Vucic: Government to be formed before August, I don't agree with holding elections again

He pointed out that the SNS will secure the majority and that there is no possibility of this not happening

The election process in Serbia will be completed by April 25, that is, the final election results should be announced by then, followed by a month to constitute the parliament, then a month for the president to appoint a prime minister-designate and another 60 days to elect a government, and President Aleksandar Vucic says that the government "will come sooner than that".

Asked whether that means that Serbia will get a government before the summer, Vucic told RTS that it will certainly not happen in August.

"It's important for the country. There is great interest in my party in holding to parliamentary elections by the end of the year, possibly together with the city elections... I do not agree with that," said Vucic.

He said that he does not agree with that proposal, which he will discuss with people from his party, because the state must be above party interests.

"Imagine saying that we are going to parliamentary elections, and then three months of campaigning, then three or four to get a new government... Not to have a government for 10 months in the most difficult conditions and do nothing," said Vucic.

He pointed out that the SNS will secure the majority and that there is no possibility of this not happening.

"Us alone and Hungarians and minority parties, and there will be many who would like to join without the big parties," said Vucic, and when asked if he was absolutely sure that the government would be formed in that way, he said that it depended on the decision of the SNS with whom they wanted to form a government.
