Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic on Sunday nominated Djuro Macut, a 62-year-old endocrinologist, as the new Prime Minister (PM).

Macut, who is head of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Belgrade, and deputy director of the clinic for endocrinology, diabetes and metabolic diseases at the University Clinical Center of Serbia, will succeed Milos Vucevic as PM.

Vucevic announced his resignation on Jan. 28 over "elevated tensions" following the collapse of the awning at Novi Sad railway station in November 2024, which claimed 16 lives.

The National Assembly of Serbia confirmed the resignation of Vucevic on March 19 this year.
