Paja Francuski

During his time as an elected official, Francuski was a member of the League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina (LSV).

[6] In September 1999, he attended a meeting of the Socialist International's committee on local authorities with another member of the Serbian opposition.

[7] The LSV joined the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS), a broad and ideologically diverse coalition of parties opposed to Milošević's government, in 2000.

The DOS defeated Milošević in the 2000 Yugoslavian general election, an event that prompted wide-scale changes in Serbian politics.

[10] In the latter role, he took part in discussions about forming a public company for natural gas distribution in the province; in September 2003, he had to announce that this plan was being abandoned, as there were no viable options to provide a stable, safe, and cheap supply to consumers.

Francuski briefly returned to political life in 2012 as a member of the Preokret (English: U-Turn) coalition.
