2012 Serbian parliamentary election in the context of "Aleksandar Vučić"

Ivica Dačić (Serbian Cyrillic: Ивица Дачић, pronounced [îʋitsa dâtʃitɕ]; born 1 January 1966) is a Serbian politician serving as deputy prime minister of Serbia since 2022 and minister of internal affairs since 2024. He has been the leader of the Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) since 2006.

Dačić graduated from the University of Belgrade in 1989 and joined SPS in 1991. He quickly rose up the ranks of the party, becoming its spokesman in 1992, under his mentor, Slobodan Milosević, President of Serbia and FR Yugoslavia. After the fall of Milošević, he served as the minister of information in a transitional government from 2000 to 2001. Dačić became SPS party leader in 2006. Like his predecessor Milošević, he is regarded as a pragmatic leader willing to change views based on circumstance and has worked to reform the party. Dačić led SPS into a government with the Democratic Party (DS) in 2008, after which he became the first deputy prime minister and minister of internal affairs, roles which he served until 2012. The DS–SPS government reached an EU candidate status. After the 2012 parliamentary election, SPS formed a coalition government with the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS); Dačić was elected prime minister. The SNS–SPS government pursued the European Union to start formal negotiations for the accession of Serbia and he signed the Brussels Agreement on the normalisation of relations of governments of Serbia and Kosovo.

The cabinet of Đuro Macut was formed on 16 April 2025, following the latter's election as Prime Minister of Serbia by the National Assembly on the same day. It succeeded the cabinet of Miloš Vučević.

The Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) came to power in 2012. After the 2023 Serbian parliamentary election, Aleksandar Vučić, the president of Serbia, gave Miloš Vučević the mandate to form a government. He was elected in May 2024, but resigned amidst anti-corruption protests in January 2025. After the acknowledgment of his resignation by the National Assembly in March, negotiations were held to form a new government. Vučić gave Macut the mandate to form a government in early April.
