Opinie | De EU moet er ook zijn voor de burgers van Servië Balkan:In Servië heeft het corrupte regime van Vucic zijn legitimiteit verloren. De EU kan met hem geen zaken doen, meent Geert Luteijn.

"Als we in Europa de democratie serieus nemen dan moeten we de burgers in Servië ondersteunen in hun strijd tegen de corruptie." Stop het zakendoen met president Vucic

Massive crowds flood Belgrade as months of protests reach boiling point After sweeping the country, ever-growing anti-government demonstrations have circled back to the Serbian capital.

“Fear has changed sides in Serbia. The protests have shown that average citizens are not afraid anymore… now they see fear in the eyes of the government,” Dinko Gruhonjić told me for my latest on today’s ongoing protests in Belgrade: www.politico.eu/article/mass...

Ganz Europa wird heute nach #Serbien blicken. Mehrere Hunderttausende Menschen werden auf den Strassen sein. Studierende führen Proteste voller Freude & Zuversicht an. Regime hingegen postiert Schlägertrupps in der Stadt.

Hoffnung, Liebe & Solidarität sind die beste Antwort auf Gewalt & Furcht.

Seit gestern durchsucht serbische Polizei Büros von vier kritischen NGOs in Belgrad. Vorwand - Veruntreuung von Geldern von USAID - ist mehr als fadenscheinig. Es geht schlicht um offene Repression gegen Kritiker. Serbien ist ein EU-Kandidatenland, die EU muss schnell & unmissverständlich reagieren.

Great turnout at the anti-corruption/anti-Vucic protest at the Serbian Embassy in The Hague!

Wilders schreef een soort Kerstboodschap voor de radicaalrechtse website Breitbart. Geeft wel context aan de onderwijsbezuinigingen. De beste man wil blijkbaar de pandemie van ‘het woke mind virus’ bestrijden door de instituties af te breken en opnieuw te vormen.

Protest in Belgrade 22 December

With 100,000 protesters, the student-led demonstration against corruption held on Sunday in downtown Belgrade was one the largest rallies in Serbian history. The future’s in the air!

Na protestu na Slaviji više ljudi nego 5. oktobra: Arhiv javnih skupova objavio analizu Na protestu u nedelju na Slaviji bilo je oko 100.000 građana što je više nego 5. oktobra 2000, saopštio je Arhiv javnih skupova.

Protests in Belgrade brought around 100,000 people in the street last night. More than on 5th October when Milošević was overthrown. It might become a critical turning point for the regime's control.

Hardly anything is more powerful than the complete silence of tens of thousands of people. Standing together for justice and basic decency.
