SERBIA: Months of street protests finally forced the president out after corruption allegations broke his grip on power.
Can mass protests still topple leaders in 2025? YES or NO 👇
Aleksandar Vučić resigned after weeks of demonstrations that paralyzed Belgrade and other cities across the country.
Early elections are now likely within months, opening the door for opposition parties that have been sidelined for years.
The question now is whether Serbia pivots toward Brussels or stays in Moscow’s orbit.
◆ Why it matters
Vučić survived years of accusations by controlling state media and splitting the opposition. This time the streets stayed full long enough to crack that model. Whoever wins the snap election will inherit a country caught between the EU and Russia, with neither side willing to let Serbia drift away quietly.
