Elections in Serbia (BETAPHOTO/Dragan Karadarevic)
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Jan. 7 that this year would be difficult in the political sense because of the upcoming elections, and that the early parliamentary elections would be held in October, November or December.
He told Informer TV that the election date would depend on the agreement among the political actors, if, as he stated, they wished to make an agreement. The protesting students have been calling for early parliamentary elections for a while now, while some opposition parties believe that Vucic does not dare schedule them for fear of losing power. The protesting students and the opposition have demonstrated negative reactions to the Serbian president’s earlier calls for talks on various subjects.
Vucic reiterated that this year would be the most successful in the economic sense. He added that it was important for the people in Serbia that peace and stability be preserved.
