On 24.7.2025, a press conference of the Serbian National Defense in America was held at the Press Center of the Association of Journalists of Serbia in Belgrade. The President of the Serbian National Defense, Archpriest Sasha Petrović, and the Second Vice President of the Serbian National Defense, Ms. Dragana Petrović from Chicago, spoke at the conference. At the conference, Father Sasha read the requests on behalf of the Serbian National Defense, after which journalists asked Father Sasha and Ms. Petrović questions. This event had a huge and positive impact on the Serbian public.
Dear brothers and sisters,
As the most respected Serbian national institution in the Diaspora, we are closely following the events in our Fatherland and all Serbian countries.
We are witnesses that Serbian youth on the streets of cities, who are demanding responsibility for the killing of innocent people during the collapse of the canopy in Novi Sad and the calling of parliamentary elections in Serbia, are being beaten up, arrested and demonized daily in the regime media. This is not the only crime of the usurpers of Serbia, but the Novi Sad tragedy is the last straw after 13 years of heartless suffering.
The criminal communist Udba regime that gave birth to the autocrat, robber and lying patriot Aleksandar Vučić is showing its true face, the one that was brought to power in Belgrade on Soviet tanks and in the blood and bones of Serbian Chetniks, homeowners, entrepreneurs and patriots since 1944 and has ruled unhindered to this day.
State violence has unfortunately become the rule in Serbia, and obedience to the authoritative cult of personality of Aleksandar Vučić is the measure of any success in the state system that originates from the dictatorial overcoat of Josip Broz from AVNOJ in 1943.
Forgive us from the diaspora that we may sound to you in Matica as if we have a fixed idea, but we cannot help but notice the huge number of troubles that directly originate from the communist regime. Whenever we scratch the problematic biographies, laws, institutions, parties, public figures, we always come up with the same specter. It is not normal for us that the head of state in 2025 compares himself with Josip Broz in terms of achievements.
The symptoms of this are the unanswered questions:
The crucifixion of holy Kosovo and Metohija; The signing of high-treasonous and unconstitutional agreements; The murder of Oliver Ivanovic, the secret death of lawyer Vladimir Cvijan; the cases of Jovanjica, Savamala, Krušik, Ribnikar, Orašje and Dubona, the helicopter crash, 2 minutes missing from the toll boot camera. Not to mention the fact that they want to turn Serbia into a tailings dump by mining lithium and other mineral treasures. At the same time, the betrayal and surrender of the holy land of Kosovo and Metohija to the occupying power of Albanian terrorists by the tyrant Vučić is taking place. In Serbian Krajina, every trace of the existence of Serbs and even Cyrillic inscriptions on cemeteries are being erased, and in North Macedonia, declared Serbs represent a statistical error, while the autocephalous Church is recognized by Tito’s schismatics and hundreds of Serbian holy places that our holy ancestors built are being handed over. In Montenegro, Serbs are still an easy target – whether it is discrimination regarding citizenship, cultural awards or the memory of the leaders of the Serbian National Uprising in WWII.
For all this, the Serbian National Defense from Chicago announces to everyone in the homeland and abroad that we are returning to the same familiar modus operandi of the SND that existed from 1945 to 1992 and that we will fight against the Udba system of the Republic of Serbia until we defeat this perverted system once and for all, as a remnant of Titoism against which we fought by all means.
And therefore we make the following demands:
1. The annulment of the unconstitutional and illegal republic and the restoration of the constitutional parliamentary Kingdom of Serbia by returning the throne to the Serbian Royal House of Karađorđević with the valid legal Family Regulations of April 5, 1930.
2. The liberation of all institutions, including the Serbian Orthodox Church, from the relics of communist services. First of all, through a) the formation of a Commission for the Investigation of the Crimes of Totalitarianism and Its Servants against the Serbian People 1945-2025 and b) Lustration from further political life of members of the League of Communists, the Socialist Party of Serbia, the Yugoslav Left, New Democracy, United Serbia, the Serbian Radical Party, the Serbian Progressive Party, the Movement of Socialists, the Party of United Pensioners of Serbia, as well as all political supporters of neo-Titoism.
3. Dispossession of Aleksandar and Andrej Vučić and confiscation of all property of the wider circle of the brotherocracy acquired outside of legal earnings, including related persons. And this by immediate seizure of property where the burden of proof will be on the lustrated individuals and related persons.
4. Opening of secret UDBA files on political opponents as well as collaborators of the servants of totalitarianism. Discovery of all mass graves of victims of communism under state institutions as well as lists of those killed. Insight by members of the Commission for the Investigation of Crimes into all private archives of the BIA, VBA, VOA that concern sensitive periods of Serbian history before and after 1945.
5. Clarifying the circumstances of the murder and revealing the names of the Udba murderers and those who ordered the barbaric murder of one of the most prominent members of the Serbian National Defense and editor of the newspaper “Sloboda” Dragiša Kasiković and his 9-year-old stepdaughter Ivanka Milošević in 1977 in the premises of the Serbian National Defense in Chicago.
In anticipation of a new Serbia based on the principles of the Serbian cultural pattern, support for students is a condition without which that Serbia is not possible. They are the backbone of Serbian integralism and constant resistance to usurper rule. The crown is not only a legitimate sovereign but also the only guarantee against the mistakes of the last 80 years of wandering.
As we continue to act, may God help us all!
