After meeting with representatives of nine political lists that announced participation in the elections, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić announced that parliamentary and local elections in Serbia will be held on 21 June.
He addedd that the opinion of health experts will be taken into account regarding the election campaign.
If all goes well, the Serbian parliament will lift the state of emergency on Wednesday, which is why the question of elections re-emerged.
The elections have been scheduled for 26 April but were postponed due to the COVID-19 epidemic.
Vučić said that he accepted the proposal of some political parties to have 38 days for the election campaign before the date of the elections, which is why the parliamentary and local elections in most municipalities will be held on 21 June.
According to him, major electoral rallies are not expected in May, especially indoors, while as for June, the opinion of doctors will be considered.
Commenting that there are not enough notaries-public to certify signatures, Vučić said that the political parties that will run in the elections made an agreement that in addition to notaries-public, the municipal certifying authorities will also certify signatures of support.
