Good news, better late than never
In Serbia, publicly stating your opinion apparently now is considered as a threat to the constitutional order, following head of ruling party SNS, who once again accuses
University professor Gruhonjic in Novi Sad.
This is not the first high-level threat against professor and journalist Gruhonjic.
My two cents about the developments and protests in Serbia for the main news @tagesschau.bsky.social in Germany

Novi Sad 🖤
After 16 days and more than 400km by foot, students from Novi Pazar have arrived in Novi Sad tonight ❤️
Unser Gast @alekstomanic.bsky.social erzählt, wie sie vor 25 Jahren mit der Otpor!-Bewegung Milošević stürzte – und wir sprechen darüber, warum die Menschen 25 Jahre später wieder gegen einen Autokraten auf die Straße gehen müssen.

Und wieder gibt es Neues vom @ballaballa-balkan.bsky.social !
25 Jahre sind seit dem Sturz Miloševićs vergangen. Und wieder wird in Serbien gegen ein autoritäres Regime demonstriert. Mit @alekstomanic.bsky.social sprechen wir über Parallelen, Unterschiede und verpasste Chancen
Ich durfte endlich mal wieder ausführlich "von früher" erzählen ✊🥹
Danke Jungs! Vielen Dank für die Einladung 💙
Wake up, Serbia! Pumpaj:
The Student Uprising

Ya hemos visto antes en Serbia procesos judiciales que han servido solo para aparentar que hay un sistema judicial”.
La politóloga y economista Aleksandra Tomanic indica por WhatsApp desde Serbia: “Esto [las imputaciones] es demasiado poco y llega demasiado tarde. Apenas hay altos cargos en la cárcel, mientras que hay decenas de estudiantes en prisión, por manifestarse.
... 🧵
Denn die Menschen gehen für Demokratie, Rechtsstaat, Pressefreiheit und Transparenz, also für europäische Werte, auf die Straße!"
Auf die Frage, ob die EU Serbien verloren hat, antwortet die Wirtschaftswissenschaftlerin Aleksandra Tomanić: "Man muss die Frage anders stellen. Die Ereignisse in Serbien zeigen nämlich, dass sich die EU selbst verloren hat.
… 🧵
Nicht nur in „eine Garage“, sondern in die Garage des serbischen Regierungsgebäudes
„Mit dieser Art von Beitrittspolitik macht Europa sich unglaubwürdig und trampelt auf seinen eigenen Werten herum. Aleksandar Vucic zeigt sein wahres Gesicht. Europa sollte genau hinschauen.“
Endlich klare Worte.
The house detention of Luka has been prolonged from 30 to 60 days. He has done nothing wrong, but is still being treated like a criminal.
Meanwhile people beating up or driving into students get amnestied by the president.
Das ganze war extrem demütigend und entwürdigend.
Die Anweisungen die Blume abzunehmen kam von der deutschen Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner.
Today should only be about remembering and commemorating, united by respect and pain, in silence.

Luka, a student from Zrenjanin, heavily beaten by police, while following their orders with his hands up.
After several operations, he was handcuffed to his hospital bed in Belgrade like a criminal.
Everything is upside-down in Serbia.
Their hands are getting bloodier every day.
Huge wave of arrests today in Serbia
Across Serbia, citizens are blocking streets. They are committed to stay. Civil disobedience in the whole country.
Novi Sad, Smederevo, Niš, Čačak, Užice, Zrenjanin .... and here you can see all the different locations in Belgrade 👇
Serbia today.
Still demanding justice for 16 dead of Novi Sad
In case you wonder why there are no EU flags during the current protests and why citizens are uniting and gathering under the slogan: "you are not going to dig"
The Jadar mining site lies in the middle of a flood area and above a big source of drinking water.
What will be more valuable and expensive and in a few years time?
Infrastructure is in a desolate state. Railways, being seen as the main transport means for the mining project, are in desperate condition, leading to regular derailments. Imagine when they start carrying sulfuric acid.
State capture is not just an abstract political concept but lived reality.
Institutions are weak and serve party political interest, as does the judiciary.
Serbia is in a political and societal crisis since more than 6 months.
Corruption has killed 16 people in Novi Sad, clearly showing that institutions are not capable of guaranteeing the safety of a simple reconstruction project. But will a highly demanding mining project?
