Belgrade's historic day of anger: Hundreds of thousands of Serbians protest for 'laws and justice that work'
Belgrade's historic day of anger: Hundreds of thousands of Serbians protest for 'laws and justice that work'
The country's authoritarian president Aleksandar Vucic was the protestors' main target at the large anti-corruption demonstration, following the fatal accident at the Novi Sad train station. Saturday's movement was reminiscent of those that led to the fall of former dictator Slobodan Milosevic in 2000.

While the world awaits the Russian-Ukrainian ceasefire, Israel violates its signature on the Gaza ceasefire, committing the same war crime of starving the Palestinian population and refusing to enter the 2nd phase it agreed to.

Israel halts all aid to Gaza, delays negotiations for phase two of the ceasefire

About 1/6 of the total population of Serbia protested government malfeasance today. In the US that would be more than fifty million people.

The mistake is to think Zelensky could have salvaged this. Trump admin just doesn’t want to support Ukraine. Period. There was also never going to be a peace agreement. That’s been clear but everyone has been pretending otherwise. There can be no confusion now.

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.
