Serbian President Vucic Resigns, Paving Way for Early Elections

AD28 September · 01:4510 min ago

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced his resignation on Sunday in response to months of protests demanding accountability for the Novi Sad station collapse and an end to corruption. He dissolved parliament by decree, scheduling early elections for October 25, while remaining active as the leading candidate for his Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) to become prime minister. Parliamentary Speaker Ana Brnabic will serve as acting president for up to three months. The student-led movement aims to oust Vucic’s government after 14 years in power, citing widespread allegations of corruption and democratic backsliding.
