Tens of thousands rally in Serbia against authoritarian President Vucic
Tens of thousands of people joined a big rally on Saturday called by Serbia’s protesting university students despite efforts by the government of the authoritarian President Aleksandar Vucic to curb mass demonstrations that shook his hard-line rule last year.
Protesters streamed into a central square in the capital Belgrade from several directions, many carrying banners and wearing T-shirts inscribed with the “Students win” motto of the youth-movement.
Columns of cars drove into Belgrade from other Serbian towns earlier in the day.
