Assessment

Read the full assessment

Following the Student List's electoral victory in Serbia, the judiciary has initiated actions against the previous establishment, including the revival of stalled cases and a stated need for prison capacity expansion. While this signals a potential shift towards rule of law and political realignment, the Student List's lack of parliamentary mandates raises uncertainty regarding its direct influence on these judicial processes. The durability and independence of these reforms remain to be confirmed.
