Božidar Đelić (Serbian Cyrillic: Божидар Ђелић, pronounced [bɔ̌ʒidaːr dʑɛ̌ːlitɕ]), (born April 1, 1965 in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, now Serbia) is a Serbian economist and politician. He was the Serbian Minister of finance in the first post-Milošević government of Zoran Đinđić in 2001-2003, and vice-president of the government from May 2007 to December 2011, from the list of Democratic Party.

Đelić was born in Belgrade in 1965, as the only child. His parents divorced soon after his birth and went abroad in search of better prospects, while Božidar stayed behind in Belgrade where he was raised by his maternal grandparents. Đelić later described his grandmother Mileva as the strongest figure in his childhood. When his grandparents died in 1973, he moved to Paris to live with his mother and stepfather. When her small business collapsed, the family got into difficult financial situation, and Božidar had to help by washing dishes and cleaning windows, while studying in parallel.

Dragan Đilas (Serbian: Драган Ђилас, born February 22, 1967 in Belgrade, Serbia, SFR Yugoslavia) is a Serbian politician and businessman. He is the current mayor of Belgrade and a member of the Democratic Party.

He previously served as the Minister without Portfolio in charge of the National Investment Plan in the 2007-2008 Cabinet of Serbia and as the Director of the People's Office of the President between 2004 and 2007.

Đilas graduated from the University of Belgrade Faculty of Mechanical Engineering in the aerospace engineering program. He worked as journalist at Radio Index. On May 15, 1989, a part of Radio Index merged with Ritam Srca radio programme thus forming Radio B92, meaning that Đilas was one of the new station's founders. He soon became a news editor at the station.

Simultaneously, Đilas was active in opposing the regime of Slobodan Milošević, leading the student protest in 1991 and 1992. In the days following the violent March 9th Protest in 1991 that claimed two lives and the ensuing student clashes with the police, Milošević (at that time the President of Serbia) came to the University of Belgrade in order to face the students, and Đilas got a chance to address him in an uncomfortable encounter recorded by the TV cameras. Later, Đilas was part of an official student delegation that Milošević received. As a student leader/activist, in June 1992, Đilas appeared on RTS interview programme Razgovor s povodom thus getting 50 minutes on state television, which he used to further criticize Milošević's policies. All throughout this period Đilas continuously received offers from two largest opposition parties at that time, the Serbian Renewal Movement and the Democratic Party to join their ranks, but he refused.
