Vucic to return to presidential duties on May 7, to make public address

BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic will return to his official duties on May 7, sources at the Presidency of Serbia confirmed to Tanjug on Monday.

Vucic will hold meetings with the Russian and the UK ambassadors to Belgrade on Wednesday morning and is also due to make a public address in the evening, the sources said.

Vucic was forced to cut short a visit to the US and return to Serbia after suddenly falling sick on Friday afternoon.

Upon returning to Belgrade, Vucic was admitted to the Military Medical Academy and his doctor Dragan Dincic said his condition was stable and satisfactory but that he had blood pressure problems.

Dincic said Vucic had experienced health issues caused by high blood pressure on three occasions in the past ten years but that the most recent ones had been the most difficult of all.
