Conversation with the President of the European People's Party
President of the Republic of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić talked earlier today via video conference with the President of the European People's Party Donald Tusk. The President expressed confidence that the key priority of the future Government of the Republic of Serbia will be a credible, responsible and even stronger continuation of the European path. Therefore, President Vučić said that he appreciated the support that the President of ENP Tusk provides to Serbia on that path.
President Vučić briefed Tusk about the situation in the country caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. "We have advanced laboratories for testing and accurate determination of the virus presence. We tested a large number of people, much more than some countries in the region. We wanted to save lives. Now our borders are open. The state managed to provide economic support to small and medium-sized enterprises and citizens after the pandemic. Serbia has a very good fiscal system and can withstand it. Both I and the citizens of Serbia are satisfied with the economic situation in the country," President Vučić emphasised.
President of the European People's Party Donald Tusk, said that the pandemic caused a comprehensive crisis in the world, both economic and political. "I am rather satisfied that the citizens in some countries behaved responsibly. You can be proud that Serbia has successfully overcome this crisis. The most important thing is that the citizens are satisfied with the economic situation," Tusk pointed out.
President Vučić informed the President of the EPP Tusk about the electoral conditions and political candidates for the upcoming elections. Tusk wished President Vučić good luck in the forthcoming elections.
