Abstract

Ana Brnabić has been the first openly lesbian prime minister of Serbia for the past eight years and the first in the world to hold this position while having a wife and a child. Although this can be perceived as a revolutionary milestone in both regional and global advancements for LGBT+ rights, it is important to examine the actual impact she had on the advancement queer human rights in Serbia. Despite the state's formal displays of tolerance and acceptance, her legacy on a social level is ambivalent. While it promised radical change, this potential was generally not fulfilled.
