Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić has signaled that elections could be held after the summer, a move that comes as the country's parliament continues its work on other matters. Vučić also launched a website, "Ko si ti, bre?" (Who are you, damn it?), intended for reporting what he described as corrupt officials.

Meanwhile, the Serbian Parliament has been busy hosting delegations and organizing conferences. However, it has yet to schedule a debate on the opposition's request for a no-confidence vote against the government. The government's strategy for the upcoming period was a topic of discussion for Tanasije Marinković, a law professor.

In a week marked by European diplomatic engagement in the Balkans, President Vučić decided to attend the EU Summit in Tivat after an initial hesitation, following a conversation with Ursula von der Leyen. Concurrently, the European Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee is set to discuss Tonino Picula's report on Serbia. Adding to the diplomatic activity, the White House announced its nominees for ambassadors to Serbia, Bosnia, and Montenegro.
