Police on Edge, Rector Backs Blockaders – What’s Brewing Before Vidovdan?
Get your popcorn ready, because Serbia is gearing up for another street showdown! General Dejan Luković from the Ministry of Interior says the police are “more ready than ever” for tomorrow’s protests. Their mission? Keep public order, protect citizens, property, and institutions. But can they really pull it off when the pressure on police is already sky-high and incidents threaten to explode?
Police on High Alert
General Luković admits the pressure is intense, with equipment damage and injured officers, though thankfully no serious injuries. He urges citizens to behave civilly and obey the law because “violence will not be tolerated.” The police are ready to stop any attempts to storm institutions or cause chaos on the streets.
Rector Sides with Blockaders – Shock or Support?
While police prepare their shields, the Rector of the University of Belgrade, Vladan Đokić, publicly stands up for the arrested blockaders. The rector’s council condemned the arrests and called for dialogue and peace. But is this just academic solidarity or backing for those who planned blockades, called for violence, and even the assassination of the Serbian president?
Protests Dividing the Nation
The protests scheduled for June 28, Vidovdan, have already stirred a storm of reactions. Some see them as a fight for rights and youth voice, others label them “paid extremists” wanting “Serbian blood to spill.” Bridge blockades, property destruction, calls for violence – all casting a shadow over peaceful protest.
Who’s to Blame for the Chaos?
Is it the police’s fault for preparing for clashes? Or the students and blockaders who refuse to abandon violent tactics? And the rector? His support for the arrested only complicates things further.
What Awaits on Vidovdan?
Tomorrow will show if Serbia can survive another day without violence or if the streets will turn into a battlefield again. The police are ready, but is society?
Conclusion
This drama isn’t just a clash between police and protesters. It’s a mirror of a divided society, where everyone fights for their piece of truth. What do you think? Will the protests bring change or just chaos? Drop a comment, maybe your word will break the silence!
