The streets of Belgrade looked like a battlefield last night, with police clashing against blockaders who decided to stir up chaos. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić didn’t hold back praise for the police, emphasizing that only their calmness prevented the worst possible outcomes. “God knows how many citizens and police officers could have been hurt last night,” Vučić said, releasing footage of the start of the attack on police forces.
But who are these blockaders? Vučić called them terrorist organizations who knew exactly how to act and cause chaos. Analysts warn these are extremists planning serious mayhem in downtown Belgrade, with enemies of Serbia trying to turn people against each other.
The footage Vučić shared shows blockaders attacking police, but the police, professional and composed, managed to overpower the violent crowd. Director Vasiljević and all units involved in defending public order received praise for their work.
This conflict isn’t just a street fight between two sides; it’s a battle for control over the narrative and power in Serbia. While some see the police as heroes protecting order, others view the blockaders as fighters for justice and solidarity. But is it really that simple?
Violence isn’t stopping. Every day brings new clashes and threats, and the big question is how this situation will evolve. Vučić and the government claim they are ready to fight the chaos, but is that enough?
If you thought this was just another protest, think again. This is a war for the soul of Belgrade, and there’s no room for weakness. So, what do you think — who’s really to blame for this chaos? The police, the blockaders, or maybe someone else? Drop a comment and let’s see whose side you’re on!
