Vuk Obradović
Vuk Obradović was a Serbian general and politician. He was one of the leaders of the Democratic Opposition of Serbia in the Bulldozer Revolution in October 2000.
Before his political career, he was a professional soldier and become the youngest General in the Yugoslav National Army. He held a PhD in political studies, having defended a thesis on issues of nationalism in Yugoslav society. He resigned from the Army in May 1992, when the government refused to withdraw Yugoslav Army conscripts from fighting in Croatia.
After leaving the army, he formed the Social Democracy political party and remained its leader for almost 10 years. In 1997, he stood as a candidate in the Yugoslav presidential elections winning 3.04% of the popular vote. In 2000, he joined the Democratic Opposition of Serbia which finally toppled Slobodan Milošević in October that year. He became the Deputy Prime Minister in the Government of Serbia tasked with leading the drive against corruption. In May 2001, he was forced to resign due to an allegation of sexual harassment of a female aide Ljiljana Nestorović, leading to the break-up of Social Democracy party into two factions.
In 2002, he was once again a candidate in the presidential election, this time winning only 0.73% of the popular vote.
