Serbia's Vucic nominates ally Vucevic as prime minister designate

 

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic on Saturday nominated his close ally Milos Vucevic to be prime minister and to lead a new government through a time of war in Europe and tensions with Kosovo, Paralel.Az reports citing Reuters.

The nomination comes more than three months after their party, the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), won the most votes in a national election on Dec. 17. Vucevic took over leadership of the party after Vucic stepped down last year.

"I propose to parliament Milos Vucevic as candidate for prime minister of Serbia," Vucic wrote on Instagram.

A lawyer by profession, Vucevic was deputy prime minister and defence minister in the government of his predecessor Ana Brnabic.
