Vučić exits presidency after 9 years, vows 'decent and modern' Serbia

Aleksandar Vučić delivered a farewell address on his final day as President of Serbia, praising his own record and framing his 14-year rule as a transition to a 'decent and modern' country. The speech notably included a controversial justification of violence against victims, which may signal a hardening of his political legacy. This marks a leadership transition in Serbia, though Vučić's influence is likely to persist through his party and potential new roles.
