Nicușor Dan reacts after the victory of students in Serbia: "Romania is ready"
Published
The President of Romania, Nicușor Dan, reacted on Monday after Aleksandar Vučić acknowledged his defeat in the elections in Serbia. The result was a surprise for many observers, as students and the opposition achieved an important success against the governing party.
In his statement, the Romanian head of state said that "Romania is ready". The message was interpreted as a reaction to events in the neighbouring country, which have drawn the attention of public opinion across the region. Serbia is a close neighbour of Romania, and political developments there are of particular interest to Romanians in the western part of the country.
The students' victory comes after months of protests and civic movements in Serbia. The protesters demanded transparency, accountability and political reforms. Those who supported this movement say that political changes must respect the will of citizens expressed through the vote.
So far, no complete details have been provided about the future government or the next steps of the new political situation in Serbia. Observers will closely monitor how the new institutions will be formed and the relations between Belgrade and neighbouring states, including Romania.
