Milan Ilić (politician)

Milan Ilić (Serbian Cyrillic: Милан Илић; born 23 March 1990) is a Serbian politician. He was elected to the National Assembly of Serbia in the 2020 parliamentary election as a member of the Serbian Progressive Party.

Private career edit

Ilić was born in Vranje, in what was then the Socialist Republic of Serbia in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.[1] He still lives in the city and was an economics student at the time of the 2020 election.[2]

Politician edit

Ilič sought election to the Vranje municipal assembly in the 2012 Serbian local elections as a candidate of the far-right Serbian Radical Party, appearing in the twenty-sixth position on that party's electoral list.[3] The list did not win any mandates.[4] He subsequently left the Radicals and joined the Progressive Party. Ilić is a member of the Progressive Party's city board in Vranje and has served in the party's Academy of Young Leaders program.[5]

Parliamentarian edit

Ilić was given the eighteenth position on the Progressive Party's Aleksandar Vučić — For Our Children list in the 2020 Serbian parliamentary election.[6] This was tantamount to election, and he was indeed elected when the list won a landslide majority with 188 mandates. He is a member of the committee on the diaspora and Serbs in the region; a deputy member of the European integration committee and the committee on labour, social issues, social inclusion, and poverty reduction; a deputy member of Serbia's delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Mediterranean; the leader of Serbia's parliamentary friendship group with Grenada; and a member of Serbia's parliamentary friendship groups with Armenia, the Czech Republic, France, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Russia, Slovakia, and the United Arab Emirates.[7]
