Press: Socialists "collecting bids"

The Socialists are back on all the front pages of Serbia's newspapers after almost eight years, as final election results become clear. ALO—"Sloba smiles from his grave", explores the key role that the Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS), founded by Slobodan Milosevic, seems to have assumed in the Serbian political scene after this election. Press: Socialists "collecting bids" But, according to the tabloid, Serbia's financial market more than just smiles: "Stock market and dinar back from dead". BLIC—"Democrats for government with Socialists", declares the daily on the front page, and explains that although the DS-led coalition won the most votes, it must look for other partners if it means to form the next government. "Dinar recovers, stock market grows", is another optimistic look at the monetary and financial situation in the country. BORBA—"Who will be kingmaker?", where others have no doubt, this newspaper wonders in the main story on the front page, looking at the post-election scramble to form a ruling coalition. "More signatures than votes", explores one phenomenon of the ballot last Sunday, where almost half a dozen tickets that took part managed to submit more signatures supporting their candidacy, than they actually won votes in the elections. VECERNJE NOVOSTI—"Dacic holds key!", the newspaper says of Ivica Dacic, leader of the Socialists. "City, too, uncertain", looks at the results of the Belgrade city assembly vote. GAZETA—This tabloid takes the story about the importance of the SPS a step further: "Dacic premier", and says that the SRS and DSS leaders, Tomislav Nikolic and Vojislav Kostunica, are ready to make this concession in order to secure an SRS-DSS-SPS government, and throw is as many as 40 percent of portfolios as well. GLAS JAVNOSTI—"Dacic with Voja and Toma after all?", the main headline says. Locally, "Tadic leads in most towns". The article examines the municipal vote results. DANAS—"Dacic awaited. Perhaps Ugljanin, too", says this headline, while the article explains that Sulejman Ugljanin, Novi Pazar mayor, and his minority list could also play a role in forging the next cabinet. KURIR—Meanwhile the tabloid has no doubt: "New government", it says on the front page, and explains that this will be a SRS-DSS-SPS cabinet, alleging at the same time that the party leaders have already reached agreement on this. The paper also quotes Radical Aleksandar Vucic who hopes he will head Belgrade for the next four years: "Mayor". POLITIKA—"Collecting bids", the newspaper says as it looks at the SPS role and the start of cabinet talks. "Thousands buried in schools, factories", looks at the tragedy unfolding in China in the wake of the catastrophic earthquake there. PRESS—"Pact", is the headline the tabloid gives to an article about an alleged deal made between Nikolic and Kostunica, who are set to try and form the new government together. But, "Tadic counts on Ivica", says that the Democrats believe they will be the lucky party to woo the Socialists.
