Serbia will hold snap parliamentary elections on October 18 or 25, President Aleksandar Vucic said on Thursday, more than a month after he pledged at his party rally to schedule them.
“The parliamentary elections will be held on October 18 or 25. The exact date will be known in the coming days,” Vucic said in a live TV broadcast.
The parliamentary elections in Serbia were originally set for December 2027.
“On one list there will be the (ruling) Serbian Progressive Party with its list, on the other all other political options,” he said.
On June 27, Vucic, a populist, said he would resign within weeks and the country would hold early parliamentary and presidential elections, following 18 months of anti-government protests. This is the first time he gave possible dates for the vote.
