a moment of silence to honor the victims of tragedy in novi sad

these months of student-led protests across serbia have been truly cathartic. shame and resentment of the recent past, anger and apathy, precarity, helplessness, as if all of it transformed and fuelled a new hope

tomorrow marks three months since corruption and the arrogance of power claimed 15 lives in the northern city of novi sad. tonight, students from across serbia are gathering there. citizens have lined the streets to welcome them, and local students prepared beds for them to rest.

having full and accurate information about a country is crucial for a local OSCE mission

serbia does not have a presidential system; in fact, the role of the president is largely ceremonial. while the incumbent has indeed grabbed all power, we shouldn't legitimize such overreach

trump's "special envoy for special missions" gave his two gaslighting cents yesterday on protests in serbia. the irony is rich

* nb: every documented instance of violence has been perpetrated by police/secret services or pro-government thugs whose prosecution is now one of the students' demands

amid massive protests for justice and accountability in serbia, brussels chose to disregard systemic human rights violations, rampant corruption, and the partisan capture of state institutions by the autocratic regime.

that's it. that's the future history textbook footnote.

the red hand with splayed fingers has become the symbol of the ongoing protests in serbia, as a message to the government: "you have blood on your hands." tonight the ballerinas and the orchestra of the belgrade national theatre took a bow wearing red gloves on their hands
