Vučić resigns as Serbia’s president ahead of snap election

Aleksandar Vučić has resigned as Serbia’s president and will lead his ruling Serbian Progressive Party into a snap parliamentary election, according to Al Jazeera.

The report provides no further details about the resignation, the election timetable or arrangements for the presidency. It does not confirm whether Vučić will seek another office.

Vučić’s move shifts his role from head of state to party leader as the ruling party prepares to contest a parliamentary vote. The election’s outcome will determine the party’s position in the legislature.

The supplied report does not state who will serve as interim president or when a successor will be chosen.
