Following a weekend election described as a seismic shift in Serbian politics, the Student List movement has begun the process of forming a government. The movement, which emerged from a series of anti-government protests over the last two years, secured a victory that ended the 14-year rule of former president Aleksandar Vučić. Vučić formally conceded the defeat on Sunday evening.

While the movement is now tasked with governance, it faces the challenge of operating without a clear, singular leader and lacks prior experience in formal government administration. Supporters celebrated the outcome in the streets on Monday, signaling a public desire for a change in the country's nationalist political direction. The transition marks a notable departure from the previous administration, which had been characterized by critics as increasingly authoritarian. The focus for the Student List now shifts to coalition building and establishing a policy agenda to address the issues that fueled their rise during the recent protest movements.
