Peskov: Russia will continue contacts with the leadership of Serbia after the resignation of Vucic

Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that the Kremlin is confident in continuing contacts with the political leadership of Serbia after the resignation of the country’s leader Alexander Vucic. According to him, the relations of countries are built not only on individual personalities.

Of course, relations between Russia and Serbia are much higher than relations with individuals. Therefore, we are convinced that our relations will receive a very constructive further development in all possible areas, Peskov told reporters.

The presidential term of Alexander Vucic was to expire in the spring of 2027. In early September, Mr Vucic dissolved parliament for early elections. On September 27, he announced his resignation as president of Serbia. He now plans to run for prime minister from the ruling Serbian Progressive Party.
