"I believe that we will know by Djurdjevdan or a few dasy after exactly when the elections will be held," Vucic said, answering questions from journalists as he was attending the opening of a new bridge over the Tamis River near Tomasevac.

His message for the opposition is they will have a chance to win.

"After all, they now ride a big wave from Hungary, they are a little quiet about Bulgaria and Slovenia, but well, that's the way it goes. They have a big wave and a huge opportunity. Everything is going their way. Maybe the people want them, if the people want them, we'll congratulate them, but then get ready, people, there won't be any new railways, they'll just have to shut them down, like they did before, there won't be any new roads, like there weren't any before, and there's no great philosophy to it. But let's wait, we'll fight," said Vucic.
