Vucevic stated that this is good news for Serbia and that Vucic is satisfied with the conversation, adding that Elon Musk was also on the call.

He noted that some media failed to report for half a day that President Vucic was among the first leaders to speak with Trump.

"I would think it's a good sign for Serbia. I would think it's something to be proud of, good news," Vucevic told TV Informer.

He also assessed that Trump was quite well informed about Serbia and that it was not a protocol, but a conversation about what to do next.

"We could also expect a meeting between the two officials at the inauguration. These are big things. You see everyone who is coming to Belgrade, and then you read the headlines in Zagreb, Sarajevo, a part of Podgorica, Pristina and see how it annoys them all. As soon as I see that, I know it's a good thing," said the prime minister.

Vucevic added that whenever the Zagreb press starts reporting the worst it can about what Vucic is doing, it means that Vucic has done something good for Serbia.

"We saw on Croatian TV a call to shoot down the (Serbian) presidential plane with a missile. And they were laughing and 'nicely' concluding that would solve the problem," stressed Vucevic.
