The National Assembly Speaker, Dr Nebojsa Stefanovic, received the students of the University of Belgrade Faculty of Political Science, Helena Ivanov and Stefan Siridzanski, who had successfully won a spot in the finals of the recent World Universities Debating Championship in India.

Stefanovic shared his pleasure at the young debaters’ success especially since, he added, debate is the essential part of every session.
