BELGRADE, Sept 15 (Hina) - Yugoslav President Vojislav Kostunica criticised the Serbian government and the way it was carrying out the social reform on Saturday, saying its actions reflected "the party state." The Serbian Prime
Minister, Zoran Djindjic, answered by praising the achievements of his government, and denying there was need for an early election, because it would "stop the economic change dynamics." If the Serbian government continues in the same path, he said, the country will become a candidate for joining the European Union by the year 2004, leaving a lot to be done by 2010, when it should become a full EU member. Kostunica and Djindjic presented their opposing views on social reform in Yugoslavia and Serbia at a conference on reform strategy in Belgrade, organised by the Centre for liberal-democratic studies.(hina) js
