Serbia's Ruling Party, in Power for 14 Years, Loses General Election to Student-Led Force
Published
In Serbia, the ruling force that had held power for 14 years was defeated in the general election held on October 25, 2026. In this election, a political force led by students won victory.
The ruling force, led by President Aleksandar Vučić, had exercised great influence in Serbian politics for a long time. It was sometimes called an "iron fortress" that was not easily toppled. However, in this general election, a new political force centered on students gained the support of voters and challenged the existing power, and the ruling force ultimately suffered defeat.
Interest in this result is also growing in South Korea. Some media outlets have introduced the Serbian case and emphasized that even political forces that have maintained power for a long time can be changed through elections. The fact that young generations have stood at the center of political change has also drawn attention.
The result of this election shows that the longer a ruling force stays in power, the harder it becomes to ignore voters' demands for change. Going forward, it will be necessary to keep watching what policies Serbia's new government pursues and how it responds to public expectations.
