Tanjug - November 17, 2003

15:27 BELGRADE , Nov 17 (Tanjug) - Participants in a Press Club debate entitled "The Day After" at the Media Center of Belgrade said on Monday the results of yesterday's Serbian presidential elections are a great defeat for the DOS and announced that the political stage of Serbia would be "cleansed" at the upcoming parliamentary elections and result in the forming of major blocs.

Belgrade University Faculty of Philosophy Professor Slobodan Antonic said the historical and political existence of the DOS ended yesterday. The main reason for the failure of the elections, the most fair so far, in his opinon, is the great disappointment of the citizens in the nature of the political system, he said. They consider the system just a facade of democracy, he elaborated.
