Tens of thousands of people gathered Monday evening at Slavija Square in Belgrade to celebrate a major victory for the student-led movement in Serbia’s parliamentary elections.
Anja Jezdimirovic, a student, said she is optimistic about her country’s future after two years of fighting for change.
The seismic shift came after two years of relentless organizing and sustained protests by the student movement, which accused the Kremlin-backed Vucic of increasing authoritarianism, connections to organized crime and runaway corruption.
After Vucic stunned the Balkan country Sunday evening by conceding defeat in an election against student-backed candidates, ecstatic young revelers filled the streets of Belgrade and ripped down the cordons around the encampment known as Caciland. Before long, the barricades lay tossed aside, and the tents within went up in smoke, along with Vucic's power.
