Protests in Serbia are not calming down, which shows that many citizens do not want to wait for elections but want them immediately, German-language media report after the protests and clashes on Vidovdan.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There were arrests and injuries in violent clashes between police and demonstrators during mass protests against the authorities in Belgrade,” reports Germany’s largest news agency dpa, as conveyed by Deutsche Welle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report states that there were around 140,000 people at the protests, although the authorities announced a significantly lower number, around 36,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Demonstrators traveled to Belgrade from all over the country on Saturday. Many held Serbian flags and signs with the name of their town,” the agency writes and reminds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Serbia has been shaken for more than half a year by the strongest protests since the 1990s. The trigger was the collapse of the Novi Sad railway station canopy last November, when 16 people died.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The authorities are under strong pressure, dpa assesses. It is reported that students accuse the authorities of violence, claiming that they could have resolved the political crisis by calling elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The public broadcaster ARD, in an agency report on its portal, reminds that Serbian President Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 “has been steering the country since 2012, changing positions.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
