Big election day on 3rd of April in Serbia. In the presidential elections, the increasingly authoritarian incumbent Aleksandar Vučić is the clear favourite, as is his list in the parliamentary elections. Eight progressive opposition parties signed a cooperation agreement, but will this be enough to jeopardise Vučić’s overwhelming success? We will also discuss the impact of the war in Ukraine and Vučić's refusal to clearly condemn Russia's aggression on the election campaign.

In cooperation with the Institute for the Danube Region and Central Europe – IDM, the Political Academy of the ÖVP, and the Southeast European Cooperative Initiative (SECI)
