Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced on Jan. 26 that one of Washington’s formal conditions for opening a strategic dialogue between the U.S. and Serbia is related to energy and fuel, while the other is political.
Speaking for Blic TV, Vucic said that the Jan. 25 cabinet sitting he attended did not involve a discussion of this topic, but that the matter will be addressed in the next few days, “as soon as everything is prepared.”
“One condition is clearly tied to the energy sector, while the other is more political in nature,” Vucic said of Washington’s demands.
Mid-last year, Vucic claimed that a strategic dialogue with the U.S. was imminent.
Asked when the Serbian public can expect parliamentary elections, Vucic stated that the most realistic timeframe is between October and December of this year, which would be ahead of schedule. He also said it is possible he might resign and call a presidential vote along with snap parliamentary elections.
