Mirko Jović (Serbian Cyrillic: Мирко Јовић; born 13 August 1959 in Zemun) is a Serbian politician who stood for president of Serbia in the 2004 Serbian presidential election for the People's Radical Party, Serbia and Diaspora, and European Blok. He lives in Belgrade.
Political career
Together with Vuk Drašković and Vojislav Šešelj, Jović founded the Serbian National Renewal (SNO) in 1989.[1] However, the trio soon found themselves at political crossroads and their party disintegrated into three pieces by 1990. Jović kept the SNO, Šešelj formed the Serbian Chetnik Movement and then the Serbian Radical Party[2] while Drašković formed the Serbian Renewal Movement.[1][3][4]
The unpopularity of the Jović's nationalist agenda was most markedly shown in Vojvodina, his home province.[citation needed] This animosity toward the SNO ideology culminated in the spontaneous mass beating of Jović and the leadership of the party during the party meeting in city of Vrbas in 1991.[citation needed] In 1996, the SNO was merged into the Serb Democratic Party.
He was a volunteer soldier in the Bosnian War, where he was the leader of the White Eagles[5][6][7][8] and called for "A Christian, Orthodox Serbia with no Muslims and no unbelievers".[5] In the 2004 Serbian presidential election he won 5,546 votes or 0.18% of the votes.[9]
