Oliver Dulić (Serbian Cyrillic: Оливер Дулић) (born 21 January 1975 in Belgrade) is a Serbian politician of Yugoslav origin, long-time member of Democratic Party, and incumbent president of the National Assembly of Serbia.[1].
Biography
Dulić was born in Belgrade, completed the primary and secondary school in his hometown Subotica, and graduated at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Belgrade in 1999, where he entered the postgraduate studies. He also completed the specialization on the University of Oslo. As of 2007, he was specializing orthopedic surgery and traumatology on the University of Belgrade.
He entered political life in 1996, when he was one of leaders of the students protest in Belgrade, and a member of his Initiative board, and later Otpor movement. He joined the Democratic Party in 1997. [2] He was the president of the party's local board in Subotica in two terms. From 2000 to 2006 he was vice-president of Provincial Board of DS in Vojvodina. He is also a member of the party's Main committee. From 2001 to 2003 Dulić was head of North Bačka District. In 2003, he was a MP of the Parliament of Serbia and Montenegro. On local elections 2003, he was beaten by the current mayor of Géza Kucsera by just a hundred votes[3] From 2006, he is a member of Presidency of Democratic Party.
Dulić was elected for the Speaker of the Serbian Parliament on 23 May 2007. He was supported by 136 deputies of newly formed ruling coalition of Democratic Party, Democratic Party of Serbia and G17 Plus, as well as by votes of "Vojvodina deputies" and national minorities deputy clubs. [4] His election ended the long-lasting institutional crisis which followed the 2007 elections. He succeeded the speaker position from Tomislav Nikolić of Serbian Radical Party, whose presidency lasted only 5 days, as result of a strange manoeuver within the ruling coalition tough negotiations.[5] At 32, he will be the youngest speaker in the history of Serbian parliament.[6]
