And the Real Winner is . . . Koštunica, Again!
SWP Comment 2008/C 10, 15.04.2008, 5 Seiten ForschungsgebieteSerbia's new prime minister could be again the old one: Vojislav Koštunica. A week ahead of the early parliamentary election on May 11, pollsters predict that none of the two big political blocs in Serbia will emerge from the elections strong enough to form a government single-handedly. The post-election negotiation about a new government could turn out to be long-lasting, chaotic and inconclusive. Koštunica will again occupy a decisive position, although he can garner only a fraction of the votes of each of the two big blocs. A new ruling coalition will most probably have to include his party in order to achieve the necessary parliamentary majority. Moreover, he could again demand for himself the position of the prime minister.
