Serbia protests, aid, elections and pension reforms

Entities: Aleksandar Vučić · Serbia · Student protest movement · Jelena Žarić Kovačević · Republic of Serbia

Overview

The student‑led protests that began after the July 2026 Novi Sad shelter collapse continue to pressure the government for transparent courts, free media and credible elections. President Aleksandar Vučić has said he will resign the presidency to run for prime minister on the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) list, and the early parliamentary election is expected in October or November 2026, followed by a presidential vote in late December 2026 or early February 2027.

An extraordinary parliamentary session was called for 27 July 2026 to vote on a no‑confidence motion against Prime Minister Đuro Macut’s cabinet. The motion, first submitted by 62 opposition deputies on 13 February 2026 over alleged corruption in the General Staff property case and misconduct by the Culture Minister, finally reached quorum after 109 MPs from the “Aleksandar Vučić – Serbia must not stand still” group demanded the vote.

The family‑subsidy programme remains active: the Alimentacion Fund supports 889 children, with 77 fathers paying alimony and 44 adult children still in school receiving aid, totalling 54 million dinars disbursed. Serbia’s pension system saw a new “protective supplement” announced by Vučić for the lowest‑pension earners, while Eurostat data highlight that 14.5 % of Serbian workers are on fixed‑term contracts, the highest in the region.

Domestically, Vučić pledged to stay in Serbia even if SNS loses, hinting at a possible resignation to seek the prime‑ministerial post. He is also courting U.S. support through a new strategic dialogue covering energy security, technology cooperation and space programs, underscoring a shift toward Western alignment ahead of the elections.
