Vucic said that the production of electric Panda would boost trade between Italy and Serbia above the current 4.6 billion euros a year. The current generation of the Fiat Panda is built near Naples in Italy, and the new model is expected around mid-2024. Stellantis, created in 2021 through the merger of France's PSA and Fiat Chrysler, and the Serbian government in 2022 signed a 190 million euro deal to produce electric vehicles in the Kragujevac plant which previously produced the Fiat 500L model.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic stepped down as leader of the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) at a party congress on Saturday, saying a new approach was needed to unite the country, but said he would remain head of state. Another anti-government protest is scheduled for later on Saturday. Leaders of the SNS accepted Vucic's resignation offer at the party congress in Kragujevac, central Serbia, and appointed defense minister Milos Vucevic to replace him, as Vucic had proposed. Opposition parties and rights watchdogs have long accused Vucic and the SNS of autocracy, stifling media freedoms, violence against political opponents, corruption and ties with organized crime. Vucic and his allies deny the accusations.

Guvernul sârb a promis că toate persoanele cu vârste de peste 25 de ani care se vor vaccina anti-COVID-19 până pe 31 mai vor primi echivalentul a 25 de euro ca premiu pentru ''responsabilitatea'' lor, relatează agenţia EFE. Până în prezent 22% din populaţia Serbiei a primit ambele doze de vaccin, procent mult peste cel de 9% din Uniunea Europeană. Preşedintele Vucic a promis că nu vor fi adoptate ''măsuri discriminatorii negative împotriva celor care nu doresc să se vaccineze'', dar a calificat decizia acestora drept ''iresponsabilă şi egoistă''. O iniţiativă de stimulare a interesului pentru vaccinare a venit şi din partea unui restaurant din oraşul sârb Kragujevac, care le oferă gratis o porţie de friptură sau de gulaş celor care se vaccinează anti-COVID-19. ''Afacerea noastră, cateringul, a fost afectată în mod special (...), iar dacă vaccinarea este soluţia, atunci dorim să contribuim şi noi'', a declarat agenţiei Reuters patronul restaurantului, Stavro Raskovic.
