Student-backed list wins majority

Last Sunday, the student-backed political list secured 53% of the votes in Serbia's early parliamentary elections, ending fourteen years of dominance by the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) led by Aleksandar Vučić.

SNS moves to opposition

The SNS, which received 39% of the votes, now finds itself in opposition after losing its long-held majority. The student-backed list gained 141 of the 250 parliamentary seats, while the SNS fell short of a majority.

Opposition leader fails to enter Parliament

Ivica Dačić, the leader of the opposition, did not meet the 3% electoral threshold required to enter Parliament, effectively removing him from the National Assembly and leaving a power vacuum in the opposition.

Analysts remain cautious about economic outlook

Financial analysts have expressed a cautiously optimistic view regarding Serbia's investment prospects in the medium term, though they remain wary of the uncertainties surrounding the new government's policies.

Uncertainty about economic and foreign policy direction

The new majority has yet to clarify the composition of its economic cabinet or name a future minister of finance. Additionally, the future direction of Serbia's foreign policy, which had been a key strength of the previous government, remains unclear.
