Chaos in Belgrade: Marinika Tepić Blames Vučić and Police, But Where Was the Opposition?
Last night, Belgrade was engulfed in chaos and street violence. Marinika Tepić, vice president of the Freedom and Justice Party, did not hesitate to blame Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and the Serbian police for everything that happened. On the platform X, she wrote that Vučić is responsible for the wild blockades and chaos in the city center. However, her message sparked a storm of criticism from her followers.
Where Was the Opposition?
Comments under her post were brutal: “Where were you? Where were your opposition friends? You could have stood in front of the police cordon yesterday, but you didn’t!” wrote disappointed citizens. Many reminded that a true opposition would not allow the people to be harassed but would stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Dragan Đilas, leader of SSP, criticized the police for the chaos, but many reminded that when he was the mayor of Belgrade, he had a completely different stance.
Police and Violence: Who’s to Blame?
While public debates rage, politicians like Vojislav Šešelj claim it was high time for police intervention and that the protests were violent and funded by external forces. On the other hand, analysts warn that the situation in Belgrade is getting tenser, and the regime is using inflation and uprisings to tear the country apart from within.
Details from the Ground
Kurir reporter Milan Vučković shared the latest updates from Belgrade’s streets, while MP Obradović posted a chessboard on social media as a metaphor for Vučić’s moves — always two steps ahead of everyone. All this while Serbia’s enemies try to turn people against each other, even children.
What’s Next?
The situation is serious, and violence continues. How to protect citizens and prevent street conflicts? Will the opposition finally stand with the people or keep bickering with the regime from afar? One thing is clear — Belgrade is burning, and the culprits are blaming each other while the people lose patience.
