Published: 7/4/2025

Serbian anti-corruption protesters, now in their ninth month, have shifted tactics from rallies to roadblocks after demanding new elections and facing a government stalemate. The protests, sparked by the Novi Sad railway disaster, have evolved into a movement against President Vucic and his Progressive Party's leadership. Recent police crackdowns and arrests have sparked backlash and condemnation from various sectors. Despite the ongoing roadblocks and civil disobedience, doubts linger on the movement's effectiveness in demanding accountability and change in Serbia.
