Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić announced that elections will take place either in October or November, though he did not specify the type of elections. This announcement comes amid ongoing demands from students and parts of the opposition for early parliamentary elections.

Vučić made the statement during an interview with three pro-government television channels. He also indicated that he would discuss the election timing and his potential candidacy for prime minister at a rally for the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) scheduled for June 27 in Belgrade. SNS officials have previously expressed their desire for Vučić to lead the party as prime minister.

“

will speak about all of that as well as whether I will be a candidate for prime minister

The president has consistently provided vague answers regarding election dates, often stating they would occur by the end of the year, between September and November, or when the "competent institution (the President of Serbia) decides." He invited citizens to attend the June 27 rally in Belgrade, framing it as an event to hear their opinions and to "fight for another victory" for Serbia, emphasizing it would not be directed against anyone.

will not be directed against anyone but will be organized for our Serbia

Vučić also commented on a student gathering planned for June 28 in Kraljevo, dismissing it as "another senseless" event while acknowledging it as part of democracy. The president's pronouncements on elections and his own political future continue to be a focal point of political discourse in Serbia.
