The Constitutional Court decided on December 5, 2013, that some provisions of the Statute of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina were not in line with Serbia's Constitution and set a deadline of 6 months to correct that.
The SNS, as the strongest political party in Serbia, accepts the initiative by DS Vice President Miodrag Rakić to discuss the statute with the DS outside of the working group tasked with the issue, which was formed by the Vojvodina assembly, Selaković told Tanjug.

Rakić wrote an article for the daily Politika, in which he says the issue concerning Vojvodina is a fundamental issue of autonomy, which has to be settled through political agreement if there is desire for a stable and long-term solution.

The DS has to work every day on solving that and other issues, regardless of whether the SNS is currently willing to make decisions that are difficult for it, he pointed out.
