The SPS presidency today decided to withdraw from a previously signed local power-sharing arrangement in Belgrade. In late May, the Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) reached an agreement with the Radicals (SRS) and the Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS)-New Serbia (NS) coalition to form the local authorities in the Serbian capital. Socialists scrap Belgrade deal with SRS, DSS Today, in a session in Belgrade, the party presidency decided to back out of the deal in order "not to jeopardize the country's government". However, the Socialists find forming a city assembly majority with the Liberal-Democrats (LDP) "unacceptable", and will take part in tomorrow's first assembly session only for the verification of the mandates. "We will see in the coming days in any agreement on forming the Belgrade authorities is possible," SPS leader Ivica Dacic told reporters. "The most likely outcome of all this could be new elections in Belgrade," he added. Earlier on Sunday Dacic confirmed that the issues of forming the local government in Belgrade and provincial authorities in Vojvodina would be on the presidency's agenda. He told reporters that other coalitions his party could forge on the local level throughout Serbia will also be considered, aloong with the extraordinary parliament session called for next week. Additionally, the party's upcoming anniversary was on the agenda as top SPS officials met today. The party, established and led until his death by Slobodan Milosevic, in late May signed the Belgrade deal with the SRS and the DSS-NS. But the Socialists in the meantime joined the Democrats (DS) and their five-party pre-election coalition in the new Serbian government, and found themselves under pressure to replicate the same political arrangement in the capital.
