Dacic: We remain loyal to the policy we're pursuing with SNS
The leader of the Socialists (SPS) also commented on the election slogan
"The election campaign, in which the entire leadership of SPS talks to citizens throughout Serbia every day, showed that we have support for what we are doing, that citizens are satisfied because unemployment has been reduced, infrastructure has been improved and other things important for them. That is what matters to us, and all the stories about SPS not being trusted and pursuing different policies prove to be nonsense each time," stressed the president of the Socialist Party of Serbia Ivica Dacic and added that the goal of SPS has not changed, it is cooperation with President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic and SNS (Serbian Progressive Party) and the continuation of the policy that leads to victory of Serbia.
Dacic said that he is loyal to the policy that he jointly conducts with President Vucic, and that this will remain so after the elections as well.
Speaking about the party's election slogan, he recalled that SPS gave its electoral list the same name in the previous, last year's elections - "Ivica Dacic - Prime Minister of Serbia" - which is a message to the people that there are no hidden policies.
"In Europe, the largest parties traditionally go to elections with the name of the future prime minister, and that is democratic and fair. And ask those from the opposition, who call themselves the 'pro-European' coalition, why their lists are headed by people from the second and third tier. Why don't they look up to Europe in this? Why is their first tier hiding behind someone else, why their slogans aren't, 'Djilas - Prime Minister' or 'Bosko Obradovic - Prime Minister' So, if the will of the people is such, I will be prime minister, and until then it's important that they know where they stand with me and with my party, we say things openly," Dacic told the daily Alo.
Dacic added that the most important facts are the good things that have been done in Serbia and Belgrade, especially those projects that have been on pause for 40-50 years, such as Prokop (new main train station) and the (Belgrade) bypass.
"We still have a lot of work to do, we won the right to organize EXPO 2027, and it will be a huge stepping stone for the development of Belgrade. So I am sure that Belgraders see this great progress and will decide to continue on this path, with those who have shown that they know how to run a large European metropolis.
If we win the elections, and I am convinced of the victory of the SNS and the SPS, in five years Serbia will still be a stable country, even more developed and richer. I have no doubt about that. Our policy and our coalition certainly lead to that," said Dacic and added that this is the only guarantee of Serbia's stability and constant development.
The president of the SPS reiterated that the continuation of the policy advocated by the coalition guarantees that Serbia will preserve Kosovo and Metohija, the Serb people in the province and that we will never recognize Kosovo.
