Branislav Nedimović (Serbian Cyrillic: Бранислав Недимовић, born 27 November 1977) is a Serbian politician. He has served as the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy in the Government of Serbia since 11 August 2016.
Biography
Nedimović completed elementary school and high school in his hometown of Sremska Mitrovica. He graduated from the University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Law with a bachelor's degree.[2][clarification needed]
He was elected a Member of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia in 2003 as a member of the Democratic Party of Serbia. He was re-elected MP in 2008, but resigned due to accepting the position of the mayor of Sremska Mitrovica. He left the Democratic Party of Serbia in the same year, and was active in the "Mitrovica European Region" movement, which has had cooperation with the Democratic Party (not the same as the Democratic Party of Serbia) since 2009 which he joined at the end of 2010. He served as the mayor of Sremska Mitrovica until 2016.[2]
In 2015, he joined the Serbian Progressive Party, and since 2016 he has been a member of the presidency. He is also the Vice President of the board of directors of the National Alliance for Local and Economic Development.[3]
On 11 August 2016, he was appointed as a Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy in Vučić's administration.[2]
In February 2017, the Prime Minister of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić declared that he will run for president at the 2017 Serbian presidential elections.[4] He won the elections in the first round beating Saša Janković with 55.06% of the votes and was sworn in as the President of Serbia on 31 May 2017.[5] Weeks later, he gave mandate to Ana Brnabić to form the new cabinet. On 29 June 2017, the cabinet of Ana Brnabić was formed, with Nedimović keeping his office.[6]
In April 2020, he was named as the head of the Serbian Crisis Staff for Nišava and Toplica District to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]
He was selected as a ballot carrier for the Serbian Progressive Party for the 2020 Serbian parliamentary election.[8]
Personal life
Nedimović has been playing football since elementary school, and currently plays for FK Sloga Zasavica in the Sremska Mitrovica League. Among all registered UEFA players, except for Branislav Nedimović, there is no minister of any government in Europe to officially play football for a team competing in an organized league.[9] Nedimović is married and has two children.[2]
