International reaction EU chief Ursula von der Leyen and Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar congratulated the Students' List on their victory. "We stand ready to support reforms on the rule of law, media freedom, the fight against corruption and strong democratic institutions, and to work together to advance Serbia's future in the European Union," von der Leyen said on X. Magyar said he had talked with the Students' List leaders and assured them of his country's support.

The movement’s broad platform centres on a pledge to fight corruption. https://www.wionews.com/world/serbia-s-student-led-movement-defeats-vucic-s-party-after-14-years-in-power-why-it-matters-1792979752047
