Serbia Parliament to convene on November 17 following election results
Ana Brnabic, the outgoing parliament speaker, has scheduled the inaugural session of Serbia's new Parliament for November 17. This follows the official declaration of results from the October 25 elections by the state electoral commission.
The Students' List, a movement that rose to prominence following two years of street protests, secured 140 seats in the 250-member assembly. The Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) won 103 seats. The remaining seven seats are held by representatives of ethnic minority parties, including the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians and the Albanian Coalition.
Following the confirmation of mandates, the Parliament will elect a new speaker and other governing bodies. A new government must be formed within 90 days of the Parliament's constitution. Additionally, Serbia is required to hold an early presidential election by the end of the year, following the resignation of Aleksandar Vucic on September 27.
