The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, announced that he will run for the position of prime minister in the early legislative elections scheduled for October. Vucic, described in the article as nationalist and populist, will present his candidacy as leader of the government after having presented his resignation.
Vucic's decision comes following protests against his governance, which reportedly led to his resignation from the position of prime minister. The protests were reportedly motivated by issues related to the way he governed the country.
With this change, Vucic thus moves from president to candidate for prime minister, in a move aimed at maintaining control of the executive power in Serbia through the early elections in October.
