Naš Pečat
The company Naš Pečat is the publisher of the weekly Pečat and the Serbian edition of the Russian magazine Argumenti i Fakti, which it has been publishing since 2018. Naš Pečat AD is a closed joint-stock company whose ownership cannot be checked in public registers. However, in 2017, this company submitted to the Agency for Business Registers a certificate indicating that Milorad Vučelić owns 100% of the company. Vučelić was the general manager of the company until 2017 when he was appointed acting editor-in-chief and editor-in-chief of Večernje novosti and all editions of the Novosti company.
Documents published on the website of the Agency for Business Registers show that in 2012, Baam Trade was listed as the founder of the company and that the sole owners of the company are Ana and Branislav Vučelić, children of Milorad Vučelić. Today, however, Naš Pečat AD is the owner of 79.7 percent of this company, whose main registered activity is the recording and publishing of sound recordings and music. Ana and Branislav Vučelić are co-owners with a 10.14% share each.

Affiliated Interests Founder
Is a journalist and former member of the Socialist Party of Serbia. He was born in 1948 and graduated from the Faculty of Law in Belgrade. He was the CEO of RTV Novi Sad and wrote for the Politika and NIN. He became the editor of NIN in 1985 and held that position until 1991. He was also the manager of "Zvezdara teatar" and the artistic director of "Budva grad teatar." From 1992 to 1995, he was the CEO of RTS, when this television was a propaganda instrument of the Milošević regime. Although he presents himself as a leftist and an admirer of Che Guevara, Vučelić was close to the nationalist and dictator Slobodan Milošević in the 90s. He left the Socialist Party of Serbia in 1995 but returned from 1997 to 1998. From 1997 to 1999, he was the president of the Management Board of AD Telekom Srbija and became president of the Handball Association of Yugoslavia.
After the murder of the democratic Prime Minister Zoran Đinđić in 2003, Vučelić was arrested in a police operation called Sablja. In addition, the investigative show, and now the web portal, Insajder, published a police report stating that Vučelić was involved in cigarette smuggling in the 90s, which he denied. He became the vice president of the SPS in 2003 and came second in the 2006 elections for the Party president, behind Ivica Dačić.
He founded the Pečat Weekly in 2008 and was its editor-in-chief.
Today, he is close to the ruling Serbian Progressive Party, which he often publicly defends.
In October 2015, as the vice president of the Partizan Football Club, he was unanimously elected as the first man of the Partizan Yugoslav Sports Association, and a year later, he was elected as the president of the Partizan Football Club. He resigned from the post in August 2023.
In September 2017, he was appointed acting editor-in-chief of Večernje novosti and all publications of the Novosti company.
Patriarch Porfirije awarded him the Order of Saint Sava for "many years of successful cooperation, journalistic professionalism, and affirmation of Christian values and virtues" in 2021.
