Boris Tadic's Victory is Not so Decisive
Mark Mardell, BBC News | May 13, 2008
The recent victory in Serbian parliamentary elections by President Boris Tadic's pro-EU alliance was not as decisive as he would like to have the world believe. ++ In order to form a government he is likely to have to form a coalition with the eurosceptic Socialists, formerly the party of Slobodan Milosevic. ++ This would not only give him less space to maneuver with regard to EU accession and Kosovo, but also strengthen the Socialists by allowing them to create a new profile and "remove the tarnish of the past."
