SERBIAN ELECTION 2020

The ruling Serbian Progressive Party achieved a victory by winning 75.2% of seats in the June 2020 parliamentary election, boycotted by most of the opposition and after which there will be almost no parliamentary opposition. Numerous irregularities which greatly influenced the electoral outcome were documented on election day and during the electoral campaign, which unofficially continued during the State of Emergency.

A dialogue on electoral conditions, mediated by representatives of the European Parliament, did not achieve significant results, as most of the opposition parties stood behind their decision to boycott the election, while electoral conditions did not improve. The political crisis in Serbia will continue and deepen after the election, demanding additional engagement from the European Union.
