First Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic has held talks with two prominent UK politicians and experts, Stephen Byers and Peter Lilley. The talks were held with the UK experts about the possibility of their becoming Vucic’s advisers on the economy, the Danas newspaper writes on Friday. Danas: Blair's Minister to Be Vucic's Adviser? Quoting a "well-informed sources in London," the paper says that a final agreement has not been reached yet and that consultations will probably continue. Byers and Lilley are prominent members of different parties -- the former belongs to the Labor Party and was a member of the cabinet of Tony Blair, while the latter is a conservative and held offices in the governments of Margaret Thatcher and John Major; at present, he is a member of the British Parliament. Danas's sources in London, close to the Foreign Office, say that one of the reasons for Vucic's interest in potential collaborators from that country is that outgoing UK ambassador in Belgrade Michael Kirby will be taking over as head of the EU Delegation to Serbia in September and that a strong "British connection" could very well be useful to the Serbian government. For the past few weeks, Vucic has been holding intensive talks with financial and economics experts from several European countries in an effort to induce them to take offices in Serbia's reshuffled government. It is not yet clear whether foreigners in a reshuffled government would only hold advisory positions or would serve in the capacity of ministers, Danas writes. /Tanjug, file/ VIP
