
