Veljko Lalić is Serbian journalist, editor and publicist.

He is the editor-in-chief and owner of Nedeljnik,[1] popular news magazine in Serbia, publisher of the Serbian edition of The New York Times [2], Le Monde diplomatique,[3] and numerous other publications and books.

Lalić is the author of several books on history, including a Serbian bestseller on Prince Paul and the Coup of March 27, 1941.[4]

He holds a master's degree from the University of Belgrade, and specialization from Faculty of Political Science, BU. He studied two faculties journalism and philosophy.



Surveillance case

In February 2020, after Serbia's then Defence Minister Aleksandar Vulin commented on an article "by Mr Dragan Sutanovac in Nedeljnik" that has never been published by the newspaper, the Serbian public reacted and called out for the investigation.

How Vulin had the access to private email correspondence between Lalić and Šutanovac, was Nedeljnik under surveillance - those were the most pressing issues of this case.[5]

Reporters Without Borders (RSF) called out on the Serbian authorities to investigate the possibility that the government spied on and intercepted emails between an opposition politician and the independent weekly Nedeljnik. The investigation's findings must be made public, RSF said.[6]

"We are concerned that emails between opposition politicians and independent media outlets are being spied on and intercepted by the government," RSF editor-in-chief Pauline Adès-Méve said. "We call on the authorities to shed all possible light on this matter." Nedeljnik wanted a separate and independent Commision that would find out the truth.[7]
