The Republic Electoral Commission (RIK) has decided to allocate mandates to MPs who will fill vacant seats in the Serbian Parliament following confirmed resignations. Among those appointed are Andreja Savić and Dubravka Kralj, who will replace Aleksandar Antić and Aleksandra Pavlović Marković from the electoral list “Ivica Dačić – Prime Minister of Serbia.” This procedure is part of the regular process of filling parliamentary seats according to legal regulations. RIK also made decisions to fill seats in the National Council of the Bosniak National Minority following the resignation of Mustafa Fetić.
Political Perspectives:
Left: Left-leaning outlets tend to emphasize the transparency and legality of the mandate allocation process by RIK, highlighting the importance of democratic procedures and minority representation, such as the Bosniak National Minority Council. They may also stress the need for accountability and the role of opposition or smaller parties in the parliament.
Center: Center-leaning sources report the mandate allocation as a routine administrative procedure following resignations, focusing on the factual aspects of the replacements and the continuity of parliamentary work. They present the information neutrally without much political commentary.
Right: Right-leaning media might emphasize the stability and order maintained by the ruling parties through the mandate allocation, possibly highlighting the strength of the ruling coalition and the smooth transition of parliamentary seats. They may also underline the legitimacy of the process and the importance of maintaining government functionality.
