Loudest 16 minutes of silence I've ever heard.
One year. 16 dead. Zero accountability.
Novi Sad remembers. And we will never forget.

we'll think of something
Serbia has been engaged in the biggest student anti-government protests since the 90's, when the students demanded the end to the terror regime of Slobodan Milosevic. Today, they are demanding official government accountability for many things, but the start of it was the tragedy of November 1st, when a railway station that was supposed to have been renovated collapsed and killed 15 people. Almost all the universities in Serbia are blocked by students, who have overtaken the buildings of their universities and faculties and are sleeping there as a part of student blocades. In the past couple of weeks, high schools all over Serbia joined the blockades, as have the agricultural workers. This is HUGE, because this is a product of decades of Aleksandar Vucic and SNS's terror government that has stolen, murdered, robbed, and opressed the people of Serbia since they came in power. The government is lying about fulfilling the students' demands, they have been sending paid thugs to beat on the protesters and to drive their cars into the masses, they've intimidated and arrested peaceful protesters and still the protests continue, because students are not giving up now as they didn't give up in the 90s.
Today, on the 22.12.2024, at 16h, there is a huge protest planned in the centre of Belgrade. What's enough is enough, and people have spoken. This corrupt government cannot and should not stand, not anymore. I know this site is notoriously "western"-centric, but this is important and monumental, and I need you to know it. This is important for all of the Balkans, all of the ex-Yu countries, and to every one of us who has watched and despaired over the situation in the Balkans since the war.
No pasaran!
