Ivan Todosijević

Ivan Todosijević (Serbian Cyrillic: Иван Тодосијевић; born 16 July 1973) is a Kosovo Serb politician. He was a minister in the Kosovo government from 2017 to 2019 and a member of the Assembly of Kosovo from 2019 to 2021. He has also been designated by the Serbian government since 2015 as the leader of Zvečan's provisional authority, a position not recognized by the Republic of Kosovo government. Todosijević is a member of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) and Kosovo's Serb List (SL).

In 2019, Todosijević was convicted by a court in Priština of incitement to national, racial, ethnic, or religious intolerance after saying that the identification of Yugoslavia's January 1999 Račak operation as a "massacre" was a fabrication by "Albanian terrorists" used to justify the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. A retrial resulted in the same verdict in October 2022. In July 2023, the Supreme Court of Kosovo overturned the ruling and issued Todosijević a full acquittal.
