He received international attention during the 1996–1997 protests in Serbia after he was arrested for carrying a puppet of Slobodan Milošević dressed in prison garb; subsequent reports that he was beaten by state authorities were covered in major newspapers worldwide. Bulatović later became an elected official in his home community of Šid and led the party, "Green Ecological Party – The Greens" (Zelena ekološka partija – Zeleni, ZEP–Zeleni). He was a vice-president of the Party of Freedom and Justice (Stranka slobode i pravde, SSP) until his departure from the party in December 2022.[1]
Despite initially being a critic of Aleksandar Vučić and the Serbian Progressive Party, his attitude changed after he departed SSP.[2][3] He firstly joined their parliamentary group and later contested the 2023 parliamentary election on their electoral list. He was re-elected to the National Assembly in that election.
