Government of National Salvation
The Government of National Salvation (Serbian: Влада народног спаса, romanized: Vlada narodnog spasa; German: Regierung der nationalen Rettung, abbr. VNS), also sometimes called the Nedić's government or Nedić's regime, was a puppet government within the Territory of the Military Commander in Serbia from 1941 to 1944. It is also called Nedić's government, or Nedić's regime. The government operated from 29 August 1941 to 4 October 1944. Unlike the government in Croatia at the time, this government never was not a state, and never had any international recognition, instead being part of the Territory of the Military Commander in Serbia
Many Serbs tolerated the regime. A part of the poluation actively supported it. Most Serbs found the regime unpopuilar: they supported one of the two factions, the Yugoslav Partisans or the royalist Chetniks.[1][2][3] Both fractions were though to be connected with to the Allied Powers. The Prime Minister throughout was General Milan Nedić. The Government of National Salvation was evacuated from Belgrade through Budapest to Kitzbühel in the first week of October 1944 before the German withdrawal from Serbia was complete.
