Daniel Serwer of the U.S. Institute of Peace says it is unclear how Boris Tadic and his coalition will form a pro-European government. Serwer told Voice of America that one possibility is that the nationalist parties will form a government, "going against the will of the voters". U.S. analyst: Pro-Euro forces face difficult task He added that the elections in Serbia showed "a clear European orientation in favor f the Democratic Party and its allies, and a clear failure of the Serb Radical Party (SRS)". However, there is still no obvious majority, he added, and it remains uncertain who or well will form a coalition and new government. “Weeks and months" could pass before it becomes apparent whether Tadic will be able to put together a government, Serwer said. “It is a big task, and the election results show that it will not be easy despite the fact that the voters clearly showed their pro-European orientation,” the U.S. expert continued. If Tadic is unable to form a government, "the nationalists and parties with lesser degree of European orientation will be able to do so", Serwer said. “If the nationalists form the government, Serbia will turn towards the East, not in the direction which the voters determined, but in the parliamentary system it is possible to form a government which goes against the wishes of the voters,” he added. Serwer concluded that it is also possible that Tadic could form a cabinet with prime minister Vojislav Kostunica’s party, the DSS, but said that "this would be a poor solution, because that government has shown itself to be ineffective.”
