New Belgrade

Radev will be welcomed in a ceremony in front of the Palace of Serbia in New Belgrade, and will later have a face-to-face meeting with Vucic.

This will be followed by a meeting of the delegations of the two countries, the Serbian Presidency announced.

A press release added that Radev and Vucic will today also attend the opening of an exhibition entitled "Applied Nostalgia."

Corbett and the three others (N.V, N.P. and N.A) have been charged with suspected illegal production, possession, carrying and distribution of weapons and explosives, spokesperson of the Prosecutor's Office Tatjana Sekulic said in a statement to Tanjug.

Corbett was arrested on January 31 in an apartment in New Belgrade, in possession of a CZ-99 pistol with erased serial number.

Beta agency is citing the city's Beo Info website, to report Vesic as saying that these will not be the size of the new fountain in Slavija Square, but that they will be built in those places in Belgrade that previously had no fountains, and "look neglected."

Vesic also said that a new one will be put up instead, in the same New Belgrade street that is named after Gagarin.

In the meanwhile, the existing monument "lost its head" - i.e., the sculpture representing the head of the famous Russian cosmonaut, the first human to travel to space, was removed from the pedestal.

After the Serbian Progressive Party won the most votes in Belgrade City Assembly elections on March 4, Serbian bookies are suggesting that senior party official Irena Vujovic is the most likely to become mayor of the capital. 

Last weekend's Belgrade elections left 20 of the competitors without seats in the capital's municipal assembly, among them the former ruling Democratic Party and the Serbian Radical Party, demonstrating that there is a crisis within the political opposition, experts told BIRN.

This has been announced with Education Minister Mladen Sarcevic, who explained that the original idea wass to establish the new faculty as a branch of the EFT.

But "the story with the EFT is not over yet," Sarcevic continued - however, if no agreement is reached, "other options are being considered, such as setting up a new faculty."

BELGRADE - Serbian Progressive Party leader and President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic cast his vote in the Belgrade local elections in the municipality of New Belgrade on Sunday morning.

Vucic appeared at polling station No. 27 in the Zepter International building shortly after 9.15 am.

The ruling Serbian Progressive Party won most votes in Sunday's Belgrade City Assembly elections and will most likely continue to run the capital for the next four years, preliminary results show.

Party chief and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said the party's nominee for the post of mayor would be revealed within 15 days.

This is according to the latest poll published by daily Vecernje Novosti.

According to the same poll, of the 24 participants in the election, only three others will cross the five percent threshold.
