Aleksandar Vučić has resigned as Serbia's president following extensive protests over government corruption. His administration faced significant public discontent, particularly after a tragic incident involving the collapse of a railway station roof in 2024, which intensified calls for accountability.

Vučić's resignation triggers presidential elections within three months, with parliamentary elections set for late October. He plans to run as the Progressive Party's candidate for prime minister, indicating his continued influence in Serbian politics despite stepping down from the presidency.

Watch for the upcoming parliamentary elections in late October, where Vučić's Progressive Party will face off against a rising anti-corruption movement and pro-Western opposition. The outcome could reshape Serbia's political landscape and influence its EU aspirations.
