Elections, either regular or extraordinary would most certainly take place in Serbia, prior to the final resolution of the Kosovo issue, Belgrade-based daily Danas reports.

Bojan Klacar, researcher at the Center for Free Elections and Democracy (CeSID) made these remarks to Danas, responding to a question if more frequent appearances of the Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) members on the most viewed television stations, in addition to their presence in these media, could indicate holding of extraordinary elections.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he respects the Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC) and its representatives very much, BETA news agency reported.

He added he won’t be saying bad things about representatives of the SOC, who, as he said, “throw stones at him on a daily basis.”

“I have full trust in the Patriarch Irinej. I belong to the Serbian Orthodox Church and if you expect me to say something bad about it, I won’t do that, not even about those who are throwing stones at me on a daily basis. I do not want to enter that,” Vucic said to the journalists in Belgrade.
