Branka Djukic, director of Tanjug news agency, which formally ceased to exist on October 31 after the deadline for its privatization expired, on Friday said the government had promised to save the agency.

Serbia said the sale of 47 state-owned media outlets will be completed by October - although around 30 had not applied for sale after the deadline set by the government to do so had passed.

Shares in those media outlets that have not applied for sale but are not in negative financial state will be divided among the employees.

The Serbian government expressed readiness to shut down state media in case they do not comply with the approaching privatisation deadline.

Serbian Minister of Culture and Information Ivan Tasovac announced on Thursday that state-owned media must submit the necessary documentation for their sale immediately and their privatisation should be completed in four months.
