Democrats to elect new party leader Democratic Party (DS) leader Boris Tadic said that the DS was the only political factor capable of transforming the society but that it needed a reform itself, which had to be brave. "If the DS continues to develop discussion within itself and the capability to change, only then will it have the legitimacy to seize power at the next election. If it does not have that strength, it will pay the price, as it is paying now," Tadic stated. He told candidates for party leader Djilas and Kuzmanovic they faced difficult days and were about to assume great responsibility for the future of the party, Serbia and region and for peace and stability.
