Co-chairs EU-Serbia Subcommittee on Justice, Freedom and Security. Rhetorical function: uses EU cooperation framework as platform to legitimize dismissal of international CSO monitoring data.

Three-track anti-CSO positioning in Ministry of Justice: (1) categorization of critical legal NGOs as \"unregistered political parties\"; (2) advocacy for HJC audit of judges speaking at NGO events; (3) framing \"foreign influence\" transparency laws as \"EU-standard\" financial monitoring.","x_/_twitter_handle":"","youtube_channel_/_url":""},"entity_type":"Senior Official","original_id":"ACT-SRB-066"}
