Celebrations erupted across Belgrade as Serbia's student-backed movement claimed a major election victory

In just under two years the students have succeeded in tearing up 14 years of political dominance under Aleksandar Vučić.

Aleksandar Vucic has held power in Serbia since 2014, and his defeat heralds a new political era for the Balkan country.

Seismic political shift as youth movement topples right-wing party

High turnout and gathering tensions marked the highly contested parliamentary election that was a showdown between Vucic and university students.

It was a seismic political shift in the Balkan country where Vucic, who had been endorsed by Russian President Vladimir Putin and who denounced the student movement as a foreign-led attempt to unseat him, led with virtually absolute power for 14 years.

In a seismic political shift, Serbia's longtime strongman leader Aleksandar Vucic has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in the country's parliamentary elections.

Serbia's elections came after almost two years of student-led demonstrations against perceived corruption and creeping authoritarianism.

The populist right-wing leader of 12 years says it is "clear" his party has lost the vote billed as a referendum on the country's future.
