The European Commission published a joint statement on October 27, 2026, by High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission Kaja Kallas and Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos, dedicated to Serbia's early parliamentary elections. Voting took place on Sunday, October 25, and according to the statement, achieved historically high voter turnout. Brussels emphasized that Serbian citizens clearly expressed their position, providing the country's new government with a significant mandate for implementing change. EU representatives stated that they expect to see this mandate translated into practice through concrete political decisions and reforms. The statement reflects the European Union's interest in political processes in Serbia, which remains a candidate for EU membership and is conducting negotiations on integration into European structures. Elections in the country traditionally attract Brussels's attention in the context of assessing democratic institutions and reforms necessary for advancing on the path of European integration. Details regarding specific voting results, distribution of parliamentary seats, and further steps in government formation are not provided in the statement text. The EU limited itself to a general assessment of the election results and expression of expectations regarding the future work of Serbian authorities.
