BUDAPEST, May 12, 2008 (Xinhua via COMTEX News Network) -- Hungarian
Foreign Minister Kinga Goncz on Monday said the initial official results
of the Serbian parliamentary elections demonstrated the commitment of a
majority of voters to European values, Hungarian News Agency MTI reported.
Goncz voiced the hope that Hungary's southern neighbor would have a
stable and democratic government. She said the high turnout shows that
voters saw a pressing need to express their opinion about Serbia's future.
She pointed that the composition of Serbia's next government would depend
on the final result of the elections and the outcome of coalition talks.
Goncz welcomed that the ethnic Hungarian parties of Vojvodina, Serbia's
northernmost province, demonstrated unity during the elections and supported
Serbia's quest to get closer to mainstream Europe.
The first results indicated that President Boris Tadic's pro-EU Democratic
Party and its smaller allies beat their nationalist and radical rivals.
