Thousands demonstrate after irregularities in parliamentary elections in Serbia

An international observer mission consisting of representatives from the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), the EU Parliament and the European Council reported on Monday a number of"irregularities" during the ballot, including cases of violence, vote buying and the stuffing of ballot boxes with fake ballot papers.

According to the opposition, tens of thousands of residents of the Bosnian Serb republic of Republika Srpska were also brought in on buses to cast their votes illegally in Belgrade.

Vucic had called the new parliamentary elections himself. Since he first took office in 2014 - when he was still Prime Minister - government cabinets in Serbia rarely last until the end of a legislative period. Critics see this as a maneuver to obstruct the opposition.
