- Kurir deploys network control framing against Dragan Popovic (Centar za prakticnu politiku) and Maja Stojanovic (Gradjanske inicijative) — married couple framed as controlling entire Serbian NGO sector. Claim: they direct foreign donation flows by political criteria, create new NGOs as parapolitical infrastructure. Popovic attacked for appearing on N1 to contextualize post-Slavija violence. Four related Kurir articles linked — sustained campaign against Gradjanske inicijative. Published day before Slavija protest anniversary coverage.
