Serbia's Vučić concedes election defeat to student-led protest movement
The country's populist right-wing leader of 12 years says it is "clear" his Serbian Progressive Party has lost.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story around student activism challenging Vučić, but BBC News foregrounds a neck-and-neck election and the Student List as the biggest challenge to his rule, while NPR places the Serbian development in a broader European protest context. BBC’s extract is focused on anti-corruption protests feeding into the contest, whereas NPR alone mentions student protests across Europe and says students have selected candidates for parliament.
