{"id":"SRB-056","notes":"PRE-AUTHORIZATION SIGNAL: Forms part of two-step authorization sequence with SRB-052 (Vučić Jan 7).

Brnabić Dec 2025 press conference → 7-day campaign Jan 2026 (SRB-CAMP-012). Exact same actor, exact same institutional moment, exact same timing — 13 months apart.

Brnabić frames independent CSO engagement in the REM process as politically motivated interference. This constitutes a pre-authorization signal — the second step in a two-step authorization sequence before the January 2026 coordinated campaign. Sequence: Brnabić December 2025 press conference → Vučić Informer TV January 7 → Kurir 7-day campaign January 9. Pattern match: Brnabić December 2023 press conference played identical pre-authorization role before the February 2025 raids (SRB-CAMP-006).","tactics":[{"code":"TC-02","role":"primary","label":"Political Authorization by State Actors","needs_review":false},{"code":"TC-49","role":"secondary","label":"Regulatory Body Deliberate Paralysis","needs_review":false}],"version":1,"channels":["Legacy Press","Official/Regulatory"],"entities":[{"id":869,"name":"Ana Brnabić","role":"actor","entity_type":"Senior Official"},{"id":944,"name":"Civil society engagement in REM process; Građanske inicijative","role":"target","entity_type":"CSO"}],"date_text":"Dec 2025","created_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","escalation":2,"harm_track":"Track 2 — Social Trust Erosion","narratives":[{"code":"NF-09","role":"primary","label":"Political Interference","needs_review":false},{"code":"NF-01","role":"secondary","label":"Foreign Agent / Foreign Influence","needs_review":false}],"report_ids":[],"signal_ids":["SIG-SRB-056"],"updated_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","occurred_on":"2025-12-01","campaign_ids":["SRB-CAMP-012"],"enabler_type":"","response_ids":[],"trigger_type":"TR-03: Institutional Process","campaign_phase":"Phase 1: Authorization","civic_response":"Not documented at this stage.","date_precision":"month","enabler_status":"","campaigns_served":[],"consequence_category":"Social Trust Erosion","institutional_consequence":"Narrative groundwork; pre-authorization of coordinated campaign"}
