Negotiations Over New Serbian Government Launched

World | January 5, 2004, Monday // 00:00

Negotiations over composing the new Serbian government have started Monday. The winner of last month's parliamentary elections, the Serbian Radical Party, declared its will to hold talks with the Democratic Party only, though the former had earlier declined such proposals. The Radical Party did not exclude the possibility of nominating Democratic Party leader Vojislav Kostunica as the new prime minister, which will be finally decided on Jan 11. The extreme nationalist party allied to indicted war criminal Slobodan Milosevic won Serbia's parliamentary elections but failed to get the majority needed to govern. The parliamentary elections were closely watched as crucial to the stability of the Serb republic and the entire Balkans, still recovering from four wars fomented by Milosevic and his loyalists in the 1990s.
