2020 management board dismissal controversy
[edit]In February 2020 telephone session the National Council of the Romanian National Minority dismissed the Management Board and appointed new members of that body.[3] The 20 staff members of the newspaper's publishing house (including the director Niku Čobanu) strongly condemned the action of the Romanian National Council.[3] The decision was criticized by the League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina as an attempt to turn Libertatea into a bulletin of the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS).[3] The decision was criticized by the opposition Alliance for Serbia as well.[3]
