Thousands Flood the Streets of Belgrade in Anti-Government Protest

Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, on a Saturday night. Thousands of people on the streets protesting against the sitting government and its de facto leader president Aleksandar Vucic. The opposition movement - Protest Against Dictatorship - are calling for electoral reform and freedom in the media - and against what they see as an increasingly autocratic rule by the sitting president. "I support these people, my people, my country, against the dictatorship and the violence conducted by the government," says protestor Dalibor Kocic. "Everything is wrong," confirms Natasha Vranic. "We don't have freedom in the media. We don't have freedom for journalists." The protests were ignited by a brutal attack on an opposition politician in central Serbia in late November. It then developed into a broader call for an end to political violence - for media freedom and for free and fair elections. A week ago there were an estimated 35-40,000 people on the streets - this time the number has risen to 50,000 according to local media. President Vucic has denied all accusations of involvement in the attack on the politician that started the protest. He has also said the he is ready to go to the polls - and that even 5 million people would protest if he were to meet the demands of the protest movement and the opposition. Serbia has a population of seven million. For a month thousands of people have taken to the streets in weekly protests. The open question now is - IF the opposition movement can keep the momentum going and more importantly if the sitting government and president Aleksandar Vucic at some point will be forced to listen and to react to the call for change.
