Vučić resigns to run for Serbian prime minister
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić resigned and plans to run for prime minister in snap parliamentary elections in October. He cannot seek a third presidential term. The contest follows prolonged student-led protests and political unrest, and will test whether his Serbian Progressive Party can preserve its grip on government.
Why it matters
The resignation is a bid to transfer Vučić's political power from the presidency to the premiership.
