Grand Prior of Serbia contests elections in Nis, Serbia

Great results and a monumental victory for our team of brothers and sisters in Nis, Serbia. According to CeSID projections, the opposition list led by prominent cardiologist Dragan Milic took 16 seats followed by the ‘We Choose Nis’ coalition with 10, the ‘United for Nis’ coalition with three and the Kreni-Promeni [Move-Change] movement of lawyer and environmental activist Savo Manojlovic with two.

Dragan Milić (born August 12, 1965) is the Grand Prior of Serbia of the Order and is a Serbian cardiac surgeon, university professor and politician who is currently the director of the Clinic for Cardiac Surgery in Niš. He was elected to the City Assembly of Niš in the 2024 local elections after his citizens' group placed second with around 25% of the popular vote. Under his leadership, the clinic removed all the waiting lists for surgeries. He was appointed associate professor at the Faculty of Medicine in Niš in 2019, but was fired in May 2024 due to political interference by the authorities.

The Supreme Grand Priories is proud to have Dr. Milic as part of our Lazarite team and wish him well in his efforts to better the position of his fellow countrymen.s
