Nikolic won't back Jeremic because ex-FM "derided him"

The magazine said that the president had intended to support Jeremic as a candidate for the top UN job, "and held several meeting with him." However, Nikolic's adviser Stanislava Pak is quoted as saying, "in the end he had to give up (on backing Jeremic)."

Ahead of the UNESCO vote, Jeremic said that "everything was known in advance - and the current authorities in Belgrade are preparing the ground for glorifying their victory, or if they lose, to say things happened under abnormal circumstances."

The magazine further writes that Nikolic "claims his lack of support has nothing to do with opinion polls that show Jeremic has good results."

The opinion poll referred to in the article was reportedly commissioned to gauge Jeremic's chances in a future presidential election.
