The deputy leader of Croatia's Independent Democratic Serb Party (SSDS) believes that representatives of Serbs will participate in the new government. “We expect that we will be members of a coalition in the new government regardless of the fact that the winners in the elections have the possibility to form the cabinet on their own. We will discuss everything officially once Croatian President Ivo Josipovic gives mandate to Zoran Milanovic, and that will happen soon,” Milorad Pupovac said. "Serbs likely to join new Croat government" Speaking for the Belgrade daily Vecernje Novosti, Pupovac further stated that he had already conferred with candidate for the future prime minister Zoran Milovanovic on participation of Serbs in the new government, as well as with other members of the Kukuriku Coalition which won the elections on December 4. He added that he expects that Serb representatives will participate in lower levels of the government, adding that it is crucial for the government to offer functional solutions for positions which are important for Serbs. Speaking about the relations between Serbia and Croatia and possibility of withdrawal of the genocide lawsuit which Croatia issued against Serbia, Pupovac said that the resolution of sensitive issues will depend on social and economic situations in both countries. “If the current political circumstances remain unchanged, we can expect the withdrawal of the lawsuit. If social and economic conditions get worse, the lawsuit could be left waiting in the drawer or be resolved by the court, said Pupovac, whose party won three seats in the latest elections.
