N1 television repeatedly contacted the SNS election headquarters requesting accreditation but received no response. However, SNS Presidency member and head of the party's Information Service, Vladanka Malović, responded to TV Nova.
"Given that your media group has decided that Aleksandar Vučić is not welcome and that it is 'not an option' for him to represent the 'Aleksandar Vučić – United Serbia' electoral list on your programs, the position of our election headquarters is that your presence is also 'not an option'," SNS stated, referring to journalists from all four outlets.
The decision follows N1's refusal to allow Vučić to represent the SNS electoral list during a scheduled election program, citing his years of insults and accusations against the network.
N1 invited SNS to send another representative, emphasizing that it remained willing to interview Vučić after the October 25 elections.
Following N1's announcement, Vučić and acting President Ana Brnabić accused the network of making a "fascist" decision.
