Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić said this evening in Belgrade that he and former Montenegrin President Milo Đukanović have "almost everything different in their programs, plans and ideas", but that they have "one common obsession - Serbia".

"Both of us are obsessed with Serbia, he hates it, I love it, and I have no problem with that. I will continue to love my country, he can continue to hate it. At the same time, I will respect Montenegro and its people, what no matter what he sings, no matter how much he hates Serbia, it will move forward," said Vučić.

That's how he commented on the footage of Djukanovic's celebration of the victory of his Democratic Party of Socialists in the local elections in Podgorica on Sunday with the lines "No one can do anything to us, we are stronger than Serbia, they can only hate us...".

Asked about the statement of the former Minister for Kosovo, Goran Bogdanović, that the Serbs in Kosovo understood that he had deceived them, Vučić said that he fought in impossible conditions and managed to get 28 countries around the world to withdraw the recognition of Kosovo.

"Ah, Bogdanović, (Dragan) Đilas, (Zdravko) Ponoš, (Boris) Tadić and the others burdened us with the independence of Kosovo and 90 countries that recognized independence - so much for the effect... Bogdanović and all of them together on one list and I to the second, so let's see who gets how many votes from the Serbian people in Kosovo," Vučić told reporters at the ceremony on the occasion of the completion of work on the "The St. Regis Belgrade" hotel in the "Beograd na vodi" neighborhood.

Speaking about the announced session of the Serbian Parliament on lithium, Vučić told the opposition to decide whether they want him to come to that session or not.

"They are afraid of one man, they are afraid of the words and brains of one man, they would give anything to be able to defeat and overthrow that man, and what bothers them is that that one man is not afraid of all of them together," he said.
