{"id":"SRB-051","notes":"Vulin is US Treasury OFAC-sanctioned — his role as legislative champion of foreign agent law is analytically significant. Part of escalating 2024 legislative pressure sequence leading to SRB-CAMP-007 culmination.","country":"Serbia","sources":[{"url":null,"citation":"Civic Initiatives \"Weaponizing Influence\" report, October 2024; NIN reporting May 2024"}],"summary":"Socialists' Movement MP Bojan Torbica formally proposes foreign agent law in Serbian parliament at direction of Vice Prime Minister Aleksandar Vulin (March-May 2024). Vulin had publicly advocated for the law in multiple TV appearances from March 2024: 'Anyone who receives money from abroad is a foreign agent — like in America, we will create a list.' Parliamentary proposal calls for all foreign-funded organizations to be denied government funding and labeled foreign agents. Vulin — sanctioned by US Treasury OFAC — frames proposal using FARA equivalence despite US Embassy Sarajevo having explicitly rejected this framing in RS context. Distinct from SRB-014 (2023 draft law) and SRB-029 (2021 Šešelj authorization signal) — this is a formal 2024 parliamentary proposal invoking explicit FARA framing.","tactics":[{"code":"TC-23","role":"primary","label":"Foreign Agent Legislation","needs_review":false}],"version":1,"channels":["Parliament / State TV"],"entities":[{"id":933,"name":"Aleksandar Vulin; Bojan Torbica (MP)","role":"actor","entity_type":"Government Official"},{"id":888,"name":"All foreign-funded CSOs","role":"target","entity_type":"Sector"}],"date_text":"May 2024","created_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","escalation":3,"harm_track":"Track 1 — Legal/Administrative","narratives":[{"code":"NF-01","role":"primary","label":"Foreign Agent / Foreign Influence","needs_review":false}],"report_ids":[],"signal_ids":["SIG-SRB-051"],"updated_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","occurred_on":"2024-05-01","campaign_ids":["SRB-CAMP-007"],"enabler_type":"","response_ids":[],"trigger_type":"TR-06: Legislative Milestone","campaign_phase":"Phase 4: Institutional Operationalization","civic_response":"","date_precision":"month","enabler_status":"","campaigns_served":[],"consequence_category":"Legal/Administrative","institutional_consequence":"Legislation introduced; Chilling effect"}
