Aleksandar Vucic (BETAPHOTO/MILOS MISKOV)
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on March 22 that Kosovo was likely to join the Council of Europe, and that one of Serbia's options was to leave the organization.
“It is extremely unlikely that we will prevent this because they have come to a decision,” Vucic said in an interview with Prva TV. He said that after that one of Serbia's options was to leave the Council of Europe.
In the same interview the president said that he was in favor of giving the opposition “everything that they want regarding voter registers.”
Vucic said that according to the latest polls, “By running independently on the Serbia Must Not Stop ticket, the Serbian Progressive Party would win 55 seats in the Belgrade assembly, without the Socialist Party of Serbia as a partner. “The situation in Belgrade is quite clear, and there is a rather convincing advantage,” Vucic said in a comment on upcoming local polls in the capital.
The president also said that he expected the Progressives to name Serbia’s prime minister-designate in the next seven days, adding that the decision would be “swift” and that they would not wait for the final deadline to create a new cabinet.
