“Any party which shares the principles advocated by our party is a potential coalition partner, and the platform of (SNS leader) Tomislav Nikolić's party is close to PUPS,” he told Tanjug.
"We would have no problem talking about it. But it is still early," he stressed, adding that talks with all potential partners would start closer to the election.
Čolaković explained that priority would be given to talks inside the coalition made up of the Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS), PUPS and United Serbia (JS) which he believed would start soon.
"The party needs to assess how much support it enjoys among the 1.6 million pensioners, and whether its work has helped to improve their lives. If the party assesses it can cross the threshold, it would be best for it to appear independently," the PUPS official stressed.
Seems like pensioners had it enough of unreal promises and disappointments that DS and SPS gave them in the past period. PUPS needs a partner who will respect pensioners and their needs, not just feed them with crumbs and give their pension raise of 1-2% every 6 months! I truly believe that they can find a honest partner in SNS.

I think it's better with them to be with SNS than with the quazi-socialists. In fact, if they leave their current pups-sps-js coalition, then it's a really big question of how the quazi-socialists will make it into the next parliament.
