BELGRADE -- Aleksandar Vui said after meeting with Ivica Dai that he "does not want a partisan government," but "wants to unite Serbia and enter difficult reforms."

"We do not want to form a partisan government, our goal is to unite Serbia and go into difficult reforms, and to make Serbia the leader in the region," said the president of the SNS party and the country's future prime minister.

Dai, Serbia's outgoing prime minister and leader of the Socialists (SPS) arrived at the SNS headquarters on Tuesday for talks about a new government, which he said focused mostly on the economy. Ministerial positions have not been discussed, he said.

"We are ready to take on our part of the job - that Serbia does not miss an opportunity, but to step on in a bigger stride," Dai was quoted as saying. He then added that "not a single mistake was made during the current cooperation in the government when it comes to the road along which the country is headed," but that now there was an opportunity to "go into the economy."

Pointing out that the SPS-PUPS-JS coalition "positively assessed" its cooperation so far with Vui and the SNS, Dai stated that his cabinet's results were "good" - and would be "evaluated as significant also in the decades to come."

"Serbia has changed its image and today the worst talk about Serbia is taking place precisely in Serbia. Now it's time for Serbia to end the tradition of missed opportunities," the outgoing prime minister was quoted as saying, and adding: "We reiterate our desire and express our political will that Serbia does not miss the opportunity and that it develops."

The purpose of today's meeting, said Dai, was for Vui to propose a plan, while it did not concern "past times, but the future."

Speaking after the meeting, Vui also said that it was for the most part dedicated to the economy. He reiterated that "there would be no increase in the public debt," but said that Serbia would "get significant and major infrastructure projects, and that in ten or so days concession contracts will be signed for big jobs in that area."

Dai was accompanied by deputy leader of the Party of United Pensioners of Serbia (PUPS), Milan Krkobabi, President of United Serbia (JS) Dragan Markovi Palma, and SPS officials arko Obradovi and Dijana Vukomanovi.
