Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said in an address before a themed government session on Jan. 25 that the summit in Davos showed that the world was moving toward further fragmentation and that Serbia needed to renew efforts toward maintaining its priority, which was preserving peace and stability in the country.
"The world is moving toward further fragmentation, differentiation, conflict. The division is no longer the West and the rest of the world, there is now significant fragmentation within the West, and that is a permanent process, as Ursula von der Leyen said. It won't stop," Vucic said, adding that the world would not be more peaceful in 2026, but face more problems.
"The engagement of all state bodies on what we have identified as the main priority -- preserving peace and stability in the country -- is of enormous importance. This means full engagement by all segments of the state -- the government, president of the republic, all other international contacts to preserve the position of the Republic of Serbia, so we can guarantee safety, peace and security," he said.
He told Serbian Prime Minister Djuro Macut to make sure that the ministers in the cabinet were working in such hard times. Further discussing the gathering at the World Economic Forum in Davos, he said that he had never seen such a poor atmosphere in a place where the entire world was assembling, including representatives of the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, international organizations and the most powerful tech companies in the world.
