Serbia's President Vucic Resigns to Run for Prime Minister

Serbia's longtime president, Aleksandar Vucic, announced his resignation in late September 2026. He said he wants to run for prime minister in early parliamentary elections scheduled for October.

In an interview with CNN, Vucic said he wants a fair political race and that the Serbian people feel treated unjustly by the international community. The resignation means Serbia will hold snap elections.
