  1. There is literally no place in the streets for so many people and they are still arriving.

  2. Serbia: we are mildly annoyed and everyone is filling the streets

    US: we are descending into fascism and have a constitution designed for handling that scenario, but I’m le tired. 

  3. They don’t care about EU or Russia. The protest is against madness, lies and corruption.
    The government is supported by EU and Russia, still, they won’t save them from THIS.

  4. That’s the kind of thing I like to see. Wish we could do that in France too

  6. Took me 30 min to pass 30m to find my friends near the National Assembly. So many people, it is unbelievable

  8. Wow how many are there. Respect everybody on the street. Wish this was Washington or Ney York

  9. The lazy Americans should look to Europe for instructional on how to get off their fat asses and protest.

  11. Now that’s what I call a “Historical Picture”. Should be put up on a museum

  12. from The Guardian:

    “From the streets of Belgrade, the cracks in President Aleksandar Vučić’s [near-decade-long authoritarian grip](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/apr/04/serbia-president-aleksandar-vucic-claims-election-victory-to-secure-second-term) on power have become impossible to ignore. After more than four months of largely peaceful student-led protests, frustration with the regime appears to have reached breaking point.

    The country is gearing up for a massive anti-government protest today, as thousands of students and citizens prepare to rally against the Serbian administration. Many residents describe the capital as feeling “under siege”, with the authorities implementing extreme measures that critics argue are designed to intimidate and prevent people from attending the demonstration.”

  13. Amazing to see. I hope it brings about change in your country.

  15. Damn I know they robbed jokic of the MVP but chill guys

  18. Saw that the puppet media stated: “Stay inside, romanian people will cross the border to loot your home!”

    As a romanian I can tell you to not worry about this, we are busy with our pro democracy protest at the moment.

    Stay strong, stay safe.✊️

  20. Keep it up! I hope the protesters will be able to achieve their goals

  21. I don’t know what other word to use, because English is not my first language. But I am proud of you Serbians. This is beautiful!

  22. After the canopy of a recently renovated train station fell and killed 15 people in November, the anti corruption student led protests in Serbia are reaching its culmination with the biggest one in Belgrade in Serbia’s entire history. Current estimates put a number at around 800,000 people (out of 6.6 million).

    Few days ago, the ruling party attempted to fool the public by installing their own fake 40 year old students (ćaci) in the park in front of the Parliament building, in a pathetic attempt to show that they still have support. These people are paid to be there, of course from our money. Many of them have been recognised by their neighbours as low level bureaucrats in their municipalities, always part of the ruling SNS party.

    The government tried to stop people from coming by obstructing the railway transport with a convenient false bomb threat. They also stopped all intercity public transport, including even the buses from privately owned firms by threatening them.

    This morning, the day of the protest, as expected, they stopped all of Belgrade’s public transport, leaving many people without a way to even get to work.

    In spite of all this, the people have gathered in numbers surpassing every other protest in Serbia by a large margin. Current estimates are placing the number at more than 800,000 people, and the mass is still gathering. The whole city is at a complete standstill, crowds are everywhere. For comparison, the protest of 2000 when Slobodan Milošević was overthrown counted roughly 100,000 people. The total population of Belgrade is around 1.5 million.

    We’re fighting for justice, nothing more, nothing less. 13 years of corruption and poor management which culminated in the deaths of 15 innocent people just waiting for their train brought us to this historical moment. The will of the people will prevail! This can no longer be stopped!

    Thanks for all your support, Europe!

  23. Боже драги знао сам да има много људи који протестују али нисам знао да их је толико

  24. As someone who has been to Belgrade, this is hard to fathom even with pictures. Incredible work Serbs.

  25. WOW! We’re literally all Serbians on days like today! I wish all my Serbian friends and family a very good protest day!

  26. You have our full support from Greece 🇬🇷

    We’ll fight corruption together brothers
