Opposition Serb Progressives (SNS) deputy leader Aleksandar Vucic said that a coalition with the ruling Democrats (DS) is "impossible under normal conditions". He told Belgrade weekly NIN that this kind of coalition would be possible only if “some kind of Armageddon occurred”. SNS rule out coalition with Democrats Vucic claims that the DS plans to hold elections in April of next year, that the country will see EU visa liberalization in January and “they expect that some money will arrive to Serbia from the European Union by then”. “The DS will schedule an assembly meeting for its party in February, it expects to has some kind of way out of the most difficult part of the economic crisis by then and then, they would go to elections. But I don’t know if they will be able to last that long,” Vucic said. Speaking of the possible election system and asked about an eventual partition of Serbia into regions, Vucic said that big changes will not be made "that easy". There will be a variation of a combined system, he said of the elections, "a proportional system, but where based on one list, citizens will be able to choose specific MPs". The SNS official also said that this election system would be similar to the one in Bosnia-Herzegovina, but that "it is a very difficult system" and it remains questionable whether it will be chosen. Vucic said that he believes the planned regionalization of the country would come to nothing, adding that "it is not such a bad idea if it were feasible", but that it would mean that “Vojvodina would be divided into two or three regions, which they will not allow”. The SNS deputy leader claims that the idea does not have real support, and described it as a "media manipulation, not a sincere desire for decentralization”.
