At a press conference held on December 16, 2025, instead of answering a question from N1 television journalist Mladen Savatović regarding the responsibility of Culture Minister Nikola Selaković, President Vučić launched a series of accusations and insults. These included claims that the journalist “calls him Hitler,” repeated labels of “liar,” and other statements intended to humiliate and intimidate him.
