Vucic Promises 69 Health Facilities and Water Program

Aleksandar Vucic, the leader of the Aleksandar Vucic - United Serbia list, posted a video on his Instagram account avucic on Thursday, October 8, 2026, listing three tasks he would carry out if voters give him their trust in the coming elections. The most concrete figures come with the second and third tasks: over 1.3 billion euros for health facilities and an eight-year water supply program.

In the post’s caption Vucic wrote: “The most important tasks I will carry out, if I get your trust:”, and then listed three points:

• care for people and daily conversation with the public,
• investing enormous sums to fix problems in health infrastructure,
• a responsible, long-term solution to water supply problems across the whole territory of the Republic.

The caption has no figures. The numbers are heard in the video itself.

What did Vucic say about talking to citizens?

The first task is not tied to any project. “Complete dedication to people, care for you, dear people, and conversation on a daily basis,” Vucic said in the video. He added that this would not be his obligation alone: “We want to hear all your problems, to solve them, and every minister and every municipal president will have to do this.” He put the message on accountability bluntly: “If they want to do well, fine, if they don’t, they won’t be in that position.”

Health care: 69 facilities in 60 municipalities and cities

The second task is health infrastructure. Vucic introduced it with the line: “What is of decisive importance to me is care for children and for our elderly.” By that he meant new health centers, new hospitals, maternity wards and clinical-hospital centers, and on money and deadline he said this:

And that is why we will invest over a billion and three hundred million euros in just two, two and a half years so that we can finish all 69 basic, essential, fundamentally important health facilities on the territory of 60 municipalities and cities across Serbia, and thereby completely change the picture of our health care.

The deadline he gave is two to two and a half years, and the scope is 60 municipalities and cities. Which facilities these are, and in which municipalities, was not listed in the video.

How long will the water program take and what will it cost?

The third task is water supply, and the timeline is much longer than for health care. Vucic described the problem this way:

Across all of our Serbia, in the north of Serbia and in the south, in its central part, everywhere we have problems with water supply. From asbestos pipes to there not being enough water. That takes an enormous amount of money. Billions, I would say more than 10 billion. We are making a big program and trying to solve all these problems in the next eight years.

Vucic gave the estimate of more than 10 billion without naming a currency. By his account the program would run for eight years, far longer than the two to two and a half years he set for the health facilities.

Promises for the whole country, not one city

We previously reported that Vucic promised a highway to Timisoara and a bridge in Pancevo. This time the promises are not tied to one city: the health package covers 60 municipalities and cities, and the water program covers the entire territory of Serbia.

Vucic closed the video with the words: “These are important things and for them I expect and ask for your support. Thank you very much.”
