Serbia's presidential run-off election kicked off on Sunday, which is seen by analysts as a referendum on the Balkan country's future.
Starting from 7:00 a.m. local time (0600 GMT), some 6.72 million eligible voters began casting their ballots to choose between the pro-Western incumbent President Boris Tadic and his pro-Russian rival Tomislav Nikolic.
This is the first election to be held under Serbia's new constitution that went into effect after Montenegro declared independence from a union with Serbia in 2006. Source: Xinhua
