Justice is the basic ingredient that makes a society sustainable. And in Serbia, the former state whose anthem is “God of Justice!”, justice no longer exists. And it must be re-established if we want a society and a state to exist…

The so-called ‘student protests’ in Serbia have become a nationwide movement seeking justice. On Saturday, February 8, protests were held in 59 cities in Serbia. I have no information for Sunday, February 9, but you can find details and announcements on the website “Where to protest”.

This time, instead of a statistical report, I can offer you a report from the protest in Smederevo. The gathering began on Sunday at 5:00 PM, with a blockade of the city’s largest traffic intersection…

The rebellion is therefore born, and it must be rocked…

After a quarter of a century of ruthless plunder and the destruction of statehood, it has finally become clear to the majority that the territory they live in has been colonized, and that they have become slaves who have been deprived of even the right to life – as the case of the Novi Sad railway station shows. And now the meaning of point 2 from Willy Wimmer’s letter to German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder on May 2nd, 2000 is becoming clear to people (Serbian and German):

2. The organizers declared that the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is excluded from any legal order, and above all outside the Helsinki Final Act.

So, justice has been abolished for the Serbs, and it is logical that the protest was dominated by messages demanding justice:

At the very beginning of this, as well as every other protest in this series, tribute was paid to the victims of corruption, who tragically died under the SNS canopy at the Novi Sad train station. It was 15 minutes of that thunderous silence in which the only sound that could be heard was the buzzing of drone above our heads…

Although the temperature was below zero, several thousand people gathered at the protest, which is not a small number for Smederevo. As far as I can remember, there weren't this many of them even during the anti-Milosevic protests. This shows that the people are really fed up with everything.

And of course, Serbs can’t go into rebellion without their fiddle:

It was very difficult to estimate the number of people present, because none of the streets along which the protest passed was long enough to see the entire procession.

Along the entire route, people followed, filmed, and greeted the procession from balconies, storefronts, and windows:

While waiting for the drone footage, I took the widest shot from the ground in front of the Cultural Center, where you could roughly guess how many people were in attendance.

The meeting ended with the choir singing the anthem “God of Justice!”, thus reminding the criminal regime once again that it will not give up its demands. And God will, as always, provide Justice, but…

Only the people can implement Justice. It depends on the current regime whether it will be by grace or by force.

And since the demands obviously won't be met so quickly, a new protest is scheduled for next week, February 16th. See you!
