Serbian National Assembly Speaker and Serbian Progressive
Party representative Ana Brnabic has proposed amending the country’s
constitution to allow Aleksandar Vučić to run for president again.
Brnabic made the proposal during a visit to election-related
sites in Belgrade, N1
reports.
Although parliamentary elections have not yet been formally
called, Brnabic urged party supporters to back Vucic, N1 reported.
“We’re all going to vote, right? So after that, while Vučić
is prime minister, we’ll change the constitution, and then he can become
president again. There you go — we have a solution for everything,” she said.
Vučić’s second presidential term ends in 2027. Under
Serbia’s constitution, he would then be barred from running again for president.
Vučić previously said Serbia’s parliamentary elections would
be held on either Oct. 18 or Oct. 25.
In July 2026, Vučić said he would step down as head of state
a few days after parliamentary elections were announced.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
