Seat of President of Serbia in Andricev Venac Street to be turned into museum?

Prime Minister and future President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic stated on Saturday, April 8, that he wants the building housing the seat of the President of Serbia in the Andricev Venac Street to be turned into a museum, which would, among other things, enhance the tourist offer of Belgrade.

Vucic said that he expected that it was possible for the presidential offices to be moved to the palace of Serbia or elsewhere, seeing how, as he added, he needs less working space than his predecessors.

– I hope that this can be done, as I'd want to building to be turned into a museum. It has a great location and would enhance the tourist offer. I believe that many would like to see where Milosevic and Tadic were and to get to know the history of the building – the prime minister said and added that he was considering setting up an exhibit from one of the biggest museums in the world, St. Petersburg's Hermitage, at the New Palace.

Vucic added that moving out was an idea that he was seriously considering, but that competent departments needed to organize the process.
