Occupation | Politician |
At one time a leading figure in the Serbian Renewal Movement (SPO), he founded the breakaway Movement for the Restoration of the Kingdom of Serbia (POKS) in 2017. In late 2021, the POKS became divided into rival groups led by Gojković and former Belgrade mayor Vojislav Mihailović. For several months, both Gojković and Mihailović claimed to be the legitimate leader of the party. Gojković legally headed the party until 1 August 2022, when the Serbian ministry of public administration and local self-government ruled in favour of Mihailović.[1][2] Gojković joined the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) in late 2023.
