According to the Tanjug news agency, on March 26, 2004, the Assembly of the Republic of Serbia adopted a special resolution on Kosovo and Metohija, which put forward a number of demands to representatives of the international community and defined the main provisions for solving the problem of the Province. The adopted resolution states in particular:
“The Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija, their property, Serbian holy sites, the whole of Serbia and the state union of Serbia and Montenegro, were once again subjected to massive and organized violence by Albanian separatists and terrorists...
Based on the need for the participation of the Serbian people, all citizens and government bodies in protecting the most important national and state interests, the Assembly of Serbia, as the highest representative body of Serbian citizens, puts forward the following positions and demands:
1. The pogrom of the Serbian population in Kosovo and Metohija from March 17 to 19, 2004 is a consequence of the unwillingness of UNMIK and KFOR to fulfill their responsibilities in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution No. 1244. This is a direct result of the transfer of powers from the international administration to the interim bodies of Kosovo.
2. The Albanian population behaved hostilely towards the Serbs even after the arrival of the civil and military mission to the Region in June 1999, as evidenced by the huge number of murders, arson and constant threats aimed at forcibly expelling the Serbs from the Region.
Therefore, it is clear that the events of March 17-19 are not unexpected, and the greater the responsibility of the international peacekeeping forces.
3. Along with increasing and better organizing international security forces, we demand that the international community vigorously investigate the crimes committed and punish those involved in organized violence.
We also demand that houses, churches and monasteries be immediately restored so that life can be restored to them and the futility of their plans is clearly shown to the Albanian terrorists.
4. The latest massive organized acts of violence by Albanians against Serbs, through which ethnic cleansing was carried out and stability in the entire region was threatened, clearly leads to the conclusion that it is necessary to review and change the entire UN policy in the Region.
5. In this case, the provisions of international law must be respected, and, above all, the provision on the immutability of borders, as well as UN Security Council Resolution No. 1244.
6. The Serbian Government undertakes to prepare a proposal for a political solution to the current situation in Kosovo and Metohija. This proposal must necessarily be based on the following provisions:
a) Kosovo and Metohija is an inseparable part of Serbia and the state union of Serbia and Montenegro.
b) Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija must have new institutional guarantees for their position and better protection of their rights.
c) Serbia must ensure the life, safety and return of the Kosovo-Metohija Serbs.
7. Our state, both according to its laws and international conventions, must protect cultural and historical monuments and religious sites in the Region. The burning of Serbian churches and monasteries during the latest wave of violence once again showed the desire of Albanian terrorists and separatists to change the cultural and historical picture in Kosovo and Metohija.
Therefore, it is necessary, along with a proposal for a political solution, to formulate effective forms of protection, some of which are contained in UN Security Council Resolution No. 1244.”
“We address this resolution to our citizens, relevant organizations and the entire world community, from whom we expect the understanding and response that the international fight against terrorism requires,” says the Resolution adopted by the Assembly.
National Assembly of Serbia(Serb. People's Assembly of Srbije listen)) is the highest legislative and constitutional body in Serbia. Unicameral, consists of 250 deputies ( people's message), who according to the constitution are elected by free and secret ballot for 4 years.

Communist regime and one-party system
In 1944, the Communist Party of Yugoslavia took power in Yugoslavia and Serbia. Serbia became one of the six republics of the new federal state. From November 9 to November 12, 1944, the Anti-Fascist People's Liberation Assembly of Serbia met. 989 deputies elected by the people took part in it.
The democratic opposition of Serbia received 176 parliamentary seats. Dragan Maršičanin became the Chairman of the Assembly, and Zoran Djindjic became the Prime Minister of Serbia.
2003
New early elections to the Serbian Assembly took place in December 2003. This time, the Serbian Radical Party took the most parliamentary seats - 82. Dragan Maršičanin remained the chairman of the parliament (he was later replaced by Predrag Marković), and Vojislav Kostunica was elected chairman of the Serbian government.
During 2005, the Assembly adopted the most laws in the history of Serbian parliamentarism - about 200. In addition, several state documents on the status of Kosovo and Metohija were adopted.
2007
In early elections in January 2007, the Serbian Radical Party again received the most seats. The first meeting of the convocation assembly was held on February 14. On May 8, Tomislav Nikolic was elected chairman of the assembly, but was later removed from this position. On May 15, a new government headed by Vojislav Kostunica was elected.

Building
The Assembly building is located in the center of Belgrade on Nikola Pasic Square and is depicted on the 5,000 dinar banknote. The Serbian Parliament moved into this building on July 23. Previously, the parliament of Serbia and Montenegro was located there, and even earlier - of Yugoslavia.
Construction of the building began in 1907, the first stone was laid by the Serbian king Peter I Karageorgievich. The building was built according to the plan of Konstantin Jovanovic in 1891, with modifications by Jovan Ilkic in 1901. The Balkan Wars and the First World War, as well as a shortage of money, prevented the completion of construction. During the First World War in 1917, J. Ilkic died in captivity, and in 1920, the continuation of construction was entrusted to Jovan Ilkic’s son, Pavel. The interior was created by Nikolai Krasnov. Construction of the building was completed in 1936. The sculpture “Playing with Black Horses” by Toma Rosadić appeared in front of the building in .

Excerpt characterizing the National Assembly of Serbia
“There will be a okotnik,” the German answered, smiling.Everyone looked back at the door: it creaked, and the second princess, having made the drink shown by Lorren, took it to the sick man. The German doctor approached Lorrain.
- Maybe it will last until tomorrow morning? - asked the German, speaking bad French.
Lorren, pursing his lips, sternly and negatively waved his finger in front of his nose.
“Tonight, not later,” he said quietly, with a decent smile of self-satisfaction in the fact that he clearly knew how to understand and express the patient’s situation, and walked away.
Meanwhile, Prince Vasily opened the door to the princess’s room.
The room was dim; only two lamps were burning in front of the images, and there was a good smell of incense and flowers. The entire room was furnished with small furniture: wardrobes, cupboards, and tables. The white covers of a high down bed could be seen from behind the screens. The dog barked.
- Oh, is it you, mon cousin?
She stood up and straightened her hair, which had always, even now, been so unusually smooth, as if it had been made from one piece with her head and covered with varnish.
- What, did something happen? – she asked. “I’m already so scared.”
- Nothing, everything is the same; “I just came to talk to you, Katish, about business,” said the prince, wearily sitting down on the chair from which she had risen. “How did you warm it up, however,” he said, “well, sit here, causons.” [let's talk.]
– I was wondering if something had happened? - said the princess and with her unchanged, stone-stern expression on her face, she sat down opposite the prince, preparing to listen.
“I wanted to sleep, mon cousin, but I can’t.”
- Well, what, my dear? - said Prince Vasily, taking the princess’s hand and bending it downwards according to his habit.
It was clear that this “well, what” referred to many things that, without naming them, they both understood.
The princess, with her incongruously long legs, lean and straight waist, looked directly and dispassionately at the prince with her bulging gray eyes. She shook her head and sighed as she looked at the images. Her gesture could be explained both as an expression of sadness and devotion, and as an expression of fatigue and hope for a quick rest. Prince Vasily explained this gesture as an expression of fatigue.
“But for me,” he said, “do you think it’s easier?” Je suis ereinte, comme un cheval de poste; [I'm as tired as a post horse;] but still I need to talk to you, Katish, and very seriously.
Prince Vasily fell silent, and his cheeks began to twitch nervously, first on one side, then on the other, giving his face an unpleasant expression that had never appeared on Prince Vasily’s face when he was in the living rooms. His eyes were also not the same as always: sometimes they looked brazenly joking, sometimes they looked around in fear.
The princess, holding the dog on her knees with her dry, thin hands, looked carefully into the eyes of Prince Vasily; but it was clear that she would not break the silence with a question, even if she had to remain silent until the morning.
“You see, my dear princess and cousin, Katerina Semyonovna,” continued Prince Vasily, apparently not without an internal struggle as he began to continue his speech, “in moments like now, you need to think about everything.” We need to think about the future, about you... I love you all like my children, you know that.
The princess looked at him just as dimly and motionlessly.
“Finally, we need to think about my family,” Prince Vasily continued, angrily pushing the table away from him and not looking at her, “you know, Katisha, that you, the three Mamontov sisters, and also my wife, we are the only direct heirs of the count.” I know, I know how hard it is for you to talk and think about such things. And it’s not easier for me; but, my friend, I’m in my sixties, I need to be prepared for anything. Do you know that I sent for Pierre, and that the count, directly pointing to his portrait, demanded him to come to him?
Prince Vasily looked questioningly at the princess, but could not understand whether she was understanding what he told her or was just looking at him...
“I never cease to pray to God for one thing, mon cousin,” she answered, “that he would have mercy on him and allow his beautiful soul to leave this world in peace...
“Yes, that’s so,” Prince Vasily continued impatiently, rubbing his bald head and again angrily pulling the table pushed aside towards him, “but finally... finally the thing is, you yourself know that last winter the count wrote a will, according to which he has the entire estate , in addition to the direct heirs and us, he gave it to Pierre.
“You never know how many wills he wrote!” – the princess said calmly. “But he couldn’t bequeath to Pierre.” Pierre is illegal.
“Ma chere,” said Prince Vasily suddenly, pressing the table to himself, perking up and starting to speak quickly, “but what if the letter was written to the sovereign, and the count asks to adopt Pierre?” You see, according to the Count’s merits, his request will be respected...
The princess smiled, the way people smile who think they know the matter more than those they are talking to.
“I’ll tell you more,” continued Prince Vasily, grabbing her hand, “the letter was written, although not sent, and the sovereign knew about it.” The only question is whether it is destroyed or not. If not, then how soon will it all be over,” Prince Vasily sighed, making it clear that he meant by the words everything will end, “and the count’s papers will be opened, the will with the letter will be handed over to the sovereign, and his request will probably be respected. Pierre, as a legitimate son, will receive everything.
– What about our unit? - asked the princess, smiling ironically, as if anything but this could happen.
- Mais, ma pauvre Catiche, c "est clair, comme le jour. [But, my dear Catiche, it is clear as day.] He alone is the rightful heir of everything, and you will not get any of this. You should know, my dear, were the will and the letter written, and were they destroyed? And if for some reason they are forgotten, then you should know where they are and find them, because...
- This was all that was missing! – the princess interrupted him, smiling sardonically and without changing the expression of her eyes. - I am a woman; according to you, we are all stupid; but I know so well that an illegitimate son cannot inherit... Un batard, [Illegitimate,] - she added, hoping with this translation to finally show the prince his groundlessness.
- Don’t you understand, finally, Katish! You are so smart: how do you not understand - if the count wrote a letter to the sovereign in which he asks him to recognize his son as legitimate, it means that Pierre will no longer be Pierre, but Count Bezukhoy, and then he will receive everything in his will? And if the will and the letter are not destroyed, then nothing will remain for you except the consolation that you were virtuous et tout ce qui s"en suit, [and everything that follows from here]. This is true.
– I know that the will has been written; but I also know that it is invalid, and you seem to consider me a complete fool, mon cousin,” said the princess with the expression with which women speak when they believe that they have said something witty and insulting.
“You are my dear Princess Katerina Semyonovna,” Prince Vasily spoke impatiently. “I came to you not to pick a fight with you, but to talk about your own interests as with my dear, good, kind, true relative.” I’m telling you for the tenth time that if a letter to the sovereign and a will in favor of Pierre are in the count’s papers, then you, my dear, and your sisters, are not the heir. If you don’t believe me, then trust people who know: I just spoke with Dmitry Onufriich (he was the house’s lawyer), he said the same thing.
Apparently something suddenly changed in the princess’s thoughts; her thin lips turned pale (the eyes remained the same), and her voice, while she spoke, broke through with such peals that she, apparently, herself did not expect.
“That would be good,” she said. – I didn’t want anything and don’t want anything.
She threw her dog off her lap and straightened the folds of her dress.
“That’s gratitude, that’s gratitude to the people who sacrificed everything for him,” she said. - Wonderful! Very good! I don't need anything, prince.
“Yes, but you are not alone, you have sisters,” answered Prince Vasily.
But the princess did not listen to him.
“Yes, I knew this for a long time, but I forgot that except baseness, deception, envy, intrigue, except ingratitude, the blackest ingratitude, I could expect nothing in this house...
– Do you know or don’t know where this will is? - asked Prince Vasily with an even greater twitching of his cheeks than before.
– Yes, I was stupid, I still believed in people and loved them and sacrificed myself. And only those who are vile and nasty succeed. I know whose intrigue it is.
The princess wanted to get up, but the prince held her hand. The princess had the appearance of a person who had suddenly become disillusioned with the entire human race; she looked angrily at her interlocutor.
“There is still time, my friend.” You remember, Katisha, that all this happened by accident, in a moment of anger, illness, and then forgotten. Our duty, my dear, is to correct his mistake, to make his last moments easier by preventing him from committing this injustice, not letting him die in the thoughts that he made those people unhappy...
“Those people who sacrificed everything for him,” the princess picked up, trying to get up again, but the prince did not let her in, “which he never knew how to appreciate.” No, mon cousin,” she added with a sigh, “I will remember that in this world one cannot expect a reward, that in this world there is neither honor nor justice.” In this world you have to be cunning and evil.
- Well, voyons, [listen,] calm down; I know your beautiful heart.
- No, I have an evil heart.
“I know your heart,” the prince repeated, “I value your friendship and would like you to have the same opinion of me.” Calm down and parlons raison, [let's talk properly] while there is time - maybe a day, maybe an hour; tell me everything you know about the will, and, most importantly, where it is: you must know. We will now take it and show it to the count. He probably already forgot about it and wants to destroy it. You understand that my only desire is to sacredly fulfill his will; I just came here then. I'm only here to help him and you.
– Now I understand everything. I know whose intrigue it is. “I know,” said the princess.
- That’s not the point, my soul.
- This is your protegee, [favorite,] your dear princess Drubetskaya, Anna Mikhailovna, whom I would not want to have as a maid, this vile, disgusting woman.
– Ne perdons point de temps. [Let's not waste time.]
- Ax, don't talk! Last winter she infiltrated here and said such nasty things, such nasty things to the Count about all of us, especially Sophie - I cannot repeat it - that the Count became ill and did not want to see us for two weeks. At this time, I know that he wrote this vile, vile paper; but I thought that this paper meant nothing.
– Nous y voila, [That’s the point.] why didn’t you tell me anything before?
– In the mosaic briefcase that he keeps under his pillow. “Now I know,” said the princess without answering. “Yes, if there is a sin behind me, a great sin, then it is hatred of this scoundrel,” the princess almost shouted, completely changed. - And why is she rubbing herself in here? But I will tell her everything, everything. The time will come!
While such conversations took place in the reception room and in the princess's rooms, the carriage with Pierre (who was sent for) and with Anna Mikhailovna (who found it necessary to go with him) drove into the courtyard of Count Bezukhy. When the wheels of the carriage sounded softly on the straw spread under the windows, Anna Mikhailovna, turning to her companion with comforting words, was convinced that he was sleeping in the corner of the carriage, and woke him up. Having woken up, Pierre followed Anna Mikhailovna out of the carriage and then only thought about the meeting with his dying father that awaited him. He noticed that they drove up not to the front entrance, but to the back entrance. While he was getting off the step, two people in bourgeois clothes hurriedly ran away from the entrance into the shadow of the wall. Pausing, Pierre saw several more similar people in the shadows of the house on both sides. But neither Anna Mikhailovna, nor the footman, nor the coachman, who could not help but see these people, paid no attention to them. Therefore, this is so necessary, Pierre decided to himself and followed Anna Mikhailovna. Anna Mikhailovna walked with hasty steps up the dimly lit narrow stone staircase, calling Pierre, who was lagging behind her, who, although he did not understand why he had to go to the count at all, and even less why he had to go up the back stairs, but , judging by the confidence and haste of Anna Mikhailovna, he decided to himself that this was necessary. Halfway up the stairs, they were almost knocked down by some people with buckets, who, clattering with their boots, ran towards them. These people pressed against the wall to let Pierre and Anna Mikhailovna through, and did not show the slightest surprise at the sight of them.
