The government will be officially unveiled at Tuesday's parliament session, Vucic told a press conference in the parliament building after handing a proposed composition of the new government to Parliament Speaker Maja Gojkovic.

The plan is primarily aimed at creating conditions for better living standards and better life for the Serbian citizens in the period to come, Vucic said.

"It is not a self-fulfilling plan and there must be a very committed group of people behind it who are wholeheartedly for it and want the Serbian citizens to live better," Vucic said, adding that the list of ministers reflected the decisions of political parties.

He said he did not know the exact number of new names, but that there were six or seven of them, including people who were not affiliated with any political parties but known as professionals in their respective fields.

"This is going to be a government of success, experience and freshness," Vucic said.
