Palalić opposed a state visit by Joseph Biden to Serbia in 2009 , accusing the American vice-president of being anti-Serb . He spoke against the prospect of Serbia joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization ( NATO ) at the same time , saying , " Serbia has no place in an organization that bombed Serbia and the Republika Srpska , occupied Kosovo-Metohija , and supported the independence of that phoney state . " He later opposed a 2010 resolution by the Serbian Assembly apologizing for the Srebrenica massacre , on the grounds that it inappropriately placed blame on Serbs as a people . He was quoted as saying , " This will put a burden on all future generations in Serbia , by saying that Serbia is responsible and failed to prevent everything that happened in Srebrenica . " Serbia 's electoral system was reformed in 2011 , such that parliamentary mandates were awarded in numerical order to candidates on successful lists . Palalić received the eighteenth position on the DSS 's list and was re-elected when the list won twenty-one mandates . The party once again served in opposition . He was promoted to the eleventh position on the party 's list for the 2014 election but failed to be re-elected when the party failed to cross the electoral threshold needed to win representation in the assembly . He subsequently left the DSS
