Political career
Krstić was appointed as the Minister of Finance in the Government of Serbia on 26 August 2013, on the proposal of ruling Serbian Progressive Party.[2] On 12 July 2014, he resigned from the position due to disagreements with Prime Minister of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić over the level of public sector salaries and pension reduction.[3] During his tenure, he pushed for economic reforms, huge salaries and pension reduction, electricity price increase and other taxes for citizens.[3]
