Vučić’s 12-year reign looks to have been ended by record turnout of voters in election provoked by student-led protests
The long-serving leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, has conceded defeat, ushering in a seismic political shift after a historic election that saw the increasingly authoritarian leader pitted against a student-led movement that had spent two years protesting his government.
Vučić pointed to preliminary results that suggested that voters had overwhelmingly backed the students, potentially giving them a majority in the country’s 250-seat parliament.
