Tomislav Nikolic has criticized the DS and Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) for “jeopardizing state interests.” The Serb Radical Party (SRS) deputy leader told a press conference that one example of this was the postponement of construction of the Horgos-Pozega highway and the Russian energy deal. Nikolic: DS, DSS jeopardizing state interests He called these jobs “vital investments without which Serbia cannot go further.” Nikolic wondered how the technical government had the capacity to postpone the start of highway construction, but did not have the capacity to ratify the energy agreement. He said that claims that the EU had not recognized Kosovo’s unilaterally declared independence were untrue. “On behalf of who then did [EU High Representative] Javier Solana go to Pristina, when Spain hasn’t recognized Kosovo independence?” asked Nikolic. The SRS deputy leader also predicted that the EU would support the Democratic Party (DS) and, to an extent, the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) in the upcoming campaign, though he added that Serbian citizens could only expect tangible help if the country renounced its sovereignty in Kosovo. He condemned the dispute between President Boris Tadic (DS) and daily Politika over the publication of a story on the alleged estate of the late Belgrade Mayor Nenad Bogdanovic, saying that if the president triumphed again at the elections, he would “start arresting journalists.” Nikolic said that the SRS’s election campaign would be modest and would focus on outdoor rallies. The SRS will launch its campaign in Gracanica on Saturday, before moving on to Subotica the next day. Tomislav Nikolic (FoNet, archive)
