  • The campaign is ending. From tomorrow, only responsibility, work and what we are prepared to do after the words have been spoken remain. Thank you to every person I met, listened to and learned something from during these days. It is especially important to me that NES candidates conducted this campaign fairly, responsibly and with respect for people and political opponents. What remains behind us is the programme. What remains before us is the obligation to measure politics by work completed once again. Go out and vote on Sunday. Look at what each person has done

    Kampanja završava. Od sutra ostaju samo odgovornost, rad i ono što smo spremni uraditi nakon izgovorenih riječi. Hvala svakom čovjeku kojeg sam sreo, saslušao i od kojeg sam nešto naučio tokom ovih dana. Posebno mi je važno što su kandidati NES-a ovu kampanju vodili korektno, odgovorno i s poštovanjem prema ljudima i političkim protivnicima. Iza nas ostaje program. Pred nama ostaje obaveza da se politika ponovo mjeri završenim poslom. U nedjelju izađite na izbore. Pogledajte šta je ko uradio

  • What was missing from Sebija Izetbegović’s documentation? A certificate of passed examinations in her postgraduate studies in Zagreb. The University requested it, waited for it and checked through institutions. The response from Zagreb was clear: the document could not be issued because it does not exist.

    Šta je nedostajalo u dokumentaciji Sebije Izetbegović? Uvjerenje o položenim ispitima na postdiplomskom studiju u Zagrebu. Univerzitet ga je tražio, čekao i provjeravao kroz institucije. Odgovor iz Zagreba bio je jasan: dokument nije mogao biti izdat jer ne postoji.

Figures cover domestic political ads billed in US dollars, from 1 October 2025. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend.
