President Aleksandar Vucic has nominated Djuro Macut, a 62-year-old endocrinologist with no political background, as Serbia's prime minister amid ongoing protests. The protests were sparked by grievances over Vucic’s authoritarianism and government corruption, leading to the resignation of previous prime minister Milos Vucevic. Opponents argue that Macut is unqualified and will be loyal to Vucic, who seeks to maintain his control over Serbian politics. Despite this opposition, Macut is expected to be confirmed easily by the SNS-controlled parliament, which could indicate political continuity even as public dissent continues.
Despite opposition uproar, the nomination of Djuro Macut as prime minister appears poised for approval, ensuring Vucic's political continuity amid ongoing protests.
Opposition parties quickly dismissed Macut's candidacy, arguing he lacks the experience necessary for governance, stating his medical knowledge does not translate to political acumen.
