In a bold move, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has nominated 62-year-old endocrinologist Djuro Macut as the new prime minister. This surprising pick comes with high expectations as parliament must approve the nomination by April 18.
Macut, a respected professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Belgrade and deputy director of the Clinic for Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases, is celebrated for his expertise and personal integrity. Vucic praised his dedication and competence, highlighting the fresh perspective he can bring to Serbia's top government seat.
The incoming administration is set to focus on raising living standards and driving forward key projects in healthcare, education, science and technology, infrastructure, energy, agriculture, tourism, and environmental protection. A major highlight on the agenda is Expo 2027 in Belgrade, envisioned as a transformative platform for investment and progress 🚀.
Moreover, the new leadership is expected to balance Serbia's European integration with maintaining strong ties to traditional Eastern partners. Facing challenges such as regional political pressures, tariff issues with the United States, and the need to boost both domestic and overseas investment, the government is called upon to act with patience, restraint, and determination.
As Serbia ushers in this fresh chapter following the resignation of former prime minister Milos Vucevic, all eyes are on Djuro Macut to assemble a proactive team ready to push the country forward with innovation and zeal.
