TIRANA – Elections will take place in Serbia once the country overcomes the coronavirus epidemic, President Aleksandar Vucic said on Saturday as quoted by Beta news agency.
He said he would discuss the topic of elections with all those who had earlier said they would not take part in the run, adding that he has nothing to object if there is someone else not willing to run in the elections.
“It is completely possible that some wish to use the dissatisfaction of people who are forced to stay at their homes, to be more disciplined, in order to get incomparably stronger support than they used to have,” said Vucic, commenting on media reports about the possible participation of the Alliance for Serbia in the elections.
Speaking about economic indicators, Vucic said Serbia would be either first or the second in Europe in terms of the growth rate.
“They are already decreasing salaries for public officials and public sector in the region, and we are not thinking about that at this moment,” said Vucic, adding that Serbia has significant reserves in money and gold stored at the National Bank./argumentum.al
