European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) President Maja Sever told N1 that Belgrade Mayor Aleksandar Sapic’s treatment of an N1 reporter was impermissible.
Sapic held a news conference last week, verbally assaulting and criticizing N1 reporter Miodrag Sovilj and claiming that N1 in general was biased against him.
Sever warned that Sapic’s behavior was not isolated and was not rare.
“It’s really impermissible for someone to behave like that towards reporters and cameramen,” she said.
“I would like to ask the president why he would do something like that – he simply is not behaving like a responsible politician,” she said.
