Ponos: Vucic building unity based on fear

“The outgoing president is trying to portray himself as the father of the nation and build unity on fear of war … abusing events in Ukraine,” Ponos told the KTV station in the northern city of Zrenjanin.

“If the electorate ignores these elections and these authorities remain in power for another five years, what happens to Ukraine will be completely irrelevant because we will get a destroyed Serbia as the biggest problem. We need a state administration, a job done by a group of delegated people as a joint activity. The corruption we have today was created by these authorities,” he said.

He said he prefers giving local investors preference over foreign investors who are being given subsidies and added that he does not want to see public money spent on meaningless projects such as monuments, cable cars and a national stadium.
