Serbia ends campaign before Sunday's snap parliamentary election
Campaigning closed in Serbia ahead of Sunday's snap parliamentary election, with thousands of students arriving in Belgrade for a final rally. A student protest movement built over two years of demonstrations is challenging President Aleksandar Vučić's 12 years in power.
Why it matters
The vote could change the government of an EU candidate country with close ties to Russia and China.
Background
Mass student-led protests began after the deadly collapse of a railway station canopy in Novi Sad in November 2024. Vučić's Serbian Progressive Party has led the country since 2012.
