The Trump circus dominates the news.

But there’s other events happening too - in countries where people are rising up against governments, fighting for democracy & accountability.

These photos are from Serbia & Georgia today. Capital cities brought to a standstill 🇷🇸🇬🇪

(Pls see ALT for more detail)
Tens of thousands of protestors can been seen blocking main streets in the capital of Serbia, Belgrade. These protests, happening in cities across the country, are again the populist government of Vucic. Close ally of Putin, his government is criticised for corruption and under investment. A disaster in the city of Novi Sad was the catalyst for protests. Many in Serbia believe the huge concrete canopy at a train station in the northern city fell down because of sloppy reconstruction work that resulted from corruption. 15 were killed. Photo credit to Radnik Sejtanov It is the 58th straight day of protests across cities in Georgia. In this photo, 100s of demonstrators are seen in the capital of Tbilisi. Two are carrying a large banner which reads “Georgia is alive & independent.” Protests are demanding new, free elections, the release of political detainees and membership of the European Union. The current regime is a puppet of Putin and has inflicted violence and torture on its citizens, hundreds of whom have been hospitalised.. This photo credit is to Marika Mikiashvili.
